Carney warned about economic coercion. Now Trump is testing the Canadian prime minister

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney previously cautioned that middle powers like Canada must resist economic coercion. This stance is currently being tested by President Donald Trump amidst a deepening trade war. For Carney, this confrontation represents the most significant trial of his argument that middle powers must withstand economic pressure from great powers, including the United States and China, even if such resistance results in a cost to the nation's economy.
