And then, looking at the two-colour map of the electoral outcome, the solution hit me. You don't have to move the people; just move the border.
It would all join up just fine: The parts of the U.S. inhabited by homo canadiensis all lie along the Canadian border or next to other states that do (although the blue bit dangles down a long, long way in the case of the Washington-Oregon-California strip fondly known as the Left Coast).
With a somewhat smaller dangle in the East. But, this solution would heal a huge hole in Canadian pride. Ever since Baltimore claimed the Grey cup a few years back, I know the Canadians would be less rankled had it been won by a Canadian city. Now it can be done!
