Protecting Canada's sovereignty is priority in talks with King Charles — Trudeau
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Sunday, March 2, his priority in talks with King Charles on Monday, March 3, will be protecting his country's sovereignty after US President Donald Trump recently suggested making Canada the 51st US state.
Trudeau said nothing is more important to his citizens than "standing up for our sovereignty and our independence," ahead of the meeting with Charles, who is Canada's head of state.
Last week, Charles invited Trump to what would be a historic second state visit to Britain, with Prime Minister Keir Starmer handing over the invitation during a meeting before the world's media in the Oval Office.
