Prime Minister Carney has pushed back against the Trump administration in a series of extraordinary statements.
Carney denied a claim by U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent that he retracted a recent speech that challenged the economically coercive agenda of the U.S.
Carney rejected Bessent’s characterization that he “aggressively” walked back “some of the unfortunate remarks he made” in his Davos speech.
Carney’s speech was hailed by other global political and business leaders as a welcome dose of candour and challenge to Trump’s agenda.
Prime Minister Mark Carney clarified, “To be absolutely clear, and I said this to the president, I meant what I said in Davos.”
The prime minister said in French, “The world has changed, Washington has changed, there’s nearly nothing normal in the U.S. now and that’s the truth.”
