Canada’s unelected Prime Minister Mark Carney has walked back his incendiary remarks declaring an end to the historic Canada-U.S. alliance—now hailing America as “our most important security ally.”
Carney, a former central banker parachuted into power by globalist elites without ever facing the Canadian electorate, made headlines just days ago for a blistering anti-American tirade.
At a press conference in Ottawa, the newly installed leftist leader had declared the “old relationship” with the United States to be “over,” lashing out at President Trump’s bold move to impose permanent 25% tariffs on Canadian auto exports—an America First policy aimed at protecting American workers and industries from foreign undercutting.
Carney: Our biggest challenge as a country is becoming the most urgent. Over the coming weeks, months, and years, we must fundamentally reimagine our economy. We will need to ensure that Canada can succeed in a drastically different world.
The old relationship we had with the United States—based on deepening integration of our economies and tight security and military cooperation—is over.
What exactly the United States does next is unclear. But what is clear is that we, as Canadians, have agency. We have power. We are masters in our own home.
We can control our destiny. We can give ourselves much more than any foreign government, including the United States, can ever take away. We can deal with this crisis best by building our strength right here at home.
It will take hard work. It will take steady focus and determination—from governments, from businesses, from labor, from Canadians. We will need to dramatically reduce our reliance on the United States.
We will need to pivot our trade relationships elsewhere, and we will need to do things previously thought impossible, at speeds we haven’t seen in generations.
But we can make ourselves more productive—and therefore more competitive. We can break down internal trade barriers. We can build a stronger and more resilient economy. That’s what I’m squarely focused on as your Prime Minister.

When confronted today by a reporter asking whether the United States was still considered an ally, Carney’s tone shifted dramatically:
“The US is absolutely our ally. It’s our ally in security and defense partnerships. It’s our most important security ally,” Carney.
