Canada's new Prime Minister Mark Carney is about to meet with US President Donald Trump

On May 7, 2025, according to the Crypto King's official account, before the meeting, Trump expressed both welcome and warnings on social media, and his words were confusing, which aroused speculation from the outside world.

Trump said on the "Truth Social" platform that he would roll out the red carpet to welcome Carney, but would also raise economic concerns, believing that there was a huge financial imbalance in the US-Canada relationship. He questioned: "Why does the United States provide Canada with $200 billion in subsidies every year in addition to providing free military protection?" He even claimed that the United States does not need Canadian cars, energy or wood. Despite this, Canada is still one of the largest trading partners of the United States, especially in the automotive and energy sectors.

Previously, Trump had hinted that Canada might become the 51st state of the United States, which triggered a strong reaction in Canada. Carney responded clearly: "Canada will never be sold." At the beginning of this year, Trump imposed a 25% tariff on Canadian imports (10% for energy products), and the economic pressure on the two countries increased sharply. Canada subsequently imposed retaliatory tariffs on US goods.

After taking office, Prime Minister Carney made it clear that he would defend Canada's sovereignty and economic interests, and called for a diversified economic strategy to reduce dependence on the United States. Although the two leaders had different attitudes during this meeting, they both expressed their willingness to ease tensions through constructive dialogue.

What kind of changes will this US-Canada game under the "red carpet" bring to the future relationship between the two countries? It is worth continuing to pay attention!
