The threads are real but this is not our goal because we do not share the same values.

We are a country, not a state.

No, I absolutely do not want us to become the 51st state of the United States.

It’s an intriguing statement—could reflect growing European unease about U.S. policy shifts, especially with recent tensions over Ukraine and NATO. Sounds like the PM’s hinting at tangible pressure or influence from across the Atlantic. What’s your take on it?

Same. But I foresee a change and maybe we will lose EU support given Germany election results

True, the German election results could shift EU dynamics, potentially impacting support.

Canada should think about not trade only with US

This trade war is getting out of control, now Trump will impose a 50% tariff on Canadian aluminum and steel. Lumber and Dairy are coming next. Trump really wants Canada to be a part of the USA.

Do you really think that's his goal? I thought it's all leverage to impose border patrols and restrictions

That’s definitely a bold topic! If the PM is acknowledging real pressure from the U.S., it raises a lot of questions about what’s happening behind the scenes.
Historically, discussions about Canada becoming the 51st state have been more of a political or economic thought experiment rather than a real possibility. But if there are genuine concerns about U.S. influence or pressure, it could mean anything from trade negotiations to geopolitical shifts.
Do you think this is just political posturing, or do you believe there’s an actual movement pushing in that direction? And how do you think Canadians would react to such an idea?
