Canadian PM Carney visits Trump as relations between the longtime allies sit at a low point | LIVE
""We've had ups and downs, but this is the lowest point in relations that I can recall,""
""Canadians aren't being instructed what to do. They are simply voting with their feet,""
""I talk every day to ordinary citizens who are changing their vacation plans, and I talk to large business owners who are moving reward trips away or executive business trips. There is an outright rebellion.""
""Improving relations with the White House ahead of the USMCA review is certainly an objective of the trip, but opposition parties and part of the Canadian public will criticize Prime Minister Carney if he doesn't achieve some progress on the tariff front at this stage,""
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney will meet President Donald Trump amid sharply deteriorated Canada-U.S. relations driven by tariffs and inflammatory remarks. More than 77% of Canadian exports go to the U.S., making the USMCA review next year critical to Canada’s economy. Canadian citizens and businesses are altering travel and business plans in response to perceived betrayal and punitive measures. Carney seeks sector-specific tariff relief but faces low expectations and domestic political pressure. Analysts warn that failure to secure progress on tariffs could provoke criticism from opposition parties and parts of the Canadian public.
