Here’s what may have triggered Trump’s latest jibe that Canada is a state

President-elect Donald Trump joked on social media — as he reportedly did in person — that Canada is a state and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is a governor.

“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! DJT,” Trump posted on Truth Social, his social media network.
