Donald Trump is trying to get Americans to believe that this is all Canada‘s fault, with the trade negotiations. For the most part he has his congressional representatives behind him. With the midterms coming up in two months now, Trump is like the chief lemming leading all his lemmings off an electoral cliff.
Meanwhile, Mark Carney is acting like a duck, getting all his ducks in a row and in order. He is holding Canada‘s first investment summit on the 14th and 15th of September. Investors from all over the world will be gathering in Toronto and meeting with Canadian CEOs and public representatives. The goal of this first ever Canada Summit is to get $1 trillion of investment in Canada in the next few years.
The very next day, Mark Carney heads to Europe, where he will be giving a speech to the European Parliament, on 17 September. With his business relationships and background, he will be meeting with various European leaders and parliamentarians. He will be doing so with the purpose of getting trade and investment opportunities for Canada.. Both Canada and the EU have a common, you can almost say enemy, with that being Donald Trump.
So while Donald Trump is acting like Nero, and fiddling while his country burns, Mark Carney is divesting away from America, for greener pastures.
Canada Strong elbows up.
