- Mark Carney, the Liberal leader, expresses optimism and emphasizes the need to maintain Canadian sovereignty amid the trade crisis.
- His strategic approach, rooted in calm competence, has led to a surge in his party's poll numbers while support for the NDP declines.
- Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre faces the challenge of adapting his message to appeal to Trump-influenced voters, while some of his base supports Trump.
- Carney calls for a united Canada that stands firm against U.S. threats while also focusing on addressing internal challenges.
I think that currently (Carney is) doing a very good job as prime minister by basically saying ‘I will come to the table if you are respecting Canadian sovereignty.’ … I think that we should be willing to work with the United States if these threats and annexation threats and economic threats are dropped, but I don't think that we should forget.— Lex Powell-Tucci, a 35-year-old Ottawa banker, speaks about Carney's approach towards the U.S.
