Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney stated he considered the possibility of a U.S. invasion after President Trump referred to Canada as the 51st state during discussions about tariffs.

Trump has used the "51st state" reference multiple times in 2025 and early 2026 while discussing tariffs on Canadian goods.
