Mark Carney edges closer to European Union as Canada betrays US relationship

Prime Minister Mark Carney has welcomed an invitation for Canada to join the European Union and turn its back on the US. Carney’s address to the European Parliament comes as Canada is locked in an ongoing trade war with the US and President Donald Trump. The ongoing trade war between Canada and the US has seen both nations hike tariffs on one another, with no agreement in sight. Carney concluded his speech by asserting that a partnership between the EU and Canada can make both “stronger”.
