Opening week of Trump presidential reality: the drama is all Mexico, no Canada
WASHINGTON — The first week of Donald Trump’s presidency promised Canada two bridges, one oil pipeline and a set of locks.
Mexico got a wall.
America’s two neighbours had vastly different experiences in Week 1 of the reality-TV-star’s presidency — Canada away from the spotlight, quietly hoping for the best, while Mexico featured in tension-filled plot twists.
In just a few hours Thursday, Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto cancelled a planned trip to the U.S., and also promised to use his country’s 50 diplomatic buildings located on American soil to help migrants.
