Jagmeet Singh says 'Trump acting like an internet troll', wants Canada to impose retaliatory tariffs on US

I will be solely focused on the real economic threat that American tariffs represent to the Canadian economy and to Canadian workers. It's a full-time job and I'm lucky to have it,

LeBlanc said

Marc Miller (politician)immigration Minister

(LeBlanc's) decision to stay on is an intellectually sound one, it's an important one to keep stability in the country in a time where thousands of jobs could be at risk if Mr. Trump goes through on the imposition of tariffs. That will be our number 1 focus,

This is a strong and sovereign country, and it will always be a strong and sovereign country,

Mélanie Jolyforeign Affairs Minister

When president-elect Trump talks, we need to listen and we need to take him very seriously. I never take his threats lightly, but at the same time we can't take the bait,

Joly said

Bruce Heymanamerican banker and diplomat

I don’t think everybody should be overreacting to this at this moment,

Heyman said

Certainly we’d like to have less uncertainty in the federal government right now,

he added

It's silly, it's unbecoming of a president to say that, but we do have to take it seriously and we will continue to do that,

he said

Unfortunately, the president-elect has become enamoured with the line and he is almost just reverting to it in an unconscious way,

he said

He's not and we are taking it seriously and we will respond seriously as well,

she said

He's saying: you know what, time's up, the U.S. is not going be the ATM anymore for anybody, not Canada, not anybody else,

the Ontario resident said

As an American living in Canada, it is really sad to watch,

said Wesoky, who voted for Trump's rival Kamala Harris

So this rhetoric that really goes against this relationship that is built on trust and respect ... I think is not only dangerous, but it'll be detrimental to the U.S economy,

he said

He's not asking for anything unreasonable,

she said

Sometimes, you know, he says things that perhaps he shouldn't say, and I'm hoping that this will be one of those instances where he's not going to follow through on (tariffs),

she said

The whole idea that Canada would be a single state in the U.S. or that the U.S. wants Canada to be a state is kind of preposterous,

he said

David Ebybritish Columbia Premier

It makes no sense to punish both Americans and Canadians to address that issue. We can do it together,

Eby said

Given the state of the federal government currently, the leadership on this file has come from the premiers across Canada, and so we're going to continue to do that work,

he said

So, if a retaliation measure, for example, required provincial legislation, or if there were a co-ordinated border initiative that required provincial legislation, we wouldn't hesitate,

he said

I went to Palm Beach for a couple of days. On Saturday, we discussed Canada,

O’Leary said Monday evening on “The Hill” on NewsNation

If Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre wins the next Canadian Federal Election (and with a majority government) it might help create a stronger bond between our PM and the U.S. President,
