New Canadian Territory??

Hey, has anyone heard anything Recently about what progress has been made with regards to the Turks and Caicos Islands in the Caribbean joining Canada? This is something I think would just be awesome, to have a Canadian vacation destination, as well as to help out a country that is less well endowed than we are economically.
I imagine the debate about their annexation fell off the map with the last minority government, but it could be something that the new Prime Minister would be interested in.
And I see President Bush is encouraging people to become less dependent on oil... except his solution is COAL!! Does anyone else see this as a step backward?
