Joe Logan, one of America’s leading podcasters, is clearly an advocate for the peaceful coexistence of the US with Canada.
He has been quoted as having an impact on Donald Trump being re-electioned as US president again, but he has made it clear that America needs to retreat by increasing international tensions with Canada.
“Why are we angry with Canada? This is a stupid tariff,” Logan said on a March 14 episode of his popular podcast, Joe Logan Experience, while chatting with comedian Michael Costa.

When two men saw a clip from the Four Nations Cup’s Canadian US Finals, Rogan said, “100% (Canadians) booed us over tariffs.”
Costa responds by telling the story of a stand-up gig at Edmonton during the 2010 Olympic Hockey Gold Medal Game. “It was like the whole f**kingdom went to the bathroom at the same time.”
Logan laughed, then continued his pro-Canadian sentiment.
“We have to make friends with Canada again… This is so ridiculous. I can’t believe there is anti-American anti-Canadian sentiment happening. It’s the most ridiculous.”
Costa asks Logan if there are any anti-Canadian sentiments in fact, and Logan responds to Americans mocking voices critical of Canada.
Logan suggests that Canada doesn’t have an army, but he’s ready to let it go: “Let’s deal with it as is.”

Both men knew Canada was about to vote, but admitted they didn’t understand our electoral system.
Still, Logan says, “I just want to get along with America and Canada. (This) is ridiculous.”
He expressed his disagreement with Trump. “I really don’t think they should be our 51st state. There. I said.”
Instead, Logan meditates that Greenland will be in its 51st state. “It’s more accessible. You can probably buy it… Plus, if global warming is real for all the digging and oil…it’s good to have a cold spot.”
The North American rift began in December when Trump began calling Canada the 51st state of the United States. Then, further controversy was promoted, and Trump launched a tariff war on Canadian goods such as wood, aluminum and steel.
This controversy has been boiled down to the world of sports. In the world of sports, the US national anthem is gaining weight during sporting events in Canada. The national anthems of both countries are played before all NBA and NHL games are played in Canada. Videos where the US national anthem is booed before the chip-off or pack-drop goes viral.
