‘Canada lives because of us’: Trump issues sharp warning to Mark Carney after ‘rupture’ speech at Davos | World News

US President Donald Trump needled his northern neighbour after Canadian Prime Miner Mark Carney said Tuesday that the current phase of global diplomacy was a “rupture” and called for “middle powers” to “act together.” At the World Economic Forum,  Trump said Canada gets many “freebies” from the US and “should be grateful”. He said Carney’s Davos speech showed he “wasn’t so grateful.
“Canada lives because of the United States,” Trump said. “Remember that, Mark, the next time you make your statements.”
Earlier, speaking at Davos, Mark Carney said the US-led global system of governance is enduring “a rupture,” defined great power competition and a “fading” rules-based order.
Since entering Canadian politics in 2025, Carney has repeatedly warned that the world was not going to return to a pre-Trump normal. He reaffirmed that message Tuesday, in a speech that did not name Trump but offered an analysis of the president’s impact on global affairs.
“We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition,” Carney said.
He noted that Canada had benefited from the old “rules-based international order,” including from “American hegemony” that “helped provide public goods: open sea lanes, a stable financial system, collective security, and support for frameworks for resolving disputes.”
