Canadian Next Prime Minister promises to win a trade war with Trump

BBC News, Ottawa
Mark Carney won in the race to succeed Justin TRUDEAUA as the next Canadian prime minister, with a vow to win a trade war against US President Donald Trump.
The former governor of Canada and the Central Bank in the UK beat three rivals in the Liberal Leadership Competition in the landslide.
In most of his speech about victory, Carney, 59, attacked Trump, who imposed Tarife Canada and said he wanted to make the country 51. “Americans shouldn’t go wrong,” he said. “In the store, such as in hockey, Canada will win.”
Carney is expected to be sworn in because the Prime Minister will lead liberals in the next general elections in the coming days, which is expected to be invited in the coming weeks.
Carney, who is now the Prime Minister-Dizajn, has never served in the chosen function.
The leadership race began in January after Trudeau resigned after almost a decade in power. He faced inner pressure to give up deep unpopularity with voters, who were frustrated by the housing crisis and the growing cost of living.
Carney won the first ballot on Sunday night, taking 85.9% of the vote to beat his nearest rival, former Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland.
Loud fans broke out while the results were announced a crowd of about 1,600 party believers in Ottawa, the capital of Canada.
The party announced that more than 150,000 people had thrown out the ballots.
Carney, who will run a minority government in Parliament, could either call the general election himself or could force one with a vote of distrust later this month.
Liberals withdrew conservatives, led by Pierre Poilievre, for more than 20 points earlier this year.
But they narrowed the gap since the Trump’s war started and are now statistically related to official opposition, according to some polls.
Much of Carney’s speech focused on Trump’s “Unjustified Tariff” in Canada, the largest American trade partner.
“The attacks of Canadian workers, families and businesses,” he said, causing loud crowds from the crowd. “We can’t let him succeed.”
He said his government would keep the tariffs on American imports “until Americans show us respect.”
“I know these are dark days,” Carney said. “The dark days brought by a country where we can no longer believe.
“We prevail the shock, but let’s not forget the lessons: we have to look out for ourselves and we have to look out for each other. We must get closer in the difficult days ahead.”
Carney also committed to “securing our boundaries”, which was a key demand of Trump in their tariff state.
The US president even mentioned Carney’s attacks on his main opponent, a conservative leader of Poilievre.
“The Pierre Poilievra plan will leave us divided and ready to conquer,” Carney said.
“Because the person who worships on the altar of Donald Trump will kneel in front of him and not stand toward him.”
Immediately before Carney went on stage, Trudeau gave an emotional farewell speech at the same event.
He warned that Canada faces an “existential challenge” from the US under Trump.
Conservatives had to turn politically facing Trudeau’s resignation and target Carney as “just like Justin”, while accusing liberals of “cunning” plan for winning a fourth term by simple replacement of their leader.
The Poilievre Party also accused Carney of lying about his role in moving the investment company Brookfield Asset Management, from Toronto to New York. Carney says a formal decision to relocate the company was made after leaving the Committee.
Federal Minister of Public Security David McGuinty, who supported Carney, told the BBC that he “embodied a kind of quiet determination, but firmly determined and competence to deal with some of these great questions.”
“I’m really, really excited about what’s coming. And honest, it’s time for the election.”
What are Carney’s key policies?
The former central banker ran on a wide centralic agenda, away from Trudeau, who moved the liberal to the left.
Among the key promises of the new liberal leader is to move forward to major energy projects such as pipelines, which have faced political screens in recent years.
He promised great investments in residential and pure energy projects, and for the liberalization of the trade within Canada, where obstacles remain between the provinces and diversify the trade away from the US.
During the guidance race, Carney promised to limit the size of the Federal Government, which spread 40% in Trudeau and to carry out a program review.
