Canada’s new leader previously denounced Trump’s planned tariffs on the country, saying Canadians would “stand up to a bully.”

He is a card-carrying member of the global technocratic elite, and he has led not one but two central banks—Britain’s and Canada’s. And he’s a regular at Davos.

Canada’s next leader is a relative political newcomer, coming instead from a decades-long career in finance where he steered governments through major global crises and periods of upheaval – experience he’s hoping to now leverage as he prepares to take over from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
