Residents of Alberta seem to be the most open to the concept of Canada joining the US as a new state, an idea US President Donald Trump has repeatedly floated over the past couple of months.
A new poll conducted by Research Co. on tariffs in Canada asked whether respondents were on board with the notion of initiating a formal process for Canada to become an American state, and Alberta led the pack in being the most responsive to it.
Alberta leads Canada in support of joining the United States, with 12% of respondents saying they would “definitely consider it,” followed by 7% saying they would “probably consider it.”
90% is just a guess since that apparently wasn’t the question that was asked, but with only 12% willing to confidently say they’d at least consider it getting to 1 in 5 “okay with it” is quite a stretch.
Imagine the Saddledome completely sold out. This means 2,315 of those people want to ‘definitely consider’ and 1,350 would ‘probably consider’ joining the United fucking States.
