Summary
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney declared an end to Canada-U.S. relations centered on economic integration and security cooperation after Trump imposed permanent 25% tariffs on imported vehicles and auto parts.
Carney vowed to reduce Canada’s reliance on the U.S. and develop alternative trade partnerships.
He condemned the tariffs as a “very direct attack” and pledged to defend Canadian workers and industries.
Trump admitted to using tariffs to pressure Canada, leading to fears of economic fallout for northern U.S. states and immediate stock market impacts on automakers.
Oh yeah absolutely. Like any newly minted fascist state America will need its own Generalplan Ost sooner or later. That’s shaping up to be Canada, but it could also be Iran. Feels weird to say that, but yeah let’s hope for a civil war.
