Justin Trudeau has revealed the quip that silenced Donald Trump’s taunting that Canada should become the “51st state” during his visit to Mar-a-Lago last month. The outgoing Canadian prime minister told MSNBC’s Jen Psaki that Trump broached the question of Canada’s sovereignty—a gibe he resurfaced earlier this week after Trudeau resigned—when the pair met in December.
The footage of Trudeau was edited into a meme template of a crowd cheering. The video was originally captured in England during the Euro 2016.

He was tapped by the prime minister to chair a task force on economic growth last September, after being heavily courted to join the Liberal team. Carney was then rumoured to be joining Trudeau’s cabinet as finance minister, replacing Chrystia Freeland. But Freeland resigned, sparking a political crisis, and Carney did not end up in cabinet.
