Canadians respond to Trump's offer of huge tax cuts to become 51st state: 'Sounds good to us!'

While left-leaning Canadians are balking at the idea of a Trump take-over, some say they'd jump at the chance to have the Donald in charge.

The US president-elect this week made his strongest bid yet to take over Canada, offering its people a 60 percent tax cut if they agree to join the US and become the 51st US state.

While Trump's offer was theoretical, many Canadians who are sick and tired of left-leaning Trudeau said they'd welcome him with open arms.

They say they'd appreciate the tax break and other perks from joining the world's biggest economy.

Maxime Bernier, founder and leader of the right-wing People's Party of Canada, told DailyMail.com that some Canadians look to Trump after a decade of 'woke' liberal rule.

Among the Canadians who have backed Trump's plan is Bruce McGonigal, who says it would herald an 'economic boom' for Canada.

'We would be able to keep emergency rooms open,' McGonigal posted on X.

'The dollars we earn would also have way more value than the weak Canadian dollar.'

There would be benefits for them, such as the Second Amendment would immediately trash all their gun control.

The bad part for us would be inheriting their left coast and their French dominated provinces.

It would be ideal if we could just pick and choose what provinces to get and let their libtardian ones create their own paradise countries.

Albertans have the second-highest separation sentiments, second to Quebec. However, the Albertan sentiment to separation is actually higher, because Quebec uses the threat to get Ottawa to make concessions, while Albertans simply want out because Ottawa won’t offer anything to Albertans.

Asia's crowded
And Europe's too old
Africa's far too hot
And Canada's too cold
And South America stole our name
Let's drop the big one
There'll be no one left to blame us

We'll save Australia Don't want to hurt no kangaroo
We'll build an all American amusement park there
They've got surfing, too

Just go with Alberta, it’s like the Texas of Canada. I’m not so sure which provinces beyond it would make good states... too many would be blue states, where Alberta would be good and red.

Sell Quebec to France.

The only problem with that scenario is the Muslim population of France.

But I think France will split up eventually.

Paris (under Islamic rule) will become its own country. While France will remain French but without Paris.

Oh good grief! There’s utter nonsense and then there’s this nonsense.

Trump is just killing time until Jan 20, I guess...but it sure dulls the presidential sheen on his administration.
