Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney fired back at U.S. officials for mocking Canada’s military and criticized Washington’s approach to trade tensions. Carney said Canada’s priority is to build at home, diversify abroad and protect Canadian workers, families and businesses. He argued that a mutually beneficial trade deal with the United States remains possible if it respects Canadian sovereignty. But Carney delivered a pointed message, saying Washington should “stop doing memes, stop throwing shade” and start taking negotiations seriously. His remarks underscore growing friction between Ottawa and Washington over tariffs and trade.

00:00Yeah, thank you.
00:02I'm going to try to face out.
00:04D for victory.
00:05Hello everyone, good morning everyone.
00:08First of all, I would like to congratulate Daniel Gaubey,
00:14Tenville Chanoaz and Braden Cayley for the victory
00:17in the circonscription, in the partial elections,
00:21in the circonscription of Shkumi, Le Fiore,
00:25Beaches, East York and North Vancouver, Capellano.
00:28And, also, I would like to thank the other candidates
00:32who were presented in the parties,
00:36and all the members of all teams,
00:41who worked hard during this time.
00:47I believe that the message is clear.
00:49The voters have given a vote of confidence
00:54in the government plan.
00:56We accept it with humility and determination.
01:03The Canadians and Canadians are brave.
01:06We buy Canada.
01:09We visit Canada.
01:12We reinforce the force here, at home.
01:16We have to change our relations international relations
01:20to the foreign countries.
01:22And this plan,
01:23it was the plan of the government
01:26since the beginning of this plan.
01:28And this is how we work.
01:31We have to change our jobs here in Canada.
01:33We pay four times our profits to the United States.
01:36We pay five times our profits from the United States.
01:41We pay four times our profits to the United States.
02:06We have a lot of work to do, but now the government team is reinforced, Canadians are united, and we
02:17are going to work right now.
02:18Just in English, if I may.
02:20First off, I want to congratulate the candidates.
02:23Daniel Gobet, Tanvir Shanoaz, Braden Cayley, for their victories in these by-elections, in the circumscriptions, in the writings of
02:36Shkudumi Lefort, Beaches East York, and North Van Cap Milano.
02:44All very important.
02:46I want to also sincerely thank all the candidates who put themselves forward, their teams, their volunteers, for all the
02:54hard work over the course of the summer, over the course of this campaign, for their dedication to our democracy.
03:01The message from Canadians, I think, is clear.
03:05They've given their support, more than 50% in each of these writings, to the government's plan.
03:11And I think that's because Canadians are united and Canadians are ready.
03:14We've been buying Canadian, we've been visiting Canada, we've been reinforcing our strength here at home, and diversifying our partnerships
03:22abroad.
03:22That's been the plan of this government since the start.
03:25We've been putting it in place.
03:27It's working.
03:28Still early days, but it's working.
03:30We're growing jobs at four times the rate of the United States.
03:32We have the highest level of foreign direct investment in this country in two destinies.
03:37Congratulations on the World Cup, the Spanish interlude there.
03:44We have a rate of, as I say, foreign investment at that level.
03:52Our exports are on track outside of the United States to double.
03:56They've been growing strongly.
03:58And our rate of growth in the most recent quarter is the strongest in the G7.
04:02But early days, Canadians united, reinforcing our plan. We're going to keep going. And I look forward to your pressures.
04:08How much have you gained in the G7, thanks to Donald Trump?
04:12No, no.
04:14Grâce au plan.
04:15Grâce, premièrement, au candidat.
04:17Nous avons un candidat exceptionnel avec M. Goybey.
04:21Un fermier, un entrepreneur, une garde de terrain.
04:27Il connaît bien la circonscription et le secteur agroalimentaire.
04:34Alors, premièrement, à cause de notre candidat exceptionnel et j'ai hâte de travailler avec lui.
04:40Premièrement. Deuxièmement.
04:42Je crois que c'est à cause… j'étais là pendant la campagne.
04:47Et c'est à cause de… c'est pas des questions de Donald Trump.
04:50C'est la question… qu'est-ce qu'on fait maintenant ici au Canada afin de bâtir un Québec fort,
04:55bâtir un Canada fort?
04:56Oui, c'est important de protéger et promouvoir la langue française.
05:01Protéger et promouvoir la culture québécoise.
05:04Protéger et promouvoir la gestion de l'offre, par exemple.
05:08Oui, c'est important.
05:09Mais ce sont des valeurs… des valeurs canadiens, des valeurs québécois.
05:13Et oui, il y a des menaces maintenant de M. Trump.
05:18Mais je crois que c'est un message positif pour le Canada et pour le plan de gouvernement.
05:22On saturday, on saturday, you said…
05:24On saturday, you said that the Americans were attempting to limit Canada's ability to do trade deals.
05:30And that was a part of the negotiation.
05:31Yeah.
05:31On friday, they were doing that test.
05:33Can you give us the specifics on what products or any details?
05:37It was a broader…
05:38Well, once you introduce on a broad range of products in manufacturing sectors,
05:45then once you carve out those areas and potentially have those limitations,
05:50limitations that weren't well explained, limitations that were introduced late in the negotiations,
05:55once you have those, as you can appreciate with virtually any country
06:00that we either have a free trade deal with or we are negotiating with,
06:04think of the ASEAN countries, think of India, many others, the Philippines, Thailand, Mercosur.
