Poilievre says Trudeau a ‘human piñata’ at NATO, still won’t commit to spending goal
Pierre Poilievre says NATO allies treated Prime Minister Justin Trudeau like a human piñata at the leaders’ summit this week — but he still won’t commit to the alliance’s spending goal.
The Conservative leader says Canada has lost its place on the international stage under the Liberal government, and Trudeau lectures the world without doing his part.
The prime minister announced Thursday that he expects to hit NATO’s defence spending target in 2032 after facing days of pressure at the three-day meeting in Washington, D.C.
He did not share details about how Canada will get there.
