Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has told The New York Times that he has considered the remote possibility of a US military action against Canada. The Prime Minister said his administration has conducted a thorough examination of the "extreme tail risk" scenario, where the US takes military action against Canada. Carney emphasized that this risk assessment is a matter of responsible risk management, though he clarified that it does not represent the most likely outcome.
The tensions between the two neighboring countries have escalated under US President Donald Trump, who has frequently referred to Canada as the "51st state" and initiated a trade war with Canada. Despite this, Carney maintains that there is still potential to resume trade negotiations with the US, which he believes would be mutually beneficial.
