Pierre Poilievre, leader of Canada's Conservative Party, is attempting to distance himself from Donald Trump amidst public discontent regarding Trump's threats against Canada. In a recent statement, Poilievre highlighted Trump's preference for a Liberal prime minister and vowed to always prioritize Canada. His party has experienced a significant drop in popularity, attributed to Trump's aggressive stance and the recent political shift following Justin Trudeau's resignation. As the federal election approaches, Poilievre faces the challenge of formulating a clear messaging strategy without alienating key voter segments.
Amid public anger towards Trump's threats against Canada, Poilievre aims to distance himself from the U.S. president while struggling with slumping polls.
Poilievre stated, 'I'm a strong leader, a tough guy to deal with. I'm firm in my convictions, and I'll always put Canada first.'
Experts suggest Trump's threats and Trudeau's exit as Liberal leader have contributed to the Conservatives' decline in public opinion polls.
As Poilievre grapples with messaging, he's wary of alienating both Trump supporters and voters who may be turned off by Trump's rhetoric.
