Poilievre calls U.S. ‘unreliable,’ vows to revoke defence, trade commitments if Washington keeps violating pacts with Ottawa

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says the United States is no longer a reliable partner and has vowed that, if his party were to form the next government, he would revoke defence and market access agreements with Washington if it violated a renegotiated trade deal with Canada.

He also pledged during a campaign stop in Kingston that he would eliminate the 5-per-cent federal goods and services tax on purchases of new, Canadian-made automobiles and light trucks, for a $2,500 savings on vehicles that cost $50,000.
