Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew says, “I think America is weaker around the world today than it was a year ago. He’s about to get slaughtered in the midterms, and the cost of living is the No. 1 issue, and he is completely out of touch with the cost of living of Americans.”

“I think we’ve got the upper hand. They’re back on their heels right now. They’re coming to us right now, and so I think we should fight.”

“But it’s not about me, it’s about Team Canada — what we’ve been saying for the past year, year and a half, since all this tariff nonsense started.”
