Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney officially broke things off with the United States Thursday
💥marking a seismic shift in relations between the longtime allies.

🔥“The old relationship we had with the United States based on deepening integration of our economies and tight security and military cooperation is over,”
Carney said during a press conference,
following a meeting in Ottawa with his ministers to “discuss trade options” in response to Donald Trump’s “permanent” 25 percent #tariffs on all imported vehicles and auto parts.
“What exactly the United States does next is unclear, but what is clear, what is clear is that we as Canadians have agency.

We have power. We are masters in our own home,” Carney said.

“We can control our destiny. We can give ourselves much more than any foreign government, including the United States, can ever take away.
We can deal with this crisis best by building our own strength right here at home.”

Carney warned that Canada, which is currently one of the top importers of U.S. goods, would need to reshape its economy to wean itself off its southern neighbor.
