Joe Rogan has revealed that he will not be attending the upcoming Ultimate Fighting Championship event in Montreal.

The world's most watched podcast host said he would "rather go to Russia" than travel to Canada.

The conversation took place during a recent episode of the Joe Rogan Experience with wrestler Gordon Ryan, former mixed martial artist Brendan Schaub, and martial arts instructor Eddie Bravo.

"I won't be there," Rogan said after learning that UFC 315 will be held in La Belle province on May 15. "I don't go to Canada anymore. I don't."

"Nor should you," Schaub added.

Rogan went on to say, "I'd rather go to Russia," a statement which was met with "f*ck yeah" and "hell yeah" from his guests.

"When they become the US, you never know," Ryan chimed in.

Rogan said he believed that's "never gonna happen." He called President Donald Trump's repeated threats to annex Canada "crazy," but added that "maybe it is a good idea."

Rogan admitted that "it's stupid that we hate Canada," but said he, like many on the American right, took issue with how the country has been governed under Justin Trudeau and the Liberals.

He claimed that Canadians are "losing rights," and referred to the government's response to the 2022 Freedom Convoy as "full-on communist bullsh*t." It was after that, he argued, that a lot of people "woke up."

Rogan has repeatedly defended the Canadian people while calling out those in power in Ottawa. When exactly he drew the line and decided not to cross the 49th parallel anymore is not clear.
