If you're advocating for Annexing Canada, or at least Quebec, there's a meaningful amount of support for this within Canada.

The only real opposition to this in the USA will come from conservatives who are upset at the large amount of "New Democratic" voters.

Didn't Doug Ford get elected repeatedly?

Once, and once during Covid I mean Trudeau got reelected during Covid too because he temporarily relaxed restrictions, just to crank them back into high gear after winning again.

Also, Doug ford is no conservative, he’s just liberal lite. A pathetic spineless being

He has.

Americans on either side of politics think that Canada is full of super-leftists (and there is no shortage). But were Canada a part of the US in 2016, Trump would have won AB, SK, and quite possibly enough of the GTA (the parts that loved Rob Ford, and as "Ford Country" has repeatedly won the province for Doug Ford as mentioned) to win ON, the province most resembling MI/WI/PA, the three states that Trump unexpectedly won the election with.
