Canadian foreign affairs minister says Canada is preparing a 'game plan' in case of a far-right shift in USPolitician notes she wonders 'how we as a democracy are able to thwart the growth of the far right in our country
Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly reportedly stated in an interview that Canada has been
working on a "game plan" for the outcome of America's upcoming presidential election.
Joly was first elected to represent the Ahuntsic-Cartierville region of Canada in the House of Commons in 2015. Since then, she has been risen to become Canada’s foreign affairs minister and been
named a young global leader by the World Economic Forum. In late 2022, a piece in Politico speculated that Joly, as a "Trudeau protégé" might "one day have his job."
She reportedly added, "I will work with my colleagues and with the mayors, the provincial premiers, with the business community, with the unions, with everyone in the country, so that we are ready regardless of the election outcome."
During the same interview, she declared that "the other aspect of the question is more about knowing how we as a democracy are able to thwart the growth of the far right in our country, because it’s happening in the United States, it’s happening in Europe."
Joly has condemned political opposition at home and abroad before, such as when she appeared to blame American conservatives for interfering in Canadian politics by supporting truckers in the Freedom Convoy as they protested against vaccine mandates.
