FRNT04-48 Preston Manning

Is Canada losing the trade war with Trump before the real fight even begins? Preston Manning joins David Leis for a blunt conversation about Trump, tariffs, Canada-U.S. trade negotiations, and Alberta’s upcoming referendum. Manning says counter-tariffs won't solve the problem, they could leave Canadians paying the price. He argues Canada needs a better negotiating team, a smarter strategy, and a willingness to play the long game. They also discuss why Trump’s criticism gets under Canadians’ skin, how Canada could reach Trump through American voters, and why Alberta’s referendum could have major implications for Canada’s future.
