Justin Trudeau’s replacement as Canada’s next Prime Minister sent a warning to President Trump just minutes after he was elected amid increasingly hostile relations between the United States and its northern neighbor.

Former central banker Mark Carney issued a withering takedown of Trump on Sunday immediately after he was chosen to take over Trudeau as the Liberal party leader and Prime Minister of Canada.

The 59-year-old leader made it clear that he intends to continue down Trudeau’s path of public spats with the US leader.

He accused Trump of ‘trying to weaken our economy’ in his speech to a raucous room full of Liberal party voters.

‘Donald Trump, as we know, has put unjustified tariffs on what we build, on what we sell, on how we make a living,’ he said.

‘He’s attacking Canadian workers, families and businesses. We cannot let him succeed. And we won’t.’
