Will Justin Trudeau become first victim of Trump's tariff war?

The article from MSN discusses the potential impact of former U.S. President Donald Trump's proposed tariff policies on Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Trump has suggested implementing a 10% tariff on all imports if he wins the 2024 election, which could significantly affect Canada, the U.S.'s largest trading partner. This policy could lead to retaliatory measures from Canada, escalating into a trade war. Trudeau, already facing domestic political challenges, might become the first high-profile casualty of such a tariff war due to Canada's heavy reliance on trade with the U.S. The article highlights Trudeau's precarious political position, with his approval ratings low and his party trailing in polls, suggesting that any economic fallout from Trump's tariffs could further weaken his leadership. It also mentions the broader implications for global trade relations and the potential for increased economic instability.
