Canada’s economic independence is facing unprecedented pressure in early 2026 as the Trump administration revives a muscular foreign policy dubbed ‘Donroeism’ – a modern twist on the 19th-century Monroe Doctrine. 🔥 The term, trending since January 3rd, reflects Washington’s aggressive moves to dominate the Western Hemisphere through military and economic leverage.
What’s ‘Donroeism’? 🤔
Named after Donald Trump and the Monroe Doctrine, this strategy aims to make the Americas ‘America’s America’ again through:
🇻🇪 Military interventions (like January’s Venezuela operation)
💸 Economic coercion via dollar dominance
🗺️ Expansionist rhetoric about annexing Greenland – or even Canada
Canada in the Crosshairs 🍁
As Trump floats annexation ideas, analysts warn Canada’s resource-rich economy is particularly vulnerable. The US already controls:
60%+ of Canada’s trade flows
Key energy infrastructure
Critical supply chains through 2025 agreements
With Trump vowing to ‘renegotiate everything’ this year, Ottawa faces tough choices between sovereignty and economic survival. 🌐💼
