Trump suggests Canada become 51st US state and mocks Trudeau

Donald Trump recently suggested that Canada should become the 51st state of the U.S., claiming it would lower taxes for Canadians. He proposed Wayne Gretzky as a potential Prime Minister, calling him "The Great One." Trump has mocked Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, referring to him as Canada’s "governor." He criticized Canada’s trade practices and claimed that Canadian businesses would thrive under U.S. governance. Trudeau is facing increasing dissatisfaction from Canadians over high living costs and a housing crisis. Calls for his resignation are growing as the next federal election approaches, likely in October 2025.
