Dear President Trump and the Republican Party of the United States,
Canada is a federation of 10 provinces, each with sovereignty equal to, if not greater than, the states in your Union, whose sovereignty and rights you are such great champions of.
Therefore Canada would not become the 51st state. It would become the 51st, 52nd, 53rd, 54th, 55th, 56th, 57th, 58th, 59th and 60th states. Each with two senators and a proportional number of representatives in Congress.
Your kind offer of joining your Union has been accepted. Please prepare accommodations for 20 new senators and dozens of new representatives, and kindly inform Senator John Thune and Congressman Mike Johnson there will be new elections for Senate majority leader and Speaker of the House.
Please do not worry about security for the new senators and representatives, which will be provided by units of Joint Task Force 2 that will be arriving shortly in the DC Metro area.
*Note that the common measure of “economic success” is GDP, which does not include public sector or exports. As a result the country with the smallest public sector per captia and the least amount of exports looks significantly better than it actually is.
Just found the response:
All good, except we Canadians don’t want to be Americans. Like ever. Under any circumstance whatsoever. I’ll die Canadian.
Fucking rights.
it’s cute but no, he’s fucked up enough that he might accept and I have absolutely no interest in being part of their union under any circumstances.
Yup, Canada is freer and richer* than the US.

Not an actual option, of course, just to get them to remember the saying “Be careful what you wish for…”
Don’t forget our three territories, all of which need full representation…
And our provinces are so large they should each be split in 5, making us the 51-102 states.
A reverse electoral conquest would be galaxy brain levels of geopolitics
