Justin Trudeau is not popular in Canada, to put it mildly, with just a 28% approval rating. And if an election were called, his Liberal Party would get crushed by the Conservatives. But if there's one thing a country as large and as diverse as Canada agrees on it's that they want no part of joining the United States. They have their own problems to deal with, thank you very much. Trump's childish taunts will only backfire, as they did in 2018.

Amid a looming tariff threat, U.S. president-elect Donald Trump appears to be mocking Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, referring to him as "Governor Justin Trudeau" in a post on Truth Social(opens in a new tab) early Tuesday.
"It was a pleasure to have dinner the other night with Governor Justin Trudeau of the Great State of Canada. I look forward to seeing the Governor again soon so that we may continue our in depth talks on Tariffs and Trade, the results of which will be truly spectacular for all!" Trump wrote.
"We will, of course, as we did eight years ago, respond to unfair tariffs in a number of ways, and we're still looking at the right ways to respond," Trudeau said at a fireside chat with the Halifax Chamber of Commerce on Monday.
