QUESTION: Hello Marty, Many in Canada appear to be taking President Donald Trump’s discuss making Canada the 51st US state significantly. We now have Canadian leaders claiming it’s a severe risk and a part of a plan. “President Trump wants to put us into a state where we are much more weakened economically in order eventually to annex us,” was the remark from International Minister Mélanie Joly.
This appears to be a distraction; as you say, they want struggle in Europe to distract from their financial decline. Trump has uncovered what many people Canadians didn’t know. First, the drug labs, and second, internally, as you mentioned in your interview with Maxime Bernier, we now have tariffs between provinces.
Can Trump annex Canada? That appears far-fetched.

ANSWER: Most individuals have no idea, however Quebec wished to separate and be part of the USA and even fashioned a Political Social gathering referred to as the 51st State. From an financial perspective, becoming a member of with the USA is clearly economically helpful. I laid that out within the Canadian Report. This has been proposed forwards and backwards since e the American Revolution. Provinces wouldn’t be allowed to place tariffs on one another. That is all very Marxist, defending labor however on the worth of decreasing the usual of dwelling. Others have identified that you haven’t any proper to vote for who leads your nation below a Parliamentary system. Nonetheless, others have proposed ending that system and adopting the American system however remaining as Canada.
Look, from purely an financial and nationwide protection perspective, such a merger is sensible. Nonetheless, there is no such thing as a approach Trump might merely annex Canada. Furthermore, I feel the politicians there have an excessive amount of to lose, and they’re going to scream and yell to retain independence, no totally different than any such state or entity like NATO. If Trump was actually severe, then going public with that concept might have been a tactic to get the folks towards the politicians.
If there’s a struggle between the US and Russia, the nukes can be coming excessive of the globe by way of Canada. That’s the reason he needs Greenland as a result of Tule has been the house of NORAD, which protects the highest of the globe from a nuclear assault that must journey over Canada.
Canada has adopted the Socialist agenda of imposing tariffs to guard jobs, which has dominated Europe and led to financial suppression in each international locations. Maybe the upside right here is that Trump has uncovered the inner tariffs and that coverage in Canada that the majority Canadians had been unaware of till this fascinating banter.
