Prime Minister Trudeau Announces A New Plan (news spoof)

International News - February 11, 2025 

Prime Minister Trudeau held a press conference in Montreal last night after attending the opening of a new opera house recently completed for Canada's prestigious Opera de Minuit.  In talking with reporters, Trudeau announced the upcoming adoption by Canada of the Continental United States to form what will hence be called the Province of South Canada.  

The transfer of this "poorly managed adjunct territory" into the central orbit of the mature Canadian empire will take place on a date Trudeau promises to announce next week, after he visits Melania and Donald Trump at their home, with the explicit intent to arrange for the benevolent care of the aging gentleman in his autumnal senescence.  

While the Washington DC Capitol Building will house the new Provincial government, Trudeau has graciously decided to convert the White House into a gambling casino like the world has never known, so well funded that it will create thousands of jobs, and attract people from all over the world for a level of fun rarely seen.  Through the skilled satisfaction of the needs of influential jet setters, the happy mingling of peoples from many nations at this site may produce a shift toward international peace and a sense of global wellbeing.  

Some have asked whether or not the proposed arrangement is fair to the Trump couple, but Trudeau has noted that the proposed change arises solely out of a feeling that Donald and Melania need help and that those who are less needy need to reach out to provide for them.  Toward that end, Trudeau emphasizes that the Trumps will be welcome to stay at the casino and share   in the revelry after the White House upgrade.  Ottawa will use the proceeds from the White Casino first to pay off debts incurred in its construction, and subsequently to promote world peace.  If the citizens of South Canada attempt any future violent overthrow of elections, the White Casino will serve during such time as safe refuge and deployment center for law abiding legislators and law enforcement agents injured in the line of duty.

No one was able to determine this evening whether or not Trudeau had come up with this idea on the spur of the moment or had been working on it since his early childhood, when he wrote a school paper that presciently anticipated the value of this proposal.
