Team MAGA jumped at the opportunity to troll Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau after he announced his resignation on Monday.
Trudeau, who is stepping down after almost a decade in the role, has frequently been the target of Donald Trump, who has referred to Canada as the 51st state on multiple occasions.
In his announcement on Monday, Trudeau said that he “cannot be the best option” in the upcoming election after facing calls within his caucus to step down for months. Just last month, Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland resigned after accusing him of being unprepared for the tariff threats from Trump.
Now, the president-elect’s allies are celebrating.
“While other countries prosecuted citizens who went abroad to fight with ISIS, in 2017 Justin Trudeau said he’d welcome ISIS fighters into Canada saying they could be rehabilitated,” Turning Point founder Charlie Kirk wrote to X. “This is what a fool and a sucker looks like.”

Billionaire Elon Musk responded simply, saying that 2025 is “looking good” while retweeting posts about Trump’s call to take in Canada.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene even went as far as to say Trump “liberated” Canada.
“After tyrannical Covid abuse, destroying free speech, importing military aged male “refugees”, and being Zelensky’s biggest cheerleader, Trudeau RESIGNS!,” Greene posted.

The resignation news also caused Trump to double down on taking over Canada, two weeks before he’s officially back in the White House.
“Many people in Canada LOVE being the 51st State,” he wrote to Truth Social on Monday. “If Canada merged with the U.S., there would be no Tariffs, taxes would go way down, and they would be TOTALLY SECURE from the threat of the Russian and Chinese Ships that are constantly surrounding them.”
