Retaliation being considered if no deal reached by Trump's tariff deadline, Carney says

Prime Minister Mark Carney says retaliatory measures are being considered if his government can't reach a deal with U.S. President Donald Trump before his new tariffs take effect.

"Everything is on the table depending on the outcome of the negotiations," Carney told reporters following a meeting with the 13 premiers in Charlottetown on Thursday.

Their face-to-face follows a threat from the White House to slap 50 per cent tariffs on billions of dollars' worth of Canadian imports come Aug. 19.

"If these tariffs or other measures come into force there's a full range of things that we can do," said Carney.

The prime minister wouldn't say what reprisals are in his back pocket, calling it "counterproductive" to talk retaliation with negotiations underway.

"But it's important to know what your options are," he said

Sometimes, the enemy of my enemy, is also my enemy.
Islam sanitizes oppression. Islam rebrands cruelty as culture, and expects applause from Liberal fools for their Islamic progressivism.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists

I don't know why Carney thinks he can go tit for tat with Trump on this?  The brother of that crack smoking mayor...Ford is even worse.

CBC invited a Canadian winery owner on to trash Trump and he comes back with "Trump's 50% tariffs are still less than EVERY OTHER province in CANADA puts on us."

I Demand You Stop Meming!

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney went after U.S. officials on Monday amid trade tensions between the two countries, suggesting “the Americans stop doing memes.”
“When the Americans stop doing memes, stop throwing shade, stop trying to be tough and start being serious about having those discussions, we can have those discussions,” Carney told reporters, discussing a possible trade deal.
