Prime Minister Trudeau addresses Trump's intentions regarding Canada's resources.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of Canada has expressed grave concerns regarding President Trump's statements about potentially annexing Canada, referring to it as a real threat. Speaking to a group of business leaders in Toronto, Trudeau emphasized that he does not believe Trump’s remarks are merely jokes, highlighting a desire for Canadian resources as a motive behind these declarations.
"I suggest that not only does the Trump administration know how many critical minerals we have, but that may be why they keep talking about absorbing us and making us the 51st state," Trudeau stated, as recounted by attendees. The media was barred from the room, yet reports surfaced from The Toronto Star and the CBC detailing his remarks.
Trudeau pointed out that the U.S. administration is well aware of Canada's rich resource base and is keen on exploiting it, subsequently leading to Trump's provocative suggestion of annexation as a straightforward approach. "But Mr. Trump has it in mind that one of the easiest ways of doing that is absorbing our country. And it is a real thing," Trudeau reiterated, showering insight on the looming concerns that surround Canada's national sovereignty in relation to its resources.
