"Canada lives because of the United States,"
"Remember that, Mark, the next time you make your statements."
"51st state"
President Trump asserted that Canada owes its existence to the United States and directly taunted Mark Carney. Mark Carney avoided naming Trump in his address, and a Canadian official said Carney's remarks targeted the president's recent actions. Trump advanced a vision of hemispheric dominance and suggested making Canada the "51st state." In reaction, Ottawa reportedly has begun contingency planning to repel a potential U.S. invasion. Rising tensions between the two countries occur alongside concerns that alienated allies create opportunities for China to expand influence.
