New Columbia would be interesting, but I would welcome the State of Alberta as well, IF they decided to join us. More oil please!
Oh, I would love a State of Alberta, plus states of Saskatchewan, Manitoba and British Columbia (if it changed its name) while we're at it. It seems to me like we'd get 8 new GOP Senators from Canada's Western Provinces. And yes, the oil sands would be quite a sweetener. : )
