Summary

Trump mocked Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as the “governor” of the “Great State of Canada” on Truth Social, following recent discussions about tariffs on Canada.

Trump has joked about Canada becoming the 51st U.S. state, linking the idea to U.S. trade deficits with Canada and Mexico.

Trudeau, responding to tariff threats, pledged to counter any unfair trade measures.

The remarks have sparked lighthearted responses, including Ontario Premier Doug Ford joking about the War of 1812 and Sen. Bernie Sanders referencing Canada’s healthcare system.

      I’m not sure how many it would take to make me sad. Probably a lot. How much is 1% of the population? That’s probable when I’ll stop laughing and suggest maybe we think about another solution. But I dunno, seeing people who allow people to die for a profit won’t ever get old.
