On September 11, Pierre Poilievre, leader of the Conservative Party of Canada, stated that Canada possesses abundant oil and mineral resources that could help alleviate inflationary pressures in the United States, but the Trump administration needs to relax its tariff policies against Canada. Poilievre strongly promoted Canada's 'affordable energy' and mentioned that he has discussed establishing a 'strategic mineral and oil national reserve' with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney for allies to use in times of need. Poilievre said, 'By strengthening trade with Canada, we can lower your cost of living. We can ensure that in the event of future conflicts—hopefully never occurring—we have ample supplies while also restoring the industrial base across the North American continent. But this must be achieved through cooperation.'
