Washington, January 7 (UITV) – After the resignation of Canadian PM Justin Trudeau, the newly elected US President Donald Trump has reiterated his offer to make Canada the 51st state of America. Donald Trump’s name has always been in the headlines in American politics. He has been famous for his statements and decisions, whether it is domestic politics or international relations. Recently, Trump has once again proposed to make Canada the ’51st state’ of America, which has created a stir in political circles. This statement has come when Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is out of power and this comment was made by Trump in the context of international relations.
Canada and America have had friendly and stable relations for a long time. Many collaborative aspects on trade, security and foreign policy have been discussed between the two countries. However, this relationship sometimes also depends on the personal views of the leaders of both countries. In particular, since Donald Trump became president, he has given rise to controversies regarding his relations with Canada with many of his statements.
78-year-old Donald Trump again proposed to make Canada the “51st state” of America just hours after Justin Trudeau’s resignation amid political turmoil in Canada. Trump said on Truth Social that many people in Canada would like to be a part of America and now the United States cannot bear the trade deficit and subsidies that Canada needs. Trump also said that if Canada joins the US, there will be no tariffs, taxes will be reduced and it will be completely safe from Russian and Chinese ships. Along with this, Trump accused Trudeau’s administration of failure to stop illegal migration and drug trafficking and warned that if this problem persists, he will impose a 25 percent duty on Canada.
Trump had earlier also proposed to make Canada the ’51st state’ and now he is repeating it again. His statement has come when Justin Trudeau has resigned from the post of Prime Minister of Canada. Trump also said that if Canada were to join with the US to form a new nation, it would be a ‘step towards progress and peace’ for them.

His statement was a big message in Canadian politics in a way. Trump’s proposal was like questioning Canada’s sovereignty, because Canada is an independent and prosperous nation. This proposal shocked not only the citizens of Canada but also the whole world, because it was contrary to any international agreement and its purpose was to reveal America’s global power.
When Donald Trump proposed to make Canada the ’51st state’, its impact was not limited to Canada only. This statement was considered an important signal in American politics, international relations and around the world. Such statements show that Trump’s approach has always been focused on the superiority of America.
This was an unprecedented proposal for Canada, as it was a direct attack on its national identity and sovereignty. Canadian leaders completely rejected this proposal and called it an attempt to gain political fame. The Canadian public also took this comment negatively and saw it as American interference.
Was this statement of Trump just a joke or is there a deeper strategy hidden behind it? This question naturally arises. Trump’s politics has always been controversial and shocking and the purpose of such statements may be to increase his political influence. This may be a way for him to strengthen his position among Canada and other countries and gain more popularity among his supporters.
Also, it is possible that Trump made this statement only to attract the attention of the international media, so that his name can be brought into discussion again. In Trump’s style, sometimes there may be a deeper strategy behind his statements, which promote his political ambitions.
Canadian leaders immediately rejected this proposal and said that the future of Canada is completely in the hands of the people of Canada, not America. As the Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau has always valued Canada’s sovereignty and independence and even after his exit from power, there has been no change in Canada’s political outlook. To maintain Canada’s political stability and its reputation in the world, Canada has always maintained a balance in its relations and wants to maintain its identity separate from the US.
Donald Trump’s proposal to make Canada the ’51st state’ was a big political statement that made headlines around the world. Although this statement may be purely a political strategy, it still challenged Canada’s sovereignty and national identity. It will be interesting to see in the future how Trump and his supporters use such statements and what impact it has on global politics.
