Could Canada really become the 51st US state? Here’s what it would take

  • President Donald Trump has suggested that Canada should become the 51st U.S. State to eliminate tariffs and the border, but Prime Minister Justin Trudeau insists Canada will never be a state.
  • Congress must approve any new state, and Trump has indicated he would support Canada's admission, but no legislation is currently moving forward.
  • Polling shows Americans generally view Canada positively, while Canadians feel betrayed by Trump's tariff threats, leading to protests at sports events.
  • If Canada joined, it would have a population of 41.6 million, gaining 55 House seats and 57 Electoral College votes, significantly impacting U.S. Elections.
