Joe Rogan doesn't want Canada to be US' 51st state

He stated his stance.

Podcaster Joe Rogan is against Canada becoming the 51st member of the United States — but he’s not ruling out bringing Greenland into the fold.

“All I want is for America and Canada to have a good relationship. It’s absurd,” said “The Joe Rogan Experience” presenter during a conversation with comedian Mark Kosta on the topic of the ongoing trade dispute between the two neighboring nations.

President Trump, whom Rogan has consistently backed and featured as a guest prior to the 2024 election, has suggested on multiple occasions that Canada could become the 51st state, even before imposing 25% tariffs on the country.

“I don’t really think they should be our 51st state. There. I said it,” Rogan confessed with a laugh.

“We need to mend ties with Canada. This situation is just so silly,” remarked the most popular podcaster in the world, emphasizing, “This feud is completely senseless.”

The UFC host added he thought it would “be fun” if Canada became the 51st star on Old Glory — though another piece of land, high on longitudinal lines, does tickle his fancy.

“I think Greenland is more accessible. Could probably buy that. If we want a 51st state, it’s Greenland,” Rogan told Kosta.

“Plus, if global warming is real, because of all the digging and oil and all that s–t, you know, would be good to have a cold spot to eventually warm up,” he joked.

Kosta and Rogan added that the natural resources of Greenland, namely rare earth minerals, add to its desirability.

Despite endorsing Canadian independence, Rogan had some critiques for the leaf-lovers.

“Canada’s just on another level with their wokeness,” he said, then, addressing the camera directly, “Come back to us, Canada. Come back to us.”

Rogan also poked fun at Americans who complained about the United States “subsidizing Canada.”

Trump has repeatedly made strong-arm overtures of unification based on Canadian dependence on the United States for trade and military protection.

“Canada is a Tariff abuser, and always has been, but the United States is not going to be subsidizing Canada any longer,” Trump wrote on Truth Social during the public dispute with Canadian politicians earlier this month.

“We don’t need your Cars, we don’t need your Lumber, we don’t your Energy, and very soon, you will find that out,” Trump threatened in the post.

Whopping tariffs on Canada and Mexico are expected to go into effect on April 2.
