Trump encourages Gretzky to consider run for Canadian prime minister

Donald Trump stated he encouraged hockey legend Wayne Gretzky to run for prime minister of Canada during a Christmas visit. Trump claimed Gretzky would win easily but noted that Gretzky showed no interest in the idea. Trump also reiterated his suggestion that Canada could become a U.S. state, claiming it would benefit Canadians with tax cuts and business growth. He referred to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as a governor and expressed Christmas greetings to him. Gretzky has previously supported Conservative politicians but has not indicated any interest in running for office. His agents have not yet responded to inquiries about Trump's comments.
