Poilievre made the remarks as he outlined his vision for Canada-US relations.
In a speech at the Economic Club of Canada outlining his vision for Canada-U.S. relations, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre mentioned U.S. President Donald Trump by name and criticized him for his “51st State” rhetoric. Poilievre also countered Trump’s false claims about the U.S. trade deficit with Canada, noting that the U.S. benefits by getting Canadian energy at below market prices. In addition, Poilievre said Trump was wrong to ignore the sacrifices Canadians made in Afghanistan “exclusively in response to an attack on our American neighbours.”
The strong remarks represent Poilievre’s most direct criticism of the U.S. President in quite some time and align well with the overwhelmingly negative opinion held by the vast majority of the Canadian public toward the U.S. President.
