Bit of a reality check: people acting as if Donald Trump is the first American President to say something ignorant about Canada really don't know anything about the relationship between Canada and the United States.
In the 1960s, old enough for an individual who was born when it happened to have died of old age, the president of the United States at the time made comment about "the tail wagging the dog" what's the implication being that Canada was small and powerless, and should know it's place in the hierarchy of American Continental politics.
In some ways, Trump's 51st state talk is an elevation from being treated like a mere territorial holding that many previous presidents expressed.
