In his first overseas trip as Canada’s prime minister333beijo777, Mark Carney went on a whirlwind tour of France and Britain on Monday to showcase Canada’s deep European bonds as President Trump threatens his country’s economy and sovereignty.
Just three days after being sworn into office, Mr. Carney had lunch with President Emmanuel Macron of France in Paris, before heading to London, where he had an audience with King Charles III, Canada’s sovereign, and also met with Prime Minister Keir Starmer of Britain.
“I want to ensure that France and the whole of Europe works enthusiastically with Canada, the most European of non-European countries, determined like you to maintain the most positive possible relations with the United States,” Mr. Carney told the press alongside Mr. Macron at the Élysée Palace in Paris.
Mr. Trump has imposed tariffs on Canadian goods and is threatening even more levies, unleashing pain on the Canadian economy, which is deeply integrated with that of the United States, particularly through a free-trade agreement, together with Mexico. Canada has retaliated with its own tariffs on American goods.
Mr. Sachter-Smith left banana-inhospitable Colorado to study tropical plant and soil science at the University of Hawaii at Manoa, ultimately earning a master’s degree. His global quest has introduced him to bananas that are egg-shaped and orange,66jogo casino a foot long and pale yellow, sausage-stubby and green. They are eaten fried, roasted, boiled and as is, but also grown for pig feed, decoration and weaving fabric. In Papua New Guinea, where Mr. Sachter-Smith has gone on two expeditions hunting for bananas, their names carry many meanings: “young men” (mero mero), “can feed a whole family” (navotavu), “something that was fought over” (bukatawawe), “breast” (nono).
That strategy could serve as a model for future conservation efforts.
But Mr. Trump has also repeatedly declared that Canada should become a U.S. state, and has suggested that he wants to scrap the treaty that demarcates the border between the two nations.
The menacing attitude from Mr. Trump has enraged Canadians, and given Mr. Carney a boost that’s landed him at the helm of his party and his country.
