Why is there any obsession at all with adding Canada as a state?

Because Trump is trying to do to Canada what Putin is doing to Ukraine. Why? Because taking over a major food supply source is where the money will be at (because global warming is slowing expanding the hot zones north and southwards).

Add to that Canada's almost unlimited fresh water supply, lots of spare hydro electricity, a fair amount of rare earth minerals, a large oil source, and a huge portion of the Arctic region (that will soon be ice-free).

I also wouldn't be surprised if he just wanted to conquer an independent nation just for like chest-bumping, wanna-be strongman reasons.

This is more likely. These vast conspiracies like the one you replied to are giving him too much credit. The guys just not that well thought out.
