How Trump’s tariff threats may help unseat Canada’s Justin Trudeau

LA Times  

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, once a political star, is deeply unpopular at home and fighting for his job amid growing calls that he step down. Former U.S. President Barack Obama and Canada Prime Minister Justin Trudeau walk together in Ottawa in 2016. Conservatives and even members of his own Liberal Party insist he isn’t doing enough to counter Trump, who has threatened to levy heavy tariffs on imports from Canada, and who has trolled Trudeau in recent weeks by repeatedly describing him as “governor” of a 51st American state. Former U.S. President Donald Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau talk before a NATO meeting in England in 2019.
