Justin Trudeau Confronts Trump Over Suggestion of Canadian Annexation Amid Ongoing Trade Disputes

Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has expressed concerns that President Donald Trump may be serious about annexing Canada. According to Trudeau, Trump believes that annexing Canada would be an easy process, possibly through absorption. This information was reportedly shared by Trudeau during a closed-door meeting at the Canada-US Economic Summit in Toronto, and was later confirmed by two Canadian business leaders who attended the meeting. Canada possesses significant natural resources, including over 60 minerals and metals, with deposits scattered across its vast landmass, which is roughly as large as all of Europe. The country's provinces of Ontario and British Columbia are particularly rich in key minerals such as nickel, copper, and molybdenum.
