Prime Minister Mark Carney called for a renewed relationship with the United States that would "help make America great again," positioning the remarks ahead of the July review of the USMCA. He noted that Canada is diversifying its trade away from the United States by signing agreements with dozens of other countries.

    1. We know that, when Canada and the United States have had our differences over the years, we have always – eventually – worked through them, because our shared values and common interests run deep. They run through our economies.
    2. At a time of a global energy crisis, Canada provides the United States with the reliable power and critical minerals that help fuel American growth: 99% of US natural gas imports, 85% of electricity imports and 60% of crude oil imports.
    3. With America's growing energy needs, does it make sense to build the gigawatts needed to replace Canada?
    4. Canada strong will help make America great again. The examples are legion where we should work together and compete with the world together. And to those ends, we have made specific, practical proposals to the US administration.
    5. Our core objective across these partnerships is to increase our strategic autonomy. Because we live in a world where integration has been weaponised. Because a country that cannot feed, fuel or defend itself is not truly sovereign.
