Canada annexed to the United States? Americans’ views on the idea of ​​a “51st state”

“It’s ridiculous. I love Canada and it should stay the way it is. I don’t want it to be part of the United States, said an American citizen met by Noovo Info on Tuesday.

Another resident of the eastern part of the country does not share the same opinion as President-elect Donald Trump, who had mentioned this idea as a joke.

“I don’t think we’re such a good country. I often go to Canada. We are very close. So we should join you,” he said.

“I think Canada is definitely better than the United States. Protect it from American influence,” added the lady interviewed by Noovo Info.

And Canadians seem to share this opinion.

A recent Angus Reid poll reports that approximately 90% of Canadians are against Canada’s annexation to the United States.

But for some Americans, it’s a think about it.

“I don’t think it’s a bad idea. Why would that be a bad idea?” replied a young American.
