Kenney and McNeil are premiers, so they’d probably be their “state”’s governors right now.

Christy Clark would not be senator, BC would be heavily Democratic.

If Canada were a part of the U.S. &, thus, had a very different political history, then I can assure you that, at the very least, some career paths would've diverged from where they currently are, i.e. Kenney perhaps thinking that running for Senate would be better than running for "Governor" if his goal is to stay politically relevant, & McNeil running for Senate after having been re-elected as "Governor." In actuality, the butterfly effect would be so massive that the Canadian Senators would likely be people that we've never even heard of, but this is keeping it simple for the sake of the thread's interestingness.

And as for Christy Clark, she's basically a literal equivalent of Susan Collins in this hypothetical.

EDIT: grammar

This question is very dependent on if we’re talking Canada always having been part of the US or today’s Canada joining in the US.

The former would be interesting, but the latter would be answered simply with “everything Safe D”

Alberta: *visible confusion*
