Canada–U.S. relations remain focused on ongoing trade negotiations under the CUSMA framework amid tariff pressures, making any expulsion of Ambassador Pete Hoekstra highly disruptive. A parliamentary petition with over 60,000 signatures, scheduled for presentation in the House of Commons this fall, calls for Hoekstra to be declared persona non grata over accusations of political interference and statements tied to U.S. policy comments. However, Prime Minister Mark Carney’s government has signaled it will not pursue removal, viewing such a step as counterproductive to bilateral priorities. Petitions carry no binding authority, and historical precedent shows Canada reserves ambassador expulsions for acute crises rather than public campaigns. Traders price the December 31 deadline as improbable given these diplomatic and economic constraints.

An announcement of a qualifying expulsion will suffice for a “Yes” resolution, regardless of whether the Ambassador actually leaves the country.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the Canadian government; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.Canada–U.S. relations remain focused on ongoing trade negotiations under the CUSMA framework amid tariff pressures, making any expulsion of Ambassador Pete Hoekstra highly disruptive.
