Trump Proposes Canada as 51st State for Tax Cuts, Better Health Coverage, and No Tariffs
Jan 24, 2025, 05:18 PM
President Donald Trump has reiterated his proposal for Canada to become the 51st state of the United States, suggesting that such a move would benefit Canadian citizens with significant tax cuts and improved health coverage. Speaking during a visit to North Carolina, Trump claimed that if Canada were to become a state, it would not face tariffs on its exports to the U.S., and Canadians would enjoy a 'tremendous tax cut' due to their current high tax rates. He further stated that as a state, Canada would not need to worry about military expenses and would have 'much better health coverage.' Trump's comments come amid ongoing tensions over trade, with the U.S. president criticizing Canada for being 'very nasty' and 'unfair' in trade relations.
