Watch: Canada PM Mark Carney Dismisses U.S. Ties as a ‘Weakness’

When Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney looks across the southern border to his country’s near neighbour he doesn’t like what he sees. So great is his disappointment Carney announced Sunday that Canada’s historic reliance on the U.S. must be diminished by inking trade deals elsewhere.

“The world is more dangerous and divided,” Carney said in a 10-minute video address, adding “the U.S. has fundamentally changed its approach to trade, raising its tariffs to levels last seen during the Great Depression.”

“Many of our former strengths, based on our close ties to America, have become weaknesses. Weaknesses that we must correct,” Carney demanded, as reported by CBC news.

The former career banker and globalist bureaucrat sees change to the south – and he doesn’t like it, one bit.

“The U.S. has changed and we must respond,” said Carney, proposing the “United States will return to normal” is not a feasible strategy.
