U.S. senators warn of deteriorating U.S.-Canada relations due to trade tensions and declining cross-border ties.
U.S. senators, including Angus King, Thom Tillis, and Kevin Cramer, voiced concern over a growing "cultural break" in U.S.-Canada relations at the Halifax International Security Forum on November 22, 2025.
They cited Trump-era tariffs and trade tensions as damaging both economic and personal ties, with Canadians increasingly viewing Americans as adversaries.
King noted declining cross-border activities like travel for services, while Tillis criticized Canada’s long-standing failure to meet NATO defense spending goals, calling its recent pledge to reach 2% of GDP insufficient.
Cramer highlighted reduced Canadian tourism and spending in U.S. border states.
Despite tensions, senators stressed the importance of diplomacy to repair relations and restore trust.
