LTE - Is Washington interested in joining Canada as new province?
Politics is a lively topic in any country, especially so in western democracies. Typically allies and friends refrain from commenting on each other for fear of interfering with internal politics. President-elect Donald Trump has no such shyness!
He goes out of his way to belittle neighbours and allies, including those of us here in Canada.
Trump’s recent provocations include referring to our prime minister as a governor, and suggesting Canada (with whom the U.S. has a long-standing free-trade agreement) can avoid his threatened 25 percent tariffs by joining the U.S. as its 51st state.

While we are going through political changes here prior to a federal election, we feel sorry for those Americans living along the border with Canada who think more like us than like Trump. Here’s a thought: Why not the state of Washington join the Canadian confederation as our 11th province?
