Canada's Ambassador to US urged Ottawa to establish relations with Trump team
The Canadian Ambassador to the United States, Kirsten Hillman, called on Ottawa to establish relations with Donald Trump's team, RIA Novosti reports
Ms. Hillman believes that Canada should establish relations with Donald Trump’s team in order to prepare for joint work in case the former US president wins the upcoming elections. The diplomat noted the importance of America as Canada's closest economic partner and ally.
"When an important moment comes for Americans, we need to make sure that we are aware of events and do everything possible to ensure that Canada is best prepared to shift or change direction. It is very important to make sure that we have established all, or as many, relationships with people who give advice to Trump’s second administration, with people who will work with him," Ms. Hillman said in an interview with CBC.
