:: Vancouver, Canada
“Canada is strong. We can give ourselves far more than anyone can take away. We’re building this great country. I just met with the Premier, building BC, building Canada, building in a Canadian way. Building sustainably, building together, building positively, and that’s what we’re going to do. And yes, we will, we’ll come to something with the Americans, something constructive with the Americans.”
Carney made the comments while visiting the Vancouver Pride Parade, while also insisting that “Canada is strong” and would continue building on its own.
Carney and U.S. President Donald Trump will likely talk in the coming days after the U.S. imposed a 35% tariff on goods not covered by the U.S.-Mexico-Canada trade agreement, a Canadian official said on Sunday.
