Trudeau Sets Up War Room To Deal With Trump Admin Dangerous Unpredictability
“The PMO’s unprecedented new Canada-U.S. relations ‘war room’ led by
Brian Clow is being lauded by observers as a smart move, created to help
coordinate the Trudeau government’s quick response and strategy to U.S.
President Donald Trump’s unpredictable new administration. ‘There’s not
been a unit like this set up within the PMO to the best of my
knowledge,’ said Greg MacEachern, a senior vice-president at Environics
Communications and former Liberal staffer. ‘Obviously, the prime
minister wants to be keeping a very close eye on this. … It’s an
unprecedented situation in the U.S. we’re watching.’”
