The relationship between the US and Canada has shifted to one of "frenemies."

Canadian Prime Minister declares that the relationship between the US and Canada has shifted to one of "frenemies."

Mark Carney stated, "The traditional relationship we once had with the United States has come to an end. Our most significant challenge as a nation is now at hand.

In the weeks, months, and years to come, we must fundamentally rethink our economy. Our priority will be to ensure Canada thrives in an increasingly different world." "The established partnership with the United States, rooted in economic integration and robust security cooperation, is over. While the future actions of the United States remain uncertain, one thing is clear: as Canadians, we possess agency.

We hold the power. We are the masters of our own domain; nous sommes chez nous." "We are in control of our own destiny. We can achieve far more than any foreign government, including the United States, could ever take away from us.

The key to navigating this crisis lies in strengthening ourselves right here at home. This will require hard work and unwavering determination from our government, businesses, workers, and all Canadians." "We must significantly decrease our dependence on the United States and pivot our trade relationships to new partners. We will need to accomplish what was once considered impossible at a pace not seen in generations." "By doing so, we can enhance our productivity and become more competitive.

We will dismantle internal trade barriers and cultivate a stronger, more resilient economy. This is my primary focus as your Prime Minister."
