President Donald Trump said on Friday that Canadians would have better healthcare if the country was absorbed by the U.S. and became its 51st state.
Talking to media from North Carolina, Trump made the comments while claiming the U.S. is "subsidizing" Canada. "We lose $200 billion a year because we allow them to make cars, to take lumber. We don't need their products, we make the same ones on the other side of the border," said Trump during a passage of his remarks.
