If Canada did join the USA, Q, (perish the thought!) it would do so as 10 or more states, not 1. Have you seen the size of Canada? Are you aware we are divided into 10 provinces and a couple of territories (in the north) already? Therefore the situation would be quite different from what you are saying, since each of the 10 new states would have 2 senators apiece like any other state does! Big difference in the Senate, smaller difference in the House.

Rapaire, you guys on your side of the line can use any danged rifle you want. I would probably go for a good 30-30 with a telescopic sight.

Just aim at my hat. It will be placed on some useful place that is some fair distance away from where I will be positioned.
