There has been much talk in Canada about incoming U.S. president Donald Trump telling PM Justin Trudeau at Mar-a-Lago that Canada might consider becoming the 51st state if $100 billion in trade tariffs would sink the Canadian economy, as Trudeau reportedly claimed.
The migrant crisis in the U.S. which Donald Trump has referenced in future Canada/U.S. Relations. We found out from immigration lawyer Richard Kurland that CBSA documentation exists that illegal border crossings from Canada into the U.S. have been increasing since 2022.

Roy's post to X last week:
"I've had it with the vapid override for 'Merry Christmas.'
If you're too fearful of committing an imagined offense by speaking the traditional Christmas greeting, just say nothing. I'd rather that than hear the numbingly meaning-absent 'happy holidays' for the next 3 weeks."
He takes calls from across Canada on this issue
