  • Trump suggested that Trudeau would be the governor. Even better, it would be separated in 2, the conservatives part (I guess alberta) and the liberals part (I guess mostly Québec).

    Maybe West Canada and East Canada, or Upper Canada and Lower Canada? 51st and 52nd state? Trump is fucking crazy
