NATO also known as the North Atlantic Treaty Operation is the intergovernmental military alliance that includes 28 different countries to date. To answer your question : the Soviet Union did not join. The treaty was made as an alliance system so when and if the Soviet Union decided to invade Canada (for land purposes), Canada would be ready and had allies to support it, hence the name North Atlantic treaty.
