Carney signals Canada pivot to middle-power alliance, defies US pressure

Canadian PM Mark Carney, in his Davos speech and early tenure, frames Canada's stance against US pressure as part of a broader middle-power coalition, rejecting the old order. This marks a notable shift in Canadian foreign policy rhetoric, emphasizing multilateralism over traditional alignment. The implications for US-Canada relations and global trade dynamics are significant, though the concrete policy outcomes remain uncertain.
