Former U.S. President Donald Trump caused a stir by referring to Canada as 'one of the nastiest countries' and suggesting it should become the 51st U.S. state during a Fox News interview.
His comments have drawn widespread criticism, including from former Republican Representative Adam Kinzinger, who called Trump's remarks 'embarrassing.' Trump's stance on Canada contradicts the views of his own ambassador pick from Michigan. He also suggested that a Liberal government in Canada would be easier to work with than Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre.
The remarks have fueled tensions between the U.S. and Canada, especially as trade and diplomatic relations remain key issues.
