Trump says Canadians 'want' to become the 51st US state. Is this even possible?

He's been publicly referring to Trudeau as a "governor" and claiming Canadians are keen to join their bigger neighbour. This comes amid a tariff dispute and political crisis in Canada, and while unlikely, it raises the question of whether Trump's theory would be at all possible. Vedika Bahl goes through the likelihood in this edition of Truth or Fake.
