Well from the mere mentions of the Dominion of Canada in some chapters, it will definitely exist like OTL.

Not necessarily. Maybe there's a federated Canada and Borealia is a province/state in Canada. IOTL we have the University of Quebec.
On a related note, here is a map of an independent Borealia I found on Reddit:

I like Marc Pasquin one but he make a little too much coat of arm your first one is very good but I feel like it lack something to represent specifically Louisiana but that just my opinion and you all did a great job if I had to choose I would take @The Professor first one
Or vice versa.
Heck, Borealia and Canada could be provinces of a BNA state with a different name entirely.
True!
In that case, Sārthākā has done a great job at hinting but not hinting and thus leaving room for twists!

EDIT: Throwing out another out-there possibility, it could be the name of TTL's Alaska: https://auntphilstrunk.com/how-did-alaska-get-its-name/

But Russia already controls Alaska. Who knows, Borelia could be the name for TTL's British Columbia or some other Canadian province.
Yes. My first one is rather bland. I just went for generic fleurs and stripes.
I was imagining if it's sold to the UK/Canada/whoever down the line. It's not a given that a sold Aleyska would become Alaska ITTL, which is why I linked the site that said there were a bunch of names put forward for Alaska when it was sold IOTL.

Looking at the laws, it seems likely that Louisiana won't be having a new source of slaves, so slavery is likely just going to fade away as the slaves grow older.
Whelp. That is one way to get rid of slavery.

That was basically what Brazil did, wasn’t it? Let it wither and die.
It was, and then 17 years later, they killed it dead anyway.
What if Britain does with Canada/Borealia/Albionora what France did with Louisiana and send someone to be their king? Like one of the King's sons? That way Canada can be a proper Kingdom.
Why would Britain do that? There's no reason to do it, if the British want Canada as a kingdom then they'll just add it to the current list of kingdoms the king already rules, no need to assign them their own monarch.

As mentioned before, we know that Canada will be a Dominion just by the mere mention of it in some of the chapters. Sarthaka has done a fantastic job of foreshadowing future events.
I know, I was just questioning why Abe thought the Brits would give the Canadians a king. Especially considering they already have one.

Yeah, Canada doesn't need one since they are under the domain of the British Empire.
Fair enough. Then why is Canada a Dominion when they could easily be a Kingdom?
