Trump imposed a 25 percent tariff on Canadian imports and a 10 percent duty on Canadian energy imports, escalating concerns about a trade war between the two countries. He has also threatened to annex the U.S.'s northern neighbor, suggesting it should become the 51st U.S. state.

Because while most of the attention to President Donald Trump’s trade war fixates on China, his tariffs and stated desire to make America’s northern neighbor its 51st state have superheated the anger of many Canadian patriots and appear to have swung the election there.
