Tensions Rise as Trump and Carney Clash Over Tariffs and Canadian Sovereignty

President Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney met in the Oval Office, but the atmosphere was anything

but friendly.

Trump pushed his idea for Canada to become the 51st US state, but Carney firmly replied, "There are

some places that are never for sale ...

it's not for sale.

It won't be for sale, ever." The two leaders showed no signs of backing down on the ongoing

trade war, with Trump refusing to lift steep tariffs and Carney vowing to fight for Canada’s interests.

The Alaska Legislature passed a resolution urging continued cooperation with Canada, despite the White House’s tough stance.

Meanwhile, British Columbia is considering tolls on trucks heading to Alaska in response to US tariffs.

Local leaders stress that the partnership is vital for jobs and supplies, with one senator saying, "Keeping our

partnership with Canada alive isn’t just good policy, it’s critical to the way we live."
