All US data was taken from US Census Bureau's 2010 Census and all Canadian data was taken from Statistics Canada 2010 population estimates.

Congress decides how many seats each state receives initially, so the numbers in both tables are only guidelines. The first table shows how many seats each state would receive in an expanded 483-seat House, and the second in a 435-seat House. Currently, the Reapportionment Act of 1929 sets the number of House seats to 435. However, as when Alaska and Hawaii entered, Congress can temporarily add new seats or pass a new act to permanently increase the size of the House. 483 seats is the number that would be arrived at if Congress gave each Canadian state the number of seats it should receive, based on 2010 estimates, without taking seats away from any existing state.

All states receive 2 Senators each, and so the new Senate would have 120 seats; unless any Canadian provinces, such as Prince Edward Island, merged with another.

Canadian territories have not been included in the table, as only states have voting representatives in Congress. It should be noted that the District of Columbia does get 3 electoral votes due to a constitutional amendment, but no other US possession receives the same. All US territories also pay no federal tax.
