Donald Trump says Canadians want Canada to become the 51st state in the United States Justin Trudeau – Canadians want to make Canada the 51st state in America. Trump mocks his neighbor again.
What do Canadians think?
But people in Canada take Trump’s joke as an insult from a long-time ally. Especially when Trump interferes in domestic politics. A public opinion poll conducted by Leisure this week showed that 13 per cent of Canadians support the idea of becoming America’s 51st state. In late November, the Canadian Prime Minister met with Trump in Florida. Trump then directly asked Trudeau to make Canada the 51st state, which sparked ridicule.
What’s Trudeau’s problem?
In addition to the political crisis, Donald Trump’s tariff threats caused a decline in Justin Trudeau’s popularity. The question is how Trudeau will manage this. In fact, Trump has threatened to impose a 25% tax on all products coming from Canada and Mexico. Trump made this threat because of illegal border crossing and drug smuggling. Trudeau faces the biggest test of his political career.
