Saskatchewan residents react to Trump's 2024 election victory with mixed views

Saskatchewan residents are reacting to Donald Trump's victory in the 2024 U.S. election, with opinions divided. Trump will be inaugurated as the 47th president on January 20, 2025, after defeating Kamala Harris in key battleground states. Cheryl Camillo, an American expat and professor, expressed concern about potential economic impacts on Canada and increased divisiveness in U.S. politics. In contrast, Frank Buckley, a former Trump speechwriter, argued that economic issues drove voters to support Trump, not a lack of understanding of Democratic policies. Two American expats in Saskatoon shared their views. Ben Dunning, from Wisconsin, noted his family's support for Trump but chose not to vote. Beau Sutton, originally from New York, voted for Harris, believing she was more qualified and that the campaign misjudged voter sentiment on the economy.
