Trump wrote in a post on his Truth Social site that, if both
nations were to become one, "there would no Tariffs" and that
"taxes would go way down."
He also said Canada would be "Totally Secure” from the
threat of the Russian and Chinese Ships that are constantly surrounding
them," and argued many Canadians would "Love" the idea of being
the “51st State” of the United States.
Trump added that the merger would be beneficial for
the US, because it would “no longer suffer” from “massive Trade Deficits” and
subsidies that it provides to Canada.
Trudeau, who has served as Canada’s prime minister for nine
years, announced Monday that he would be resigning before general elections
later this year.
His Liberal Party, which Trudeau has led for 11 years,
is polling poorly, and the leader has faced mounting crises, including the
resignation of a top minister and a confrontation with Trump’s 25 percent
tariff plan, among other issues.
