US Embassy Accuses Canada of Electoral Sabotage
Tension has escalated between the United States and Canada after the U.S. Embassy in Ottawa accused Canadian officials of interfering in the U.S. midterm elections, based on documents, meetings with American Democrats, and calls for retaliatory tariffs on states supporting Trump's administration. The Canadian response came from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who denied these claims and affirmed that Canadian measures, including a $9 billion Canadian dollar economic support package, aim to protect local jobs and businesses. Industry Minister Melanie Joly also denied any intention of interference, focusing instead on attracting investments. Meanwhile, Ontario Premier Doug Ford emphasized that voting choices are solely up to the American people. The U.S. ambassador to Canada faces public outrage, with a petition calling for his dismissal surpassing 280,000 signatures amid fears that the midterm elections might influence Trump’s final term.
