> Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre urged Canada to use the U.S. midterm results to pursue tariff-free trade. Saying “Americans hate these tariffs,” he called on Prime Minister Mark Carney to use Canada’s “massive leverage” and offered to work with him. Dominic LeBlanc, the minister responsible for Canada-U.S. trade, cautioned against reading too much into Americans’ votes.
