OTTAWA—Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said officials in Ottawa and Washington are engaged in intensive negotiations on a new bilateral economic-and-security deal, and it’s neither in President Trump’s or his interest to let talks drag on through the fall.

“We’ve got more that we need to do before we’re satisfied that we have a partnership that is in Canada’s interest,” Carney said in a broadcast interview Tuesday with the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. “We’ve made a lot of progress.”


Carney’s Liberal government delivered its ceremonial Speech from the Throne, which marks the opening of Parliament after last month’s election. The speech, read by King Charles III, focused on Canada’s sovereignty and the need for an ambitious economic agenda as the country must deal with a protectionist U.S. Trump has imposed hefty 25% tariffs on Canadian steel, aluminum, assembled vehicles and goods that aren’t compliant with the existing U.S.-Mexico-Canada trade pact. Canada has responded with 25% retaliatory tariffs on about $43 billion of U.S. imports, but has since provided exemptions to the automotive and manufacturing sectors to give them time to find new non-U.S. suppliers.

Carney said it’s his goal for the U.S. and Canada to agree on a new bilateral pact in the coming months that removes the hefty tariffs. “I don’t think it’s in either of our nation’s interests for it to drag out,” Carney said.

So when this deal is finalized, better, mutual agreements will rule the day.
Canada seems to be keen on joining the Golden Dome defense project. Why? Cause it is going to be highly effective and work well.
It is actually in our mutual interest as air is shared across the borders, and nuclear fallout is guaranteed to affect both countries if ever a nuke is detonated over either country. Canadian arctic could be challenged by Russia or China, shipping across the top of Canada, resources, which is also why the US has concerns over Greenland.

I never hear a peep coming from Central or South America about nuclear war worries. But I wonder if Mexico is also interested in Golden Dome. They probably think they are never going to be targeted. And quietly rely on US protection.

Much of the world is still engaged in senseless warmongering.
Evil governments focussing on fighting and insults .
End times in the making.

We should focus on people getting off the streets.
We should spend all the money that is being spend on war hardware on taking care of the poor, sick and down and out and on spreading the gospel.

Instead we pay millions on war hardware and big fat wages and pensions for high headed politicians.
