Canada the 51st State? I have a better idea.

80% of Canada's 41 million citizens live within 100 miles of the U.S. border, and 100% of all Canadians go to Florida in the winter, so they might as well just all join the U.S.

But, Canada consists of ten provinces that are like states. How would they feel about joining the U.S. as one state? More likely as ten states.

And how could one star be added to the American flag without it looking odd? Much easier to add ten stars.

Finally, Canada comprises a larger land area than the entire United States. So it would seem odd to have one state that is bigger than the other 50 states combined.

For that reason, I hope all my Canadian friends vote to join us as ten states. We'll gladly welcome you all!
