Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney stated that his country does not intend to conclude a trade agreement with China, in the context of Trump's threats directed towards Canada.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced on Sunday that Canada has no intention of pursuing a free trade agreement with China, in the context of U.S. President Donald Trump's threats to impose 100% tariffs on goods imported from Canada if it engages in commercial collaboration with Beijing. Carney explained that the recent agreement with China is limited to reducing tariffs on a few sectors previously affected by taxes. In 2024, Canada imposed 100% tariffs on electric vehicles from China and 25% on oil and aluminum, and China responded with similar tariffs on Canadian products.

Carney emphasized that he will not seek trade agreements with non-market economies without prior notice, in accordance with commitments from the free trade agreement with the U.S. and Mexico. Additionally, he highlighted the need for medium-sized countries to collaborate to counteract the influence of the United States under Trump's leadership. This was a reaction to Trump's aggressive rhetoric, which suggested that Canada could become a "dumping ground" for Chinese products intended for the U.S.
