President-elect Trump weighed in on the political turmoil in the 'great state of Canada' after the finance minister resigned from her post amid a disagreement with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau over how to handle possible U.S. tariffs under the incoming Trump administration. Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland resigned from her post Monday.
While sources say the exchange got many laughs, Trump delivered the message that he expected change by Jan. 20. The nearly three-hour conversation continued about various other topics. By the end, the Canadian guests called the dinner 'very friendly and very positive,' though no reference was made to becoming the 51st state. Fox News Digital’s Greg Wehner contributed to this report.
