Heinrich asks Gabbard why her Annual Threat Assessment's section on fentanyl doesn't even mention Canada given Trump justified tariffs on the basis of the "unusual & extraordinary" fentanyl threat from Canada.

Heinrich: "It's less than 1%".

Trudeau: We’re probably going to keep booing the American anthem. But let me tell Americans, we're not booing you. We're booing a policy that is designed to hurt us. 

But we're Canadian. We're going to fight. And we're going to win.