06:10They all have manufacturing sectors.
06:12They all would be affected by these measures.
06:15And plus, Canada is a sovereign state.
06:17We will strike free trade deals with the countries we wish to strike free trade deals.
06:21Prime Minister, what do you make of U.S. cabinet secretaries insulting the Canadian military?
06:27It's beneath their office.
06:29Sir, are you going to meet your party in the next election?
06:30American officials have been mocking Canada's military, its cadets.
06:34You had Trump rename Lake Ontario.
06:37And also some officials saying that the U.S. is not actually at war with Canada.
06:42The U.S. is not actually at war with Canada.
06:44What do you make of all this?
06:45And what is your message to the U.S. right now?
06:47What needs to happen next?
06:48Our message, first off, has always been, our plan has always been standing up for Canada,
06:54first and foremost here at home, building Canada at home, diversifying abroad.
06:58Everyone in the world wants to do more with Canada.
07:01And we're doing that in a way that's in the best interest of Canadian workers,
07:04Canadian families, Canadian businesses.
07:06That's first.
07:08There's a positive opportunity that has always existed with the United States
07:13for a mutually beneficial trade deal that respects Canadian sovereignty,
07:18which respect the rights of the French language and the Canadian culture.
07:27But it must have those characteristics.
07:31And when the Americans stop doing memes,
07:35stop throwing shade, stop trying to be tough,
07:38and start being serious about having those discussions,
07:41we can have those discussions.
07:43Look, it's not constructive, but that's their democracy.
07:48Are you going to lead your party into the next election?
07:50I just led the party into two by-elections,
07:53and I'm very pleased that we won all three.
07:57I'm pleased to have a remarkable caucus.
08:01You know, I view my role, as my colleagues do, is to do our job.
08:07We're sent to Ottawa for a reason.
08:09We're sent here at a critical time.
08:13I'm blessed by having three great colleagues who are going to be coming in
08:17from very different backgrounds, very different ridings.
08:20And we're going to stand up for Canada.
08:22We're going to build this country.
08:23We're going to help unite this country, and we're going to build it for all.
08:26And I'm going to focus on that.
08:28And that's my concern.
08:30Did Doug Ford effectively settle the deal?
08:34Sorry, did Doug Ford have any role in these negotiations?
08:38In killing these negotiations, does Doug Ford have any role in that?
08:40No.
08:41Look, the decisions...
08:42Sorry, let me frame.
08:45The premiers play a very important role in this process.
08:48Labour plays an important role in this process.
08:51All stakeholders play a role in this process.
08:53We consult with the premiers, take into account their views, work with them, both in terms of supporting Canadians,
09:00whatever trade action the US or others take, and whatever potential deals are there.
09:06The decisions on trade are the decisions of the Government of Canada.
09:11I'm the Prime Minister.
09:13Ultimately, I am responsible with the Cabinet for those decisions.
09:16We take those decisions in the round.
09:19We took those decisions.
09:20I enumerated.
09:21I enumerated on Saturday and can repeat.
09:26And the chief negotiator gave interviews.
09:30Monsieur LeBlanc.
09:30Others have given interviews.
09:31Those of us who are at the table or next to the table, if you will.
09:35People know exactly why an accumulation of issues, each of them serious enough.
09:42Okay?
09:43The issues with respect to language and culture, enough to not have a deal.
09:48The issues Mr. Gray just asked about with respect to restrictions on future trade deals.
09:53Restrictions on our sovereignty, enough not to have a deal.
09:57Issues with respect to locking in an uncompetitive trade arrangement in our key industries.
10:06Automobiles being one of them.
10:07Enough to not have a trade deal.
10:10And then the general attitude, and I'll leave you with this.
10:12Which I think this is a very important point.
10:15is that the attitude of the United States in these discussions, and subsequently, has been one that the core Canadian
10:30industries either would be subsidiaries effectively of the United States industries, or would put in place terms where those industries
10:40would be gradually wound down in Canada and wiped out.
10:44Of course we're not going to accept those terms.
10:46And by the way, it's misguided.
10:48The United States auto industry is made stronger by the Canadian and the Mexican auto industries.
10:55And at a time of big, big change in auto, it's important that we work together.
10:59That's why I say, yes, there is a mutually beneficial deal.
11:03There were elements of that mutually beneficial deal that we were moving towards, which is why we were still at
11:08the table.
11:08But we never viewed that we had that deal.
11:12And it diverged towards the end.
11:15At some point, maybe it'll converge again.
11:17But last point, and I think, if I may, what's a clear message from last night in three very different
11:24ridings across this great diverse country is that Canadians are behind the plan of the government, which is first and
11:31foremost about building strong at home, diversifying with reliable partners, building Canada strong for all.
11:38That's first and foremost. That's what I'm going to go back in there and work on today.
11:43And that's what my colleagues and my new colleagues are going to focus on.
11:45And I think it's important that Americans are doing a good job.
11:46That's what Americans are doing there because Americans are doing a good job.
11:49They're doing a good job.
11:50They're doing a good job.
