Mark Carney pivots from US
Carney argued that the world has become more dangerous and divided, requiring Canada to take back control of its economic future.
The Prime Minister's shift comes as trade tensions and global uncertainty reach a peak, prompting a search for new alliances in Europe and Asia.
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has criticized the move, accusing Carney of squandering Canada's leverage with its largest trading partner.
This strategic pivot marks a significant departure from decades of integrated North American trade policy.
