Canada hit back at Trump tariffs. Now the U.S. alleges possible election interference.

The U.S. Embassy in Canada accused Canadian leaders of planning to 'influence American politics,' citing Industry Minister Mélanie Joly's remarks about targeting tariffs at U.S. states. The accusation follows Canada's retaliatory tariffs ahead of the midterms. Prime Minister Mark Carney said all actions are in Canada's interest, but the dispute further strains U.S.-Canada relations.
