Trump's appointees have criticized Trudeau, warned of border issues with Canada Donald Trump's second administration is starting to take shape, and many of the people landing top jobs have been critical of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and security at Canada's border.

Fen Hampson, a professor of international affairs at Carleton University in Ottawa and co-chair of the Expert Group on Canada-U.S. Relations, says there are not many friends to Canada in Trump's camp yet. The president-elect tapped Mike Waltz to be national security adviser amid increasing geopolitical instability. Waltz has repeatedly slammed Trudeau on social media for his handling of issues related to China and recently said Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre was going to send Trudeau packing in the next Canadian election.

New York Congresswoman Elise Stefanik, Trump's choice for ambassador to the United Nations, has expressed concerns on social media about security at the Canadian border. Chrystia Freeland says carbon rebate for small businesses will be tax-free.
