Caught in the middle, this quaint US exclave is grappling with Trump ’s trade war with Canada .

Tensions between the U.S. and Canada have spiked to a level not seen before in modern times thanks to Trump 's on-again, off-again threat to place taxes on a long list of goods going across the border.

About 75% of the Point Roberts precinct voted for a presidential candidate other than Trump , which is a higher percentage than across Whatcom County as well as the statewide turnout, according to the 2024 election results.

With no end in sight, there’s also a high-stakes fear that the dispute could escalate with Canada possibly imposing tariffs on the water and electricity that it supplies to Point Roberts .
