Canada will deal with Trump 'on our terms', Carney tells BBC
- Mark Carney won a snap election on Monday and is set to become Canada’s prime minister amid tense U.S.-Canada relations in Ottawa.
- The election was driven by anger over U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs and annexation threats, including repeated calls for Canada to become the 51st U.S. State.
- Carney, who managed the Bank of Canada throughout the 2008-2009 financial crisis and served as Governor of the Bank of England from 2013 to 2020, vowed to engage with Trump only if negotiations were conducted on Canada’s conditions.
- Approximately 75% of Canadian exports go to the U.S., and Carney described a "win-win possibility" for trade and security talks respecting Canada’s sovereignty.
- Carney’s government pledges to confront Trump with a united Canada, aiming to rebuild the economy less dependent on the U.S. While awaiting the final election seat count.
