I think BC should declare war on Washington and just drag the border south a bit to claim the Cascades and the little town of Winthrop.

They haven't mounted the Canadian flags yet. Old West store fronts and wooden walkways create an inviting cowtown atmosphere.
You couldn't find a better place to park your bike, smell the petunias and enjoy a cup of cowgirl coffee.
