Washington correspondent Tracy Moran on the growing sense that Carney doesn't actually want trade peace
Show full content
The growing sense about Prime Minister Mark Carney in Washington, D.C., is that maybe he doesn’t actually want trade peace, Tracy Moran, National Post correspondent in the U.S. capital, tells Brian Lilley. The prime minister’s “waiting game” tactic is out of runway: talks have dried up and there’s not enough time now to head off the July 1 deadline when U.S. President Donald Trump gets to revise, or worse, declare an end to the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement. Troublingly, Carney has managed to aggravate the Trump camp with continuous provocations, and the American public is souring on Canada. Meanwhile, she says, the White House is preparing tariffs that, this time, could be far more punishing than previous ones — with no more carve outs for CUSMA goods. (Recorded May 14, 2026.) Read More

The world is nostalgic for a respected Britain, is waiting for a mature Canada, and India is surging. Instead of Britain standing outside the door of Europe and Canada and India shivering in the shadow of America or China, and the Anzacs alone at the end of the earth, we should collaborate, for our collective good and for the stability in the world. The United Kingdom is floundering through its seventh consecutive failed government and is attempting to redefine its secession from the European Union by creeping backwards toward it, having almost severed its alliance with the United States by equivocating between that country and Iran, the world‘s greatest state sponsor of terrorism in the current conflict. At the same time, Prime Minister Mark Carney has assigned Canada and himself the role of rounding up disgruntled, so-called middle powers that harbour grievances against the United States, in particular, and getting them all to stand upon each other’s shoulders so that they will be taken more seriously in the chancelleries of the world. Both the U.K. and Canada have been thrust into these improbable vocations by prolonged mismanagement of their own foreign relations and national interests. Read More
