If the US voted to annex Canada, forming the United States of North America, in a referendum that got a yes from majority of the population in the resulting USNA (say, 2/3 of the US population, leading to 50+% on the whole after Canada is added), would that be a legitimate move? After all, it would be backed by a majority of the people in the USNA.
If not, why not?
Canada is a sovereign nation. The U.S. has no legal right to annex it.
