Trump's re-election raises challenges for Trudeau and Canada-US relations

Donald Trump's re-election as U.S. President raises concerns for Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Trump's "America First" policies could lead to trade tariffs and increased defense spending, straining Canada-U.S. relations and impacting Canada's economy, which heavily relies on U.S. trade. Trudeau's government is preparing for potential economic disruptions, including a proposed 10% tariff on imports. Analysts warn that Trump's policies may force Canada to reassess its defense strategy and could complicate domestic issues like inflation and healthcare. The return of Trump also raises fears of increased migration pressures on Canada due to his immigration policies. Trudeau's administration faces a challenging landscape, balancing U.S. interests with Canadian sovereignty and social stability amid potential trade wars and geopolitical tensions.
