US President Donald Trump was once called “Voldemort" – the villain in the legendary Harry Potter books and movies – by one of the front-runners to replace Justin Trudeau as the new leader of Canada’s Liberal Party.
Mark Carney, who never held elected office, weighed in on Trump repeatedly labelling Canada the 51st state of the US, and publicly called him “Voldemort".
“When you think about what’s at stake in these ridiculous, insulting comments of the president, of what we could be, I view this as the sort of Voldemort of comments. I will not even repeat it, but you know what I’m talking about," he said at an event.
Trump has, time and again, dubbed Canada the “51st state of the United States" and also called Trudeau the Governor of the 51st state.
Trudeau announced in January that he would step down as the Canadian PM amid mounting pressure and dissatisfaction over his performance in the country.
