Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney urged changes to Canada's economic ties with the US in a video address, stating that what was once a strength has become a weakness due to issues like inequality and unequal trade practices between the two nations. He emphasized the need for more balanced relations and greater Canadian autonomy in economic decision-making. The comments come as Canada seeks to diversify its trade relationships and reduce its dependence on the US market. Carney's remarks are seen as a call to action for his government to re-examine its economic ties with its largest trading partner.
