Early voting has begun in Canada as the nation prepares to elect its next prime minister, with the threat of President Donald Trump’s trade war at the forefront of the country’s mind.

Donald Trump is trying to fundamentally change the world economy, the trading system — but really he’s trying to break us so the U.S. can own us,” Carney said at the conclusion of the debate in Montreal. “They want our land, they want our resources, they our water, they want our country. I am ready and I have managed crisis over the years. … We will fight back with counter tariffs and we will protect our workers.”
