Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is spearheading an ambitious global trade diversification strategy to reduce Canada’s economic dependence on the United States, navigating a complex international landscape marked by geopolitical uncertainty and shifting diplomatic relationships. Carney’s approach involves forging new trade partnerships, particularly with China and other nations previously overlooked by Canadian diplomacy, while seeking to position Canada as a bridge between the European Union and Pacific Rim countries. Despite the challenges, Canada remains heavily reliant on U.S. trade, with approximately 70% of its exports currently directed to the United States. The prime minister has set an aggressive goal of doubling non-U.S. exports over the next decade, with a strategic focus on countries like China, India, and nations in the Middle East and Southeast Asia. Carney’s diplomatic efforts reflect a pragmatic response to the unpredictable trade policies of the United States, aiming to create more resilient and diversified international economic relationships that can provide Canada with greater economic flexibility and strategic autonomy.

Canada the EU and other aligned countries need to get together and begin the hard road of replacing AWS and Azure. Hit America’s dominance in compute

Finally, someone who actually has vision and is not just trying to wish everything back to the way it was before. The way it was before was what led to everything happening now. The only thing that will work for the West is to develop a completely new approach that is in better alignment with the conditions they face, which I had not seen these countries do so far.

Hes not wrong right now, and I hate to admit it as an American. DT is completely tanking the US Reputation right now because he thinks they will all come crawling back to do things his way.
Hes already been proven wrong on that with the initial Tarrifs, and continues to be. Hes just too old and senile right now to admit hes doing anything wrong.
