Carney has not responded directly to the latest broadside by the US president. It was left to Dominic Leblanc, the minister of US-Canada Trade, to answer with a social media post late Saturday that reiterated the prime minister’s position that Canada will carry on and be ready whenever the US wants to resume trade negotiations.
Carney’s address in Malaysia early Sunday was part pitch for freer trade with the ASEAN block of nations and part veiled reference to the worsening relations with the United States.
“We have all been reminded of the importance of reliable partners — who honour their commitments, who are there in tough times, and who engage collaboratively to fix something that isn’t working,” Carney told the leaders of the 11 nations gathered around the table in the Malaysian capital.
“Canada is such a partner, a dependable partner, and I have come to Kuala Lumpur to say clearly that we want to play a bigger role in this region.”
