The reason behind his decision is his reluctance to visit what he describes as "tyrannical" Canada. During a recent episode of his "Fight Companion" podcast, Rogan expressed his disinterest in traveling to Canada, stating, "Wow. I won’t be there. I don’t go to Canada anymore."
According to the Daily Caller, Rogan's comments came as he discussed the upcoming fight between Jack Della Maddalena and Belal Muhammad with his co-hosts. Upon learning that the event would take place in Canada, Rogan reiterated his stance against visiting the country. His co-host, Brendan Schaub, supported Rogan's decision, remarking, "Nor should you. Discipline them." Rogan even jested that he would "rather go to Russia" than Canada for a fight commentary.

The sentiment expressed by Rogan and his co-hosts reflects a broader frustration with Canada, particularly in light of its perceived disrespect towards the United States since President Donald Trump assumed office. This perspective suggests a need for a more assertive approach towards Canada, with some even humorously suggesting that Canada should become the "51st state" of the United States.
