Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney says close economic ties with the US have become a weakness
In a 10-minute video released Sunday, Canadian PM Mark Carney said decades of close economic ties with the United States have become a 'weakness' that Canada must correct. Carney signaled Canada needs to diversify trade partnerships and reduce dependence on the US, citing Trump's tariff increases to levels not seen since the Great Depression. His Liberal Party recently secured a parliamentary majority, and a review of the US-Canada-Mexico free trade pact is scheduled for July.
