California is a Giver state; most of the red states are Taker states.

In 2022 (the latest year there's info for) CA paid $83B more than it received, the most by any state by a considerable margin. Next highest was NJ at about $29B

Exactly, secession to Canada would be warranted, as long as the other blue states are included!!

On the left coast we start at the border with Mexico, go up I-5 until we join Canada.

I could be reading too much into your I-5 reference, but IтАЩd say, keep the eastern border as is. No reason to give up the Sierra or Cascades. In the PNW maybe Hwy 97.
