Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said that Canada will independently decide its international agreements, pushing back against US President Donald Trump's criticism of proposed closer ties with the EU, including potential associate membership.⁣
⁣
His remarks followed Trump calling European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen's proposal "laughable" and threatening additional tariffs as both Canada and the EU face ongoing trade pressure from Washington and growing competition from China.⁣
⁣
"No one is going to dictate our culture or with whom we can strike agreements internationally," Carney told reporters at the European Parliament in Strasbourg, adding that a closer EU relationship could make Canada a more effective U.S. partner.⁣
