Canada's Carney talked tough on Trump - now some say he's backing down

It's another curveball in the Canada-US trade war - a new missive by US Donald Trump threatening an unexpected 35% tariff on Canadian goods starting next month.

It came as the two countries engage in intense trade talks meant to produce a new deal in the coming days, and what the latest tariff threat means for these negotiations is unclear.

But Canada's new prime minister, Mark Carney, is beginning to face questions over whether he is able to stand up to Trump and secure the fair deal for Canada he promised.

Carney won April's general election vowing to keep his "elbows up" in the face of US threats, leaning on a popular ice hockey metaphor used to describe an assertive and confrontational style of play.

But Canada's recent concessions to Trump appear to have yielded, to date, little result.

The latest came in late June, when Canada scrapped a Digital Services Tax (DST) it had planned to impose on big tech companies after Trump threatened to end negotiations over the policy.

The White House said that Canada "caved" to its demands, and the move prompted debate in Canada.

Canadian commentator Robyn Urback wrote: "Maybe Prime Minister Mark Carney's elbows were getting tired."

She said government's elbows up and down approach to negotiations so far could be characterised as a "chicken dance".

Meanwhile, Blayne Haggart, a professor of political science at Brock University, argued in a recent opinion piece in The Globe and Mail newspaper that: "Nothing about Carney's US strategy, particularly his pursuit of a 'comprehensive' trade and security agreement, makes a lick of sense."

Still many are willing to give Carney more time, and polls suggest his government maintains strong support.

Good information. They wanted a DNA ‘vaccine’ gene therapy foisted upon the world and it was rejected, I haven’t been able to determine why yet. They will eventually link CBDC’s and digital IDs to it. Then we really will have the stage set and all who receive it will be given over.

CV19 was all about Satan getting authority to act upon all the Earth. Like the Rider on the White Horse, he went everywhere conquering and to conquer with a toxin in his hand with a Bow (Ribbon its translated in Strong’s Concordance) like RNA.

They will be back to do it again. These Carney, Macron and Starner types are needed to keep the WEFs stalled plan in motion.

The ones doing this are wicked Godless reprobates empowered by the anti-Christ spirit of lawlessness.

“And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.” Matthew 24:12

“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. “ Ephesians 6:12

Satan is thrown out of Heaven in Revelation Chapter 12, then in Revelation Chapter 13, we immediately see a global buying and selling system looking exactly like what the WEF want.
