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.'
Opposition Conservatives hoped to make the election about Trudeau, who shed tears on Sunday while giving his farewell address to the party. The outgoing prime minister's popularity declined as food and housing prices rose and immigration surged.
Trump has repeatedly touted his ambition to annex Canada, referring to Trudeau as 'Governor Trudeau' and the nation as America's '51st state.'
He has also embarked on a trade war with Canada, imposing 25 percent tariffs on all goods imported from Mexico and Canada on Tuesday.
Trump's trade war and his talk of making Canada the 51st state infuriated Canadians, who have been booing the US national anthem at NHL and NBA games.
