What would be the greatest contributions?

1. A&W poutine
2. Nature and resources
3. People and policies?

Those motherfrickers love them some Tim Hortons but I think it's way overrated.

Edit: I'll go with:

Annex it, use it for pipeline building and timber. Exhaust the resources then give it back

One great contribution we would get from the Canadians is when your meal is over at a restaurant you clean up your table the best you can as to not look like a slob when you leave the establishment.

It’s beautiful country up there. The US needs a purge instead of raping someone else’s resources.

They can't be a state. Too many Canadians have lived without the 1st and 2nd Amendments. I hate to say that but that's the truth. They would vote away freedom in a heartbeat.

Don't do it. It is not an accretive transaction. It is dilutive. Canada GDP per capita: $53k. USA: $81k. 60% higher than Canada. We only take those who boost us, not make our GDP per capita worse.

Why do you think Alaska and Hawaii were taken in as states, but not Puerto Rico? Bc it will major dilute. That and 50 is a round number

If this happens and we ever lose an Olympic Ice Hockey again, it would be a massive upset.

If you think we took Alaska & Hawaii in because they had higher p/capita GDPs, then...YIKES!

I guess maybe Texas and Alaska wouldn't be cool with being the juniors geographically.
