Trump’s ongoing trade war with China — pitting the world’s two biggest economies against each other — has only worsened those fears.“If Mr. Trump undermines the confidence of the world economy and we end up in a recession, that would be a particularly bad outcome for the United States, but also for Canada as well.”Pollsters didn’t forecast a win for Trump in 2016, and so his victory came as a surprise to many political pundits.

“I have no doubt. Look at his willingness to use tariffs against Canada in discussions around the trade agreement. All of the sudden there was this idea that Canada was a national security risk, so all of the sudden putting tariffs on Canadian steel,” he said.
