Canada's U.S. Ties Now a 'Weakness'

Canada's U.S. Ties Now a 'Weakness'

In a video address to the nation, Carney argued that the rupture in the Canada-U.S. relationship necessitates a new approach to national prosperity.

He claimed that the U.S. is increasingly acting as an economic foe under the current administration's protectionist policies.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has countered these claims, accusing Carney of 'pushing fear' and squandering Canada's leverage.

This escalating political debate comes as both countries prepare for a high-stakes review of the North American trade agreement.
