Trump Proposes Canada Become the 51st U.S. State to Save on Taxes and Military Costs
President-elect of the United States, Donald Trump, recently proposed the idea of Canada becoming the 51st state of the U.S., suggesting that the move could benefit both nations.
In a post shared on his Truth Social platform on Wednesday, Trump claimed that many Canadians are open to the idea.
Trump argued that Canadians would stand to gain significantly from joining the U.S., particularly in terms of saving on taxes and receiving military protection.
He stated, “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.”
This isn’t the first time Trump has floated the idea of merging the two countries.
Back in November, he linked the proposal to his concerns about the ongoing issues of fentanyl trafficking and illegal immigration, which he believes could be addressed by merging the nations.
In a conversation with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at a dinner at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, the U.S. President-elect suggested that such a merger could help resolve these pressing issues.
Trump’s suggestion that Canada could join the U.S. has sparked mixed reactions.
Supporters of the idea argue that it could bring financial stability and greater security to both nations.
However, critics point out the complexities and challenges that such a merger would entail, including political, cultural, and legal hurdles.
Nigerian pastor and overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, addresses and reacts to the current happenings of the country regarding the kidnapping and the abductions.
The pastor urges the government on steps they can take to solve and help the people of the country. “The Nigerian government has a clear and urgent duty to protect these Middle Belt communities, who have carried the weight of violence for far too long.”
“Rather than play the ostrich and cover up clear terrorism as mere farmer-herder clashes, the Nigerian state has a responsibility to invade the camps of armed marauders who hide under the cloak of herdsmen of whatever ethnicity, and who invade defenceless communities and gleefully massacre unarmed men, women and children.”
US President Donald Trump criticizes the Nigeria government once again after the increase of insecurity over the past few days. The president stated that the government is failing to protect Christian communities from the attacks going on.
“Nigeria is a disgrace. The whole thing is a disgrace,” Trump said. “They’re killing people by the thousands. It’s a genocide, and I’m really angry about it. And we pay, you know, we give a lot of subsidies to Nigeria. We’re going to end up stopping.”
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar speaks out against the rising insecurity in the country. He urged the government to take action and claimed that it is not too late to declare a state of emergency.
He reacted after another news of abduction of students was announced on the 21st of November.
“How many more lives must be shattered before decisive action is taken? It is not too late for the government to finally declare a state of emergency on insecurity and confront this menace with the urgency it deserves.”
