President-elect Donald Trump reportedly joked to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau last week that his country should become part of the United States if it can’t handle Trump’s aggressive tariff plan.

Trump, 78, made the quip during a three-hour dinner with Trudeau at his Mar-a-Lago estate on Friday — a meeting prompted by the president-elect’s threat to impose a 25% tariff on Canadian imports.

During their Palm Beach, Fla., sitdown, Trudeau, 52, pleaded with Trump not to implement the new levy because it would “kill” Canada’s economy, according to Fox News.
