Hoekstra formerly served as U.S. Ambassador to the Netherlands and represented Michigan’s 2nd District in Congress.

President-elect Donald Trump has nominated former U.S. Ambassador to the Netherlands and former Rep. Pete Hoekstra (R-Mich.) to be the ambassador to Canada.

“In my Second Term, Pete will help me once again put America first,” Trump said in a statement announcing the nomination on Wednesday night, with all caps. “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 represented Michigan’s 2nd District in Congress for nearly 20 years, Trump said, and also served as chairman of the House Intelligence Committee.

Hoekstra played a key role in the 2024 general election as chairman of the Michigan Republican Party, which buttressed the Trump campaign’s efforts in the Wolverine State.

This is a breaking story and will be updated.
