In Canada, Liberal Prime Minister Mark Carney won the federal election this week with his message to stand up to President Donald Trump and his policies.
But in three cities in Ontario, liberal incumbents who campaigned against Trump lost their seats. That includes Detroit’s neighbor, Windsor, where the CBC reports Conservatives swept the area for the first time in 95 years.
Ahead of the election, WDET’s All Things Considered host and Senior News Editor Russ McNamara spent some time in Windsor talking to more than a dozen Canadians. He joined The Metro to share what he learned from those conversations.
