Prime Minister Mark Carney has rejected claims by senior members of the Trump administration that Canada's government deliberately sabotaged trade talks with the U.S. In the final moments. Carney addressed the issue during an unrelated news conference in Thunder Bay, where he emphasized that the allegations were unfounded. The Trump administration had previously suggested that Canada's position was driven by political motives rather than economic interests. Carney countered that such claims were misleading and did not reflect the true nature of the negotiations. The dispute highlights ongoing tensions between Canada and the U.S. Over trade policies, with both sides accusing each other of obstructing progress. Carney's remarks come amid broader discussions about the future of North American trade agreements.
