Probably, yeah. Trump is a moron, but even he isn't too dumb to realize that if Canada joined the US with full democratic rights that Republicans would never win a national election. So if it ever did come to fruition, there would be 1 of 2 possibilities:
1) The US has ceased to be a functioning democracy.
2) Canadians wouldn't have voting rights and Canada would be a territory that they can basically plunder from.
Either way, that's not really the kind of place that someone with some options would necessarily want to stick around in.
Sure, there are other possibilities short of annexation, like a customs union or something like that. But if it ever comes down to actual annexation, then Canadians are not going to be coming out of that in a good situation.
