[Canadian Prime Minister Mobilizes the Nation to "Go Out" to Respond to the Canada-U.S. Trade War] On September 9, after the Canadian government's countermeasures against the U.S. tariffs officially came into effect in the early morning of the 8th, Canadian Prime Minister Carney delivered a national video speech to mobilize the nation to unite to respond to the Canada-U.S. trade war. Using ice hockey as an analogy, Carney said: "Every time we choose to buy Canadian goods and travel within Canada, we are sending a signal - in this country, no one is in the stands (watching), and 40 million Canadians are all on the ice (fighting)." Carney said the most fundamental problem at present is that the United States "wants us to be more dependent on them, not more independent. In too many areas, they pursue economic partnerships of dependence rather than equality." Carney said Canada will pay something to reduce its dependence on the United States, but any action has a cost, "which is nothing compared to the cost of stagnation." Carney reiterated that the United States made unreasonable demands at the last moment of the negotiations that harmed Canada's sovereignty and core industrial interests. Therefore, Canada chose to abandon the agreement and implement countermeasures. Trade negotiations between Canada and the United States broke down in late August, and the United States imposed 50% tariffs on $20 billion worth of Canadian goods. On September 8, Canada began to impose equal counter-tariffs on U.S. imports such as steel, dairy products, agricultural equipment, pulp, and electronic products. According to Canadian media reports, there are currently no arrangements for further negotiations between the two parties. (Xinhua News Agency)
