Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in an interview broadcast on Friday that if Republican candidate Donald Trump wins the 2024 American elections, it could damage the global effort to fight climate change.

This comment of Trudeau has come after Trump said last week that if he becomes the president again, he will withdraw the 3 billion American dollars given in the global fund for developing countries in relation to climate change.

In an interview with Canadian Broadcasting Corp, Turdeau said that Trump's statement is truly alarming, especially at a time when it is so important to move forward to protect and create the economy for future generations.

Trudeau said that Trump's withdrawal from the fight against climate change will slow the world's progress in ways that concern not only Canada but the world.

Ottawa moves closer to expanding citizenship rights for Canadians born abroad

Canada is nearing a major reform to its citizenship laws that could restore and extend rights to thousands of people born outside the country. Bill C-3, which cleared the House of Commons on November 5 and passed second reading in the Senate the following day, is now scheduled for detailed study by a Senate committee on November 17. The proposed legislation aims to broaden citizenship by descent, addressing long-standing gaps that left many children of Canadian parents without automatic citizenship due to restrictive provisions in past laws. If passed, the bill would also make it easier for in
