Making Canada the 51st state is ‘Great’ to counter China
The US president-elect continues to bait Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau; or is he leaking out his covert Great American ambition to counter China’s economic weight?
The United States and Canada are respectively the third- and second-largest countries in the world. Their unified territories would replace Russia (currently occupying 11.5% of Earth’s surface) as the world’s largest country.
This hypothetical scenario would not only impact North America’s geopolitical power but would also bolster the US economy and elevate its influence in global rankings against China’s.
The integration of Canada’s vast natural resources, military strength, and thriving industries could supercharge America’s global dominance. As the US is already a world leader in both military and economic influence, incorporating Canada could propel it to new heights of global power.

Donald Trump’s trolling again … or is he?
Early on Wednesday the United States president-elect suggested turning Canada into a part of the US, calling it “a great idea.”
“No one can answer why we subsidize Canada to the tune of over $100,000,000 a year? Makes no sense! Many Canadians want Canada to become the 51st State. They would save massively on taxes and military protection. I think it is a great idea. 51st State!!!” he boomed on his social media platform.
It’s not the first time in recent days Trump has needled Canada and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government, which was rocked by the bombshell resignation of Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland.
“The Great State of Canada is stunned as the Finance Minister resigns, or was fired, from her position by Governor Justin Trudeau,” Trump wrote Monday. “Her behavior was totally toxic and not at all conducive to making deals which are good for the very unhappy citizens of Canada. She will not be missed!!!!”
The mocking posts land amid tensions between the two countries after Trump threatened to impose 25 percent tariffs on Canadian goods and accused the government of failing to address trade and immigration issues.
After meeting with Trudeau at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida in late November, Trump started calling Trudeau the “Governor” of the “Great State of Canada.”
“It was a pleasure to have dinner the other night with Governor Justin Trudeau of the Great State of Canada,” he wrote. “I look forward to seeing the Governor again soon so that we may continue our in depth talks on Tariffs and Trade, the results of which will be truly spectacular for all! DJT.”
