Some of us have had Cascadia dreams. The problem is that Canada has its own issues and is on the same oozing, shambling drift towards fascist autocracy.
But yeah, the problem is that the US is a big pastiche of purple, and we can't even tell how much of the red side is pressured by peer pressure and the colossal far-right-wing propaganda machine that features the most popular media offerings in the nation. Huge swaths of people are literally being mind controlled, and no-one is addressing this. (On a related note, we keep allowing more loopholes to allow gambling outside Nevada and Georgia, not to mention have failed to criminalize lootboxes)
The US isn't even trying to be democratic and hasn't for decades, which is how seventy seven million people, many of them low-information voters, voted for the guy who campaigned on a fascist autocratic coup d'etat.
That is to say once we finally unseat President Donald J. Trump, we should get ready for a Pete Townshend scream:
Meet the new boss!
Same as the old boss!
please take Alaska. I promise we are not that republican
You know Canada isn't some paradise land either right? It is till a capitalist hell hole dedicated to profit at all costs, white supremacy and ecocide.

Why would you assume Nevada would want to secede?
I think my dream is more along the lines of the internationale, and many hanging with red necks.
Reminds me of the people saying 'china please liberate occupied California, send 200 dong Feng missiles and build intercontinental high speed rail long live ccp'
I think it's funny that y'all think California would bring you into their fold beyond being close allies. Canada is nothing compared to California in the grand scheme of things.
You can't have California if you don't take Texas, what you do with it after the acquisition we don't care.
