Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Trump threatens Canada with 100% tariffs if Carney concludes deal with China, Carney makes U-turn

By

As reported in the Jihad Watch story Friday morning, “Trump withdraws invitation for Canadian Prime Minister Carney to join his Gaza ‘Board of Peace,’” Carney was dumped because he called for a diplomatic revolt against America to serve his own Marxist, globalist agenda. Carney called upon “like-minded middle powers” to “band together to push their priorities on the world stage,” specifically against the US for “weaponizing” economics. Before he arrived in Davos, Carney was likely emboldened to antagonize Trump by a trip he made to China, where he degraded himself and wrapped up deals with the communist regime. According to a report in the National Post, Carney “identified the key to dealing with the Chinese Communists on a level playing field: give them everything they want, and more.”

Carney was extraordinarily short-sighted not to realize the extent of threat China poses to America, which would prompt Trump to immediately retaliate. “Trump calls Carney ‘governor’ and threatens 100% tariffs,” CTV News, January 24, 2026:

U.S. President Donald Trump revived one of his most pointed insults toward Canada on Saturday, calling Prime Minister Mark Carney “governor” and threatening to slam the country with a 100 per cent tariff over its growing ties with China.

Here’s how government officials reacted to Trump’s comments.

Trump brings back ‘governor’ taunt

The remark revives a familiar taunt Trump previously used against the former prime minister Justin Trudeau and comes as relations between Ottawa and Washington continue to deteriorate….

During Carney’s recent trip to Beijing last week, the two countries announced a trade deal exchanging reduced tariffs and quotas for Chinese electric vehicles in Canada for the lifting of China’s tariffs on Canadian agricultural products….

Carney’s plans are more fully revealed on the Prime Minister of Canada website. An excerpt:

As the world’s second-largest economy, China presents enormous opportunities for Canada in this mission.

To forge a new Canada-China partnership, the Prime Minister, Mark Carney, visited Beijing, the People’s Republic of China, this week. This marked the first visit to China by a Canadian Prime Minister since 2017. In Beijing, Prime Minister Carney met with the President of China, Xi Jinping, the Premier of China, Li Qiang, and the Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress of China, Zhao Leji. After their meeting, Prime Minister Carney and President Xi released a joint statement outlining the pillars of Canada and China’s new strategic partnership.

Central to this new partnership is an agreement to collaborate in energy, clean technology, and climate competitiveness….

Carney was met with an unexpected message from Trump:

Even Ontario Premier Doug Ford, who has vehemently opposed Trump’s tariffs, called for a Chinese EV boycott in Canada after Carney’s deal with Xi Jinping, which requires Canada to drop its 100 percent tariffs on Chinese EVs “and allow an annual import quota of up to 49,000 of the vehicles in exchange for China reducing its canola tariffs.”

Carney backpedaled on a full deal, which will be discussed further on, making his Davos speech a short-lived showdown between Canada and the US, at least for the time being.

The Liberal government’s alliance with China started decades ago. See more HERE for background; Frank Gaffney and I discussed the Canada-China connection. We addressed China’s infiltration of Canada in the public and private sectors (with emphasis on Canada’s 2019 and 2021 Chinese election interference), and Justin Trudeau’s connections with China.

Last year, Joe Rogan expressed his views about Canada vis-a-vis China, during the tenure of former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. In this short clip, Rogan issued a dire warning about the real threat of “communism” in Canada (language warning):

In 2021, Peter Foster, a Cambridge-educated economist and former senior editor of the Financial Post, wrote this in his article “Mark Carney, man of destiny, wants to revolutionize society. It won’t be pleasant”:

“Carney’s plan is to control the global economy by seizing the commanding heights of finance, not by nationalization but by exerting non-democratic pressure to divest from, and stop funding, fossil fuels. The private sector is to become a partner in imposing its own bondage. This will be do-it-yourself totalitarianism.”

Years later, it indeed isn’t pleasant, as Carney’s self-serving agenda threatens to drag Canada down.

Adding to Foster’s warning was former British Prime Minister Liz Truss:

In response to Trump’s 100% tariff threat, Carney tried to deflect the impact on Canada. He warned that “the impact of American tariffs will be on American affordability, not Canadian affordability,” since American companies are the ones who will end up paying the cost for tariffed Canadian goods. Although true, American companies will seek out alternatives to high costs (as is normal in a free market), thus squeezing Canadian companies into further possible layoffs. Canada is already suffering, as the job market reported its worst loss of 2025 this past summer, when unemployment hit 7.1%. According to CTV News, companies cited U.S. tariffs, and now Trump is threatening much worse in the face of Carney’s cozying up to China.

