“I just met Wayne Gretzky, nicknamed ‘The Great One’ in hockey circles,” Trump wrote on Truth Social and continued:

“I said, ‘Wayne, why don’t you run for Prime Minister of Canada, the position that will soon be called the position of Governor of Canada. You would win easily. You wouldn’t even have to campaign.’ He wasn’t interested at all.”

In Trump’s opinion, it would be “fun to watch” what would happen if the Canadian people started demanding Gretzky to lead the country.

On Christmas Day, Trump also repeated his regional dreams regarding Greenland and the Panama Canal.
