Donald Trump has reignited tensions with Canada by offering free inclusion in the U.S.'s $175 billion "Golden Dome" missile defense system—on one explosive condition: that Canada become the 51st state. The former president’s proposal, made public via his Truth Social platform, comes with a stark alternative—pay $61 billion to join as a sovereign nation. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has slammed the suggestion, reaffirming that “Canada is not for sale.” The high-stakes demand, tied to a strategic defense pact, has sparked political backlash and renewed concerns about U.S. overreach and Canadian sovereignty.
