Neighbours helping neighbors: Justin Trudeau sends aid to fight US wildfires amid Donald Trump's '51st State' remark

| @indiablooms | Jan 10, 2025, at 06:11 pm

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has sent firefighting resources to the USA where wildfires devastated a large portion of Los Angeles and even left 10 people dead.

Trudeau made the comment at a time when he exchanged barbs with US President-elect Donald Trump who recently said he could use “economic force” to turn Canada into the 51st American state.

Sharing a video on X which showed a Canadian waterbomber dousing flames in Los Angeles County, Trudeau wrote: "Neighbours helping neighbors."

He announced further help for the USA and wrote: "Canada is mobilizing to help fight the wildfires in southern California. Canadian water bombers are already in action. 250 firefighters are ready to deploy. The @CanadianForces
are standing by to move personnel and equipment."

Justin Trudeau dismissed Trump's suggestion

Meanwhile, Canadian PM Justin Trudeau dismissed Trump's suggestion and wrote on X: "There isn’t a snowball’s chance in hell that Canada would become part of the United States."

"Workers and communities in both our countries benefit from being each other’s biggest trading and security partner," Trudeau, who resigned as the leader of his Liberal Party of Canada amid rising dissent against him,  wrote.

Trump had earlier mocked Trudeau calling him the Governor of Canada after the president-elect registered a landslide win in the US presidential elections.

Facing rising dissent against him, Justin Trudeau Monday resigned as the leader of his Liberal Party of Canada which will effectively end his nine-year-long tenure as the country's prime minister.
