Why Canada Isn’t Going to Become the 51st State: Cleo Paskal

"Canada is not going to become the 51st state, just for sheer structural reasons…We'd have more representatives in Congress than California would, and they wouldn't be MAGA voters. It would completely destabilize the the US political system from the inside…Imagine 30 or 40 Canadian Bernie-Sanders-type representatives.

…So it's like Quebec separation, it becomes this storm, this Sturm und Drang in the system that obscures what's really going on.

And I think what's really going on is the US is saying your border is insecure. You are a security threat in a whole bunch of different ways, and we're protecting you—and have been for a long time—and we want this sorted out."

"Canada is allowing criminal activity in Canada that spills over into the US, including around fentanyl…The Sinaloa Cartel, the Chinese triads and the Iranians [are] working out of the Port of Vancouver… We have been and continue to be a security risk to the US. We are a net security detractor, not a provider."
