Carney Pivots From US
Carney argued that the US has become an economic foe rather than an ally under the presidency of Donald Trump.
He urged Canadians to 'take back control' of their future by expanding trade relationships with other global partners.
Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre has slammed the address, accusing Carney of pushing fear to distract from domestic failures.
The shift in rhetoric signals a major realignment in Canada's long-standing foreign and economic policy.
