In the summer of 1866, more than 1,000 Irish-American veterans of the Fenian Brotherhood crossed the Niagara River and defeated the Canadian militia at the Battle of Ridgeway. They intended to take the British colony of Canada "hostage" in exchange for Irish independence .

The American government cut off their supply lines, and the Irish freedom fighters were forced to return to the United States . Ironically, the Fenian raids did not bring independence to Ireland, but they did bring independence to Canada . Canada no longer trusted the British to protect its borders, and in 1867 it became an autonomous entity.

Later commissions settled minor boundary disputes, surveyed and established precise demarcation lines, ordered the maintenance of monuments and buoys, and cleared areas of brush and vegetation.

In the 21st century, the Canada-US border was closed without warning after the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, preventing goods and people from crossing. The countries then worked together to develop procedures for commercial traffic in emergency situations. In 2020, the rules were applied during the COVID-19 pandemic, the first time the border was closed for such a long period since the War of 1812.

Meanwhile

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Trump investor database to distract from tariffs on Canadian goods with his ideas about Canada joining the United States . "Now all everyone is talking about is Trump wanting to make Canada the 51st state, rather than the real issue that could raise the cost of living for Americans and hurt a very good trade relationship with us."

The Prime Minister has repeatedly stressed that Canada will never become part of the United States . Moreover, Trudeau took to heart the way Trump repeatedly jokingly called him the governor of an American state.

A poll conducted by Leger found that 82 percent of Canadians would prefer to live independently of the United States rather than join it. Fortune estimates that more than 90 percent of Canadians oppose joining the United States . Some have directly stated that they consider it "a mockery of the Canadian population," "an insult to the government," and "a misunderstanding of international relations."
