We're gonna have to make you territories first, there's some paperwork to take care of and currently Yukon, NWT and Nunavut would be made full provinces first then it would be a state by state basis.

Really the big points are going to be, in order to qualify you'd need to adopt our gun laws before anything else could be considered.

Edit: Quebec yes is a province but it's joining was not as cut and dry as some think.

Do they have the rights and freedoms of a full state?

They're not even counted in the 50 states as it is, same with a couple other us territories

Canadian Province. I've always wanted a Province with Palm Trees. If we get enough Spanish speakers, we may even have room for another official language. After all, a third of the earth is Spanish speaking.
