Slotkin on Canada Relationship: Tough moment, but there is a future after President Trump

Published | Video Starts at 04:23

S Relationship? Well, look, I mean I'm thinking about it as a state that has borders, many borders with Canada.

Those are things that I see as a, I'm a former CIA officer. They're national security issues, not just economic security issues. So again, I understand that Canada is looking elsewhere and trying to diversify. (04:23–04:37)
