Trump says Canada should merge with US as Trudeau resigns
WASHINGTON: Donald Trump on Monday marked Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau´s resignation announcement by doubling down on his unlikely proposal that the country should merge with the United States.
“If Canada merged with the US, there would be no Tariffs, taxes would go way down, and they would be TOTALLY SECURE from the threat of the Russian and Chinese Ships that are constantly surrounding them,” incoming president Trump posted on social media.
“Together, what a great Nation it would be!!!” he added.Trump touted the idea that many Canadians would “LOVE” the idea of being the “51st State” of the US. He said 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. “Justin Trudeau knew this, and resigned,” Trump said.
