Threats are coming, "Canada won't have an easy time"!
On January 23, Bloomberg reported: "Carney's visit to China signed a Sino-Canadian trade agreement, stating that China is a more predictable trading partner, and Canada has also seen the resumption of canola and beef exports to China. U.S. Commerce Secretary Rutenberg was furious, calling the move 'political noise' and threatening to renegotiate under the USMCA to pressure Canada. He also used the $30 trillion U.S.-Canada economic relationship as leverage. The Canadian finance minister responded that all G7 countries have strategies toward China, and Canada insists on trade diversification. Mexican President expressed willingness to maintain the USMCA and attempt to mediate the Canada-U.S. conflict."
[Sagacious] American hegemony bullying, Canada ultimately refuses to be the 51st state! The U.S. once again raises the stick of bullying against its allies. Rutenberg raged at Carney's visit to China, used the $30 trillion economic ties as leverage, threatened to renegotiate the trade agreement, and displayed a face of "prosperity for those who follow me, destruction for those who oppose me." It forgot the original intention of the U.S.-Canada alliance after WWII was mutual benefit, now treating allies as vassals and interfering with their trade diversification. Carney is not a soft target; while resuming agricultural exports to China, he also said "nostalgia is not a strategy." The Canadian finance minister directly confronted it. Once Britain colonized Canada, now the U.S. wants to turn it into the 51st state. History is so similar, but the times have changed. The coercion of American hegemony cannot stop countries from pursuing autonomy!