But Carney made a sudden U-turn, saying that Canada has “no intention” of pursuing a free trade agreement with China, and that Canada respects its commitment to the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement, which requires the three countries to “notify the others ahead of time if they want to pursue a free trade agreement with a non-market country — like China.” This attracted the attention of US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who pointed out that Carney’s “about-face” after striking a deal with China was connected to Trump’s threat of 100% tariffs against Canada. Bessent stated:

“The Canadians, a few months ago, joined the U.S. in putting high steel tariffs on China because the Chinese are dumping….The Europeans also have done the same thing. And it looks like that Prime Minister Carney may have done some kind of about-face.”

Canada’s minister responsible for US-Canada Trade, Dominic LeBlanc, issued a statement on X:

Carney’s previous plan to answer questions to the media the day after his speech in Davos was abruptly cancelled, citing a “scheduling issue.”

Meanwhile, as Carney has backpedaled for now, his globalist, elitist agenda is clear, and its implications are worrying for Canada’s economy, as well as for its freedoms and self-reliance. Although he parades self-reliance as a reason to distance Canada from its US neighbor, Carney should not consider China to be an acceptable alternative. Yet China as trade partner has been the Liberals’ goal during the tenures of Pierre Trudeau, Justin Trudeau, and now Mark Carney, and it won’t vanish because of Trump’s opposition. At best, it will go temporarily dormant.

Comments

  1. Placed Globalist, Carney is a sky is falling nutter. He campaigned telling Canadians their greatest threat is China. This is the man who called patriot Canadians insurrectionists and supported the implementation of the illegal Emergency Act. Every time he makes a statement there should be a WARNING, Believe nothing of what you hear.

  2. You are right ET 3 passport holding Carney (Canada ,England ,Ireland for the lower tax rate ) cannot be trusted .He is only loyalty to his global elite handlers ,he ran on Trump was a bad orange Hitler and China was threat to Canada he could not wait to kiss the ring of his Chinese overloads speaking about one world government when on Chinese soil .Now he backs down on what he said to the Chinese just two weeks ago .

  3. Seven years long Governor of the Bank of England, Carney seems to follow the tune of a piper that tells him he can ignore citizens’ interests and expect the US to continue as before despite the fact that Canada is no longer the same country with which so many deals were negotiated. Are NATO countries under the same influence? They’re making the same assumptions.

  5. Bloviator- a person who habitually speaks or writes in a pompous, windy, long-winded manner, often saying very little of substance: i.e. “When it comes to the Covid crisis, Carney writes, “We are living Lenin’s observation that there are decades when nothing happens and weeks when decades happen.” Why is the WEF placed pretender quoting vicious, ruthless murder.

    Heads up, elbows down, yo Canadians this is a nutter global clown. China is responsible for half of global carbon emissions and is developing more coal plants. Spun

    • She was just 17, whoa, you know what I mean, spewing climate shit that was way beyond compare, now I have myself a little climate nutter, since I saw her standing there.

      Carney commends the knowledge and WISDOM of Greta Thunberg, the Swedish teenager, “The power of Greta’s message lies in the way she drives home both cold logic of the climate physics and the fundaMENTAL unfairness of the climate crisis.” “Greta’s “basic calculations” are one that she could “easily master and powerfully project.”

      In early 2020, darling Greta demonstrated her complete disconnect from reality, when at the WEF in Davos, she called for an immediate cessation of emissions, which would tank the world economy and potentially kill millions. Carney admits deviating from her WISDOM on that point.

      The placed one is there to frighten the world, his agenda depends on fear, fear, feat and a lack of grade 5 science no doubt.
      Eminent historian, Niall Ferguson, asked why in his discussion of the climate issue, he made no reference to Bjorn Lamborghini, as a much more knowledgeable Scandinavian than Greta?

  6. Carney has learned the embarrassing hard way not to mess with Pres. Trump on trade issues.

    • James, Carney is an embarrassment, methinks he along with Soros, Gates, and all the WEF supports are evil, madmen / women. There is a lot of weight on D. J. Trump’s shoulders, he seems to be winning the good vs evil fight. He has young Canadians support.

    • Given the humiliation of his predecessor the soy boy, he should have known that much earlier

      • Ruthless narcissists always think they are the smartest “peoplekind” in the room.
