Why is Carney not paying attention to the stalled trade talks with Trump?
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney appears unfazed by the stalled trade talks with U.S. President Donald Trump. Speaking at the G-20 Summit in Johannesburg, Carney dismissed the issue as "just a detail," signaling that Washington is no longer his sole priority.The talks were suspended after an Ontario ad used Ronald Reagan's 1987 anti-tariff speech, angering Trump. Despite threats of new tariffs, no additional duties have yet been imposed.As tensions rise, Carney is accelerating efforts to diversify Canada's trade partners, announcing new agreements with India and the UAE. Critics, however, warn that overlooking the U.S., which buys 75% of Canada's exports, could put the country's economy at risk.
