Thursday, December 19, 2024 - The United States, US, President-elect, Donald Trump has said Canada could become the 51st US state.
Trump said “many Canadians” welcome the idea because Ottawa is wracked
by a political crisis.
Posting on his Truth Social handle on Wednesday, Trump said Canada would
save massively from tax and military protection.
He wrote: “Many Canadians want Canada to become the 51st State.
“They would save massively on taxes and military protection. I think it
is a great idea. 51st State.”
In November, the US President-elect suggested that merging the two
nations would not only resolve his concerns about fentanyl trafficking, over
which he has threatened a 25-percent tariff on Canadian goods, but could also
stem illegal immigration — a problem concentrated on the US southern border.
