It's hilarious that they think the US would even let them join. Maybe if they are lucky they would be declared a us territory or something similar to Puerto Rico.
They wouldn't have a say in government. Why would America bring them into the fold. Oil? America would be better off keeping them landlocked and desperate with their only options to sell oil to America or back to Canada for pennies on the dollar. Or wait for the oil industry to collapse because nothing can be sold and then when Alberta is desperate, come in and sweep up everything for American companies to buyout cheap and then keep Albertans as wage slaves.
