  • President-elect Trump continued trolling of Canada early Wednesday by slamming U.S. subsidies and again claiming that Canadians supposedly want to become the 51st U.S. state.

In a recent interview, former President Donald Trump criticized the U.S. subsidies to Canada, arguing that they make no economic sense and that Canada benefits disproportionately from these arrangements. Trump suggested that due to these economic ties and benefits, Canadians might be interested in becoming the 51st state of the U.S. He highlighted the trade imbalances and the support provided by the U.S. to Canada, particularly in defense, as reasons why such a union could be beneficial. This statement comes amidst ongoing discussions about trade relations and economic dependencies between the two nations.
