    Not that I've heard of. There was a movement for the Bahamas and some British islands in the Caribbean to become a Canadian province, believe it or not, back in the 1920s or 30s, and it got some traction but never came about.

    It could have made good economic sense -- there were some products that each country produced and the other wanted that could be traded more cheaply if they were all in the same country. And the UK was apparently perfectly happy to let those islands go. But issues of distance and especially race sank the idea before it came to fruition.
