At Mar-a-Lago, Trump Jokes Canada Should Become 51st State, Trudeau Its Governor, Over $100 Billion Tariff Dispute
Dec 3, 2024, 12:37 AM
During a recent dinner meeting at Mar-a-Lago, U.S. President Donald Trump reportedly told Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau that if Canada cannot survive without 'ripping off' the United States to the tune of $100 billion to $150 billion a year, then perhaps it should become the 51st state, with Trudeau serving as its governor. The remark came after Trudeau expressed concerns that new U.S. tariffs, potentially as high as 25%, would harm the Canadian economy. Fox News reported the exchange, citing sources present at the meeting.
