Pierre Poilievre's campaign message for years now has basically been Canada first. He's just been smarter about it so he doesn't attract media negativity comparing him to Trump, so he doesn't call it Canada first.

Pierre sure isn't Trump, but he's certainly more Trump than Trudeau, and if that was such a bad thing, he wouldn't be on track to easily win a majority Gov next year. All this move by Trump is doing is bringing this all to light. It's not really happening because of Trump, it's been in the works for quite a while now.
