Canada’s Opposition Leader, Pierre Poilievre, has urged the Trudeau government to address recent threats from former US President Donald Trump. Poilievre condemned Trump’s remarks targeting Canada’s steel and aluminum industries, calling them intolerable and demanding a firm government response.

Responding to Trump’s suggestion of making Canada the 51st state, Poilievre declared, “Canada is a proud, sovereign, and independent country and always will be.”

The Conservative leader criticized Trudeau and former Bank of Canada Governor Mark Carney, asserting that Canadians are strong and will not bow to external pressure. Poilievre emphasized that a Conservative government under his leadership would prioritize Canada’s interests above all.
