Voters Push Back on Trump's Lake Ontario Rename and Canada Tariffs

New polls show broad U.S. opposition to both Trump's executive order to rename Lake Ontario and his 50% tariffs on Canadian goods, with Democrats and independents mostly against and even a sizable share of Republicans opposed.

The Playbook Canada episode also covers Conservative MP Matt Jeneroux’s floor crossing and Conservative MP Scott Aitchison’s call from Milan to talk Olympics, housing, and Parliament.
