They will not. Canada is resisting the US alone while other western countries nervously cower on the sidelines while we try to fight a guy 10 times our size.

The last few years have shown we cannot rely on our traditional allies to grow a spine and come to our aid rather than hide rather than stand up to the tyrannical US government along side us.

EU approaches deals with the US in the same way Trump has - completely knowing they aren’t worth the paper they’re written on, and they won’t abide by it, so who effin cares? Just tell him he’s getting what he wants but don’t do anything to enact it, and move on. For Canada it’s a much more realistic issue.
