Former prime ministers Stephen Harper and Jean Chrétien called on Canadians to stand united and help the country become less dependent on the United States to counter economic and sovereignty threats from U.S. President Donald Trump.
The onetime Conservative and Liberal leaders sat down to talk about the country’s challenges Monday at an event held by the Royal Canadian Geographical Society, where Mr. Harper was awarded a gold medal for his promotion of Arctic sovereignty and national parks as prime minster from 2006 to 2015.
