Carney Defends Canada Amid Trade Tensions | Anchorage News

Prime Minister Mark Carney is standing firm against escalating U.S. trade tensions, as President Trump ramps up threats of new 50% tariffs on Canadian goods starting August 19th — calling out Canada’s leadership as “nasty” and even suggesting Canada should become a U.S. state. While tariffs on steel, aluminum, and cars are already biting, Carney insists Canada remains at the table to protect jobs and businesses, noting U.S. aluminum tariffs have spiked prices by 58% domestically. U.S. officials blame Canada and China for retaliating, but Ottawa says their moves are justified responses. Meanwhile, Americans are feeling the pinch — and some Canadians are canceling trips to the States over the mounting hostility.
