Not many in the U.S. have raised their voices in defence of Canada over the past three months – at a time when the American president has repeatedly said he will force Canada to its knees economically in order to annex it – but a few have. One of the earliest of those was the United Steelworkers union (USW), which represents thousands of workers on both sides of the Canada-U.S. border.

Here’s a fantasy election campaign. It’s a campaign that, in many respects – save one crucial one – resembles the real campaign happening right now in Canada. The date is March 23, 2025. A new Liberal Prime Minister, who has held office for 10 days, triggers a federal election for April 28, making for the shortest campaign legally permitted, 37 days. The new PM signals a rightward shift for his party.

The Canadian Prime Minister could not have put it more clearly. Donald Trump, he said, is dead serious when he says he wants to annex Canada. Trump’s ambitions constitute a dire and dangerous threat to Canada’s very existence, the likes of which we have not seen since the 19th century. Justin Trudeau candidly told Canadians (and the world) that the only reason Trump started the current trade battle with this country was to impoverish Canada so that it will be ripe for the picking.

When Ontario’s premier Doug Ford called an early winter election, he said he needed an increased majority to deal with the Trump threat. Ontarians weren’t fooled by that spurious, self-serving excuse. They told pollsters and journalists they did not believe an early election, for a cost of $189 million, was justified. But Ford succeeded in his gambit nonetheless. He won a third majority in a row – although it was slightly smaller than his previous majority, in 2022.
