Canadian man swears loyalty to the U.S. for defense

Don Casselman, a 78-year-old from Alberta, Canada, recently took an oath of loyalty to the U.S. He believes joining the U.S. could strengthen Canada’s defense against threats from countries like Russia and China. Casselman expressed his feelings during the pledge, stating he renounces loyalty to any foreign prince. He is part of a small group advocating for Canadian integration with the U.S., despite a poll showing 90% of Canadians prefer to remain independent. This development follows a trade dispute between the U.S. and Canada, with President Trump imposing tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum. Canada's new Prime Minister, Mark Carney, opposes the idea of becoming the 51st state and seeks trade negotiations without compromising sovereignty.
