Diplomatic squabbles along the Ottawa-Washington line. The embassy issued a statement
In response to U.S. trade actions, Canadian officials emphasize protecting jobs and businesses. The embassy's document cites statements from key politicians, including Carney and Joly, regarding strategic pressure on U.S. products. Concerns about foreign interference in Canadian elections were raised, particularly regarding Alberta's referendum on secession. U.S. officials have warned against perceived Canadian interference in American elections, leading to a petition in Canada to declare the U.S. ambassador persona non grata, which has garnered significant support.
