Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre congratulated Donald Trump on his election victory in a post on social media, while highlighting the need for tax cuts to protect Canadian jobs amid the potential rise in competition from the United States.

“Yesterday’s [election] result confirms we must cancel [Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s] plan to quadruple the carbon tax and hike other taxes, which would push hundreds of thousands more jobs south where President Trump will be cutting taxes even further,” he wrote on social media platform X on Nov. 6.
