US President-elect Donald Trump has suggested that Mexico and Canada become US states if they want substantial subsidies from Washington to continue flowing. The incoming US leader made the remarks to NBC News in his first Sunday talk show appearance since winning the presidential election in November. Last month, Trump pledged to impose a 25% tariff on all goods from Mexico and Canada unless they stop the flow of migrants and drugs to the US. He defended his stance on tariffs to NBC News ‘Meet the Press’, saying that the US subsidizes Mexico by almost $300 billion annually, while Canada gets around $100 billion per year. “We’re subsidizing Canada to the tune over $100 billion a year. We’re subsidizing Mexico for almost $300 billion. We shouldn’t be – why are we subsidizing these countries? If we’re going to subsidize them, let them become a state,” Trump said.

Looks like it was not tongue in cheek, but an idea. Somebody has to inform him that Canada's aluminum production alone dwarfs that of the US and it is a strategic material for aerospace industry. In fact, Canada produces almost 3.5 times more aluminum than the US. Per Mexico, LOL.
