CBC Admits Trump Was Right as Carney's Trade Strategy Collapses
Is Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Canada-U.S. trade strategy collapsing? Pierre Poilievre exposes the PM for caving to Donald Trump’s trade demands, and even mainstream media is admitting the Liberal strategy has failed. While the U.S. issues a final ultimatum threatening devastating 50% tariffs on Canada before the August 19 deadline, Mark Carney is under fire for vacationing in Italy instead of negotiating. In this episode of Behind the Headlines, Cody and Ian break down U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer’s direct warning to Ottawa, the leaked trade concessions on Canadian dairy and alcohol, and why Pierre Poilievre is stepping up to demand an immediate end to Liberal concessions. Plus, we analyze the shocking CBC panel segment where reporters finally admitted Donald Trump’s strategy worked.
