On Tuesday, President-elect Donald Trump sparked attention by referring to Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as the "Governor" of the "Great State of Canada." This unconventional title was used in a post made on Truth, where Trump discussed their recent dinner and conversations about tariffs and trade.

Trump expressed in his post, "It was a pleasure to have dinner the other night with Governor Justin Trudeau of the Great State of Canada. I look forward to seeing the Governor again soon so that we may continue our in-depth talks on Tariffs and Trade, the results of which will be truly spectacular for all! DJT"

The post by Trump came as a surprise given that Trudeau is the Prime Minister of Canada, a sovereign nation, and not a governor of a state. The term "Great State of Canada" is not an official designation and does not reflect Canada's status as a country.

The mention of tariffs and trade indicates ongoing discussions between the United States and Canada. These talks are significant as they pertain to the economic relationship between the two neighboring countries.

Trump's anticipation of positive outcomes from these discussions suggests optimism regarding the potential benefits of their trade talks. He hinted at the prospect of "truly spectacular" results for all parties involved, though no specific details were provided on the nature or scope of these expected results.
