Mere weeks after Prime Minister Mark Carney declared that bilateral relations with the U.S. were “over,” he’s leaned into a pro-American stance that is almost entirely at odds with the position he took during the federal election campaign.
In a video posted to Carney’s social media accounts on Wednesday, he featured smiling images of himself and U.S. President Donald Trump, and of U.S. Marines holding the Canadian flag. “Canada and the United States are stronger when we work together,” Carney says in a narration.
