Former President Donald Trump revealed that Pete Hoekstra, a seasoned statesman and stalwart ally of the MAGA movement, has been nominated to serve as the United States Ambassador to Canada under a potential second Trump administration.
Prior to this nomination, Hoekstra served as the U.S. ambassador to the Netherlands during Trump’s first term.
Trump released the following statement:
I am very pleased to announce that former Ambassador, and former Congressman, Pete Hoekstra, has been nominated as my United States Ambassador to Canada. Pete is well-respected in the Great State of Michigan – A State we won sizably.
He represented Michigan’s 2nd District in Congress for nearly 20 years, where he was also Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, and was a great help to our Campaign as Chairman of the Michigan Republican Party.
I overhauled the disastrous NAFTA Agreement, the worst Trade Deal in the History of the United States, which was switched to the USMCA (Mexico/Canada), which no one thought could be done.
We brought Trade with Mexico and Canada to a level playing field for our wonderful Farmers and Working Families. In my Second Term, Pete will help me once again put AMERICA FIRST.
He did an outstanding job as United States Ambassador to the Netherlands during our first four years, and I am confident that he will continue to represent our Country well in this new role. Thank you, Pete!
Hoekstra’s political career began with his service as a U.S. Congressman. He was a member of the U.S. House of Representatives from 1993 to 2011, during which time he also chaired the House Intelligence Committee.
His leadership roles extended to the Michigan Republican Party, where he served as chairman and played a significant role in the 2024 election cycle, aiding Trump’s victory in Michigan.
