Decades old relationship between Canada and America has always been an example. Deep economic and security cooperation, military support, and business agreements made both countries a strong partner, but now the statement made by Canadian Prime Minister Mark Karney raises a big question about these old relationships. He said, ‘Now that old relationship is over. & Nbsp;
Actually this statement came after President Donald Trump’s announcement to impose 25 percent tariff on vehicle imports in America. This decision can be extremely disastrous for Canada’s auto industry, as about 5,00,000 people are connected to this industry. Describing Trump’s move as ‘unjust’, Carney said that it is a violation of the current business agreements made between the two countries. & Nbsp;
violation of agreement and serious response
Carney also warned that this change was not limited to business agreements only. He said, ‘There can be no return in the relationship now.’ His statement shows that the trust and cooperation between Canada and America after Trump’s decision is now over. Carney says that the tariff that the US has imposed is not just a business issue, but an attack on deep relations between the two countries. & Nbsp;
Canada’s strategy & nbsp;
However, Carney clarified that Canada would compete with these tariffs. He said, ‘We will adopt effective business measures to deal with these tariffs, which will have more effect on America and Canada will be less.’ & nbsp; This means that Canada will oppose America’s move with its full force. Carney also said that his strategy will work strongly in matters related to security, trade and economy.
New direction of relationship with Trump
Mark Carney also said that he has approached the White House to talk to Trump, but before any business conversation he wants Trump to show ‘respect’ towards Canada. His message was clear that there would be no compromise on Canada’s sovereignty. & Nbsp;
What will change this new attitude?
This can be a big step for Canada, as it is now intended to take old relationships with America in a new direction. However, it will remain to be seen whether the Trump administration will understand this change and whether a new kind of partnership between the two countries will begin in the future.
The question here is whether this change in the relations between the US and Canada will do long -term damage or it will become a symbol of a new beginning for the two countries. This situation will be more clear in the coming days, but at the moment it is certain that the old relationships have now been talked about.
