The US president and the new Canadian prime minister are meeting for the first time at the White House on Tuesday, May 6. The diplomatic encounter promises to be intense against a backdrop of disagreements and high tensions between the two neighbors. The Canadian prime minister, Mark Carney, owed his unexpected victory on April 28 to a specific strategy: facing the expansionist ambitions and trade war initiated by the US president, the former banker and senior official positioned himself as the best defense against Donald Trump, asserting his capability to stand up to him.
In his victory speech, Carney reaffirmed the policy he intended to pursue: building a “strong Canada” facing the imperialist ambitions of the American president. “Who’s ready to stand up for Canada with me?” he asked the crowd, before bluntly summarizing the state of relations, which had been cordial until then, between the two neighbors. “Our old relationship with the United States (…) is over. (…) America wants our land, our resources, our water, our country. (…) President Trump is trying to break us so that America can own us. That will never, that will never ever happen,” he warned.
