Episode Details

Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney is standing firm, saying Canada won’t return to U.S. trade talks unless America treats Canada as an equal partner—not a subordinate. After walking away from negotiations over last-minute, economically damaging U.S. demands that threatened Canadian sovereignty and French language rights, Carney rejected a proposed auto deal that would have hurt Canada’s industry long-term. As Trump threatens 50% tariffs on Canadian steel and auto parts starting January 1, Canadian officials—including Ontario’s Doug Ford—are eyeing retaliatory moves like taxing U.S. electricity imports. Meanwhile, U.S. Vice President JD Vance continues to push back, calling Canada ungrateful and one of the worst trade partners, even as he insists talks are still happening.
