Canada’s Mark Carney to Visit Trump and Begin Tariff Negotiations

Canada’s Prime Minister said Friday that he would travel next week to meet with President Trump for a high -risk meeting between the two leaders of countries whose time has collapsed in the middle of a commercial war and Trump’s threats with the sovereignty of Canada.

Mr. Carney also announced that King Charles III would visit Canada at the end of this month, his first trip to the country from the coronation of Charles two years ago. Analysts consider that the news of the trip, which was also announced by Buckingham Palace, is a clear reprimand to call Mr. Trump to turn Canada in state 51 because Charles is also the official head of state of Canada.

Carney, the former leader of the central banks of England and Canada, directed the Liberal Party to Victory in the National Elections on Monday, in what deals with Mr. Trump, his tariffs on Canadian exports and his repeated talk of making Canada another state was in the minds of voters.

The Belic Campaign of the Trump Administration against Canada, said Carney, has made it clear that Canada needs to negotiate new agreements with the United States around a variety of issues, including economic and security alliances.

“Our old relationship, based on the increase in constant integration, has ended,” Carney told journalists at Ottawa in his first press conference after the elections. “The questions are now how our nations cooperate in the future and where we will continue in Canada.”

Mr. Carney said that he had asked Charles to pronounce a speech on May 27 to open a new session of the Canadian Parliament that “highlights the Soveranyntytty of Canada as a nation.” When a new congender of Parliament, the opening speech, which presents the legislative agenda of the ruling parties, is normally the general reading general, the king’s representative in Canada.

“This is a historical honor that coincides with the weight of our times,” said Carney. Queen Elizabeth, who gave the speech in 1977, was the last English monarch to do so.

As he did through the campaign, Carney said that the idea of ​​joining the United States would not be a matter of negotiations with Trump when they meet on Tuesday.

“What the Canadian people have clearly declared, virtually without exception, is: this will never happen,” said Carney, adding that Trump did not mention that Hood State returned among the leaders this week.

He said he intended to discuss a variety or US tariffs against Canadian exports, even in vehicles, car parts, steel and aluminum, which endanger tens or thousands or works. Military spending would also be on the agenda, he said.

“It will be a complex negotiation,” said Carney.

“I am not pretending that these discussions will be easy,” he added. “They won in a straight line. There will be zigs and zags, ups and downs.”

Mr. Carney stressed the consequences of Mr. Trump’s rates was already causing, noticing a General Motors announcement on Friday that said he was reducing production at a truck assembly plant in Oshawa, Ontario.

Unifor, the union that represents workers in the factory, estimates that approximately 2,200 workers will lose their jobs by eliminating one of the changes in the plant.

Stellantis, who closed a plant in Windsor, Ontario, for two weeks, when Trump’s automotive rates get used to last month, inactively to about 3,500 workers, he said on Friday that he was closing the factory for another week.

Carney has responded to Mr. Trump’s encumbrances applying retaliation tariffs on vehicles in the United States.
