Most Canadians hope for Trump defeat after insults, attacks
TORONTO (AP) Donald Trump called Prime Minister Justin Trudeau weak and dishonest and attacked Canada's vital trade. He threatened tariffs on cars and imposed them on steel.
The unprecedented tone of attacks on Americas closest ally the last four years left a bitter taste, and most Canadians will be relieved if Trump is defeated in the election.
Hes been willing to threaten Canada with dire consequences in a way we have never seen before, said Roland Paris, a former senior foreign policy adviser to Trudeau.
Canada is one of the most trade-dependent countries in the world and Trumps move to rip up the North American Free Trade Agreement and call to impose a 25 percent tariff on the auto sector posed an existential threat.
