Canada’s ambassador to the U.S., Kirsten Hillman, said on Sunday that Canadians are “perplexed” and “confused” by tariffs enacted by President Trump.
“Canadians are perplexed, I think disappointed,” Hillman told ABC News’s George Stephanopoulos. “We view ourselves as your — your neighbor, your closest friend, your ally, you know, a country whose — whose citizens have fought and died with you around the world, in defense of values that we share, who [have] come to the aid of the Los Angeles fires most recently.”
“And I think they are really perplexed by this move. So I don’t think anybody will need to tell Canadians what to do, I [think] that they will make their decisions on their own.”
“You say perplexed. Do Canadians feel betrayed?” Stephanopoulos asked Hillman.
“I think … I think they’re confused,’” Hillman responded.
