Carney says Canada cannot ignore risk of US military action
Canadian prime minister says the possibility of US president Donald Trump using the military to pursue his goal of making Canada part of the US cannot be ignored.
Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney has warned US President Donald Trump that Canada will never become part of the US, according to The New York Times. In an interview, Carney, a former central banker for Britain and Canada, discussed the possibility that Trump might utilize US military force to achieve this goal. Carney emphasized the importance of considering extreme tail risk, stating it is a matter of responsible risk management.
The Canadian Prime Minister reiterated that Canada will never become part of the US, despite the strained relationship between the two nations due to Trump's trade war and his desire to transform Canada into a US state. Negotiations aimed at easing the trade conflict ceased on August 21. However, polls indicate that a significant portion of Canadians no longer view the US as a friendly neighbor.
