Donald Trump again suggests that Canada become the 51st state of the United States and avoid tariffs

Listen to this note:

 

After Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced on Monday his intention to step down from his elected position and the leadership of the Liberal Party once a new party leader is chosen, President-elect Donald Trump suggested that the nation of the maple leaf become the 51st state of the United States.

In addition to claiming credit for Trudeau's resignation, Trump assured that if Canada becomes a member state of the United States, it will not have to worry about tariffs, which it has threatened to impose on Mexico, two of its main trading partners and with which it has a Free Trade Agreement (TMEC).

?A lot of people in Canada LOVE being the 51st
