Carney tells Trump: Canada 'won't be for sale ever'
Carney's first visit to the White House since his election comes as the U.S.-Canada trade relationship has been upended as a result of Trump's tariffs.
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney told Donald Trump on Tuesday that his country will never be for sale, shutting down the U.S. president’s repeated calls to make Canada the 51st state.
“There are some places that are never for sale,” Carney said in the Oval Office.
Canada is “not for sale” and “won’t be for sale ever,” the prime minister said.
Trump replied: “Never say never.”
You're viewing a single thread.
Carney should have said something like “if you want our countries to be friends, then start treating us like a friend and start acting like a friend.”
Talk to Trump at his level, akin to a 5 year old.
Carney has been dealing with international finances and issues his whole career. He IS talking to Trump like he’s a 5 year old. A 5 year old out of control. Carney's restraint and diplomacy was exemplary.
He's not a 5yo, he's a sociopath.
And a megalomaniac with Alzheimer’s
The sad thing is, this doesn't sound odd or unusual whatsoever. Given the current lack of decorum, I automatically assume this is how everyone must speak to him.
Don’t underestimate Mark Carney. He was the former Governor of the Bank of England and was a prominent figure in discussions surrounding Brexit, particularly in relation to its economic implications that Brexit could bring to the UK economy. He argued AGAINST Brexit. He was right.
Vance would be begging to become another meme over that
