Forget the 51st state, Mr. President, and consider a common market with Canada

“As President Donald Trump continues to toy (troll?) with the idea of Canada becoming the 51st state, he should consider a better option: Build a common market with our neighbors to the north. That’s a lot more in line with the statehood idea than hitting the country with a barrage of tariffs. A deal to let labor, goods and capital flow freely both ways would be a boon to both economies, similar to the early days of European economic integration, before European Union bureaucrats started regulating industries within an inch of their lives. And it would avoid the drawbacks of the statehood approach — two more senators for the Democrats and the yoke of absorbing a relatively sluggish economy.” (03/29/25)
