  • well the US president did not respond
  • directly to today's throne speech but
  • did post this online after On Truth
  • Social Trump wrote 'Canada very much
  • wants to be part of our fabulous Golden
  • Dome system It will cost 61 billion US
  • equivalent to more than 84 billion
  • Canadian if they remain a separate but
  • unequal nation adding it will be 0 if
  • they become our cherished 51st state.'
  • Trump ended with 'They are considering
  • the offer.' Mark Carney's office was
  • quick to respond writing 'Prime Minister
  • has been clear at every opportunity
  • including in his conversations with
  • President Trump that Canada is an
  • independent sovereign nation and it will
  • remain one.' In the span of 72 hours the
  • most stable alliance in modern history
  • just shattered on live television What
  • you're about to witness isn't just
  • diplomatic theater It's the moment
  • Canada stopped being America's polite
  • neighbor and became its most formidable
  • adversary Prime Minister Mark Carney
  • didn't raise his voice He didn't shout

  • 1:00
  • or get angry Instead he stayed calm and
  • clear in front of the world He shared
  • ideas that were very different from what
  • President Trump believes And many people
  • watched closely as someone known for
  • always pushing back had to deal with
  • someone who didn't seem scared at all
  • This wasn't just a regular G7 meeting It
  • was more like a small leader facing a
  • big one with Canada's Maple Leaf quietly
  • taking the stage When it was over
  • President Trump stood alone and Prime
  • Minister Carney left with something very
  • important Many people around the world
  • were now listening to him Clips from the
  • meeting are spreading fast In them Trump
  • moves his hands and speaks with energy
  • Carney sits still arms crossed saying
  • nothing until the time is right Then
  • when he speaks his words are soft but
  • strong Some say you can even see Trump's
  • mood change while it happens And when
  • Carney didn't go in for a final
  • handshake people began wondering can
  • this long friendship between the two

  • 2:01
  • countries be fixed What happened in
  • Ottawa wasn't just about politics It
  • showed how someone could face pressure
  • without yelling or getting upset Mark
  • Carney may have changed how global talks
  • work and it may take a long time for
  • Trump to respond in the same way The
  • setup for this moment started weeks
  • before President Trump even landed in
  • Ottawa It looked like normal meeting
  • prep but Prime Minister Carney was
  • planning something careful While Trump
  • was posting strong messages and setting
  • new tariffs Carney was quietly bringing
  • other countries together He didn't rush
  • He waited He made a list of every US
  • tariff He looked at how they were
  • hurting Canadian jobs and businesses
  • Then he built a clear plan It wasn't
  • loud It was smart And it left almost no
  • room for Trump to push back Carney's
  • team also talked to the other G7 leaders
  • They didn't beg for help They just
  • showed the facts France saw how the US
  • tariffs hurt Europe's trade Germany got

  • 3:00
  • numbers about how their companies were
  • paying more Japan learned how all the
  • back and forth was shaking up Asian
  • markets So when Trump walked into the
  • room it wasn't just a group of friends
  • waiting to talk It was more like a room
  • full of people with the same homework
  • And Carney was ready to speak up
  • Carney's plan was simple He didn't try
  • to be louder or meaner Instead he used
  • something Trump wasn't expecting a quiet
  • request to explain his ideas in front of
  • everyone Carney knew that if Trump had
  • to explain everything out loud the
  • pieces might not all fit together That's
  • how the real test began It started with
  • a regular sounding topic trade relations
  • and global economic stability It looked
  • like a normal line on a meeting agenda
  • but really it was the open door Carney
  • needed The moment happened on the second
  • day of the summit It was during a closed
  • door meeting The topic was trade but
  • things quickly became tense President
  • Trump started speaking He talked with
  • energy moved his hands a lot and said

  • 4:01
  • many things He praised the US economy He
  • warned that countries who didn't agree
  • might face penalties Some leaders looked
  • nervous but Carney just sat there still
  • and quiet writing on a yellow notepad
  • After Trump spoke for nearly 15 minutes
  • he asked for Canada's response That's
  • when Carney surprised the room He pulled
  • out a paper and began to read He didn't
  • sound angry He didn't try to impress
  • anyone It felt more like he was sharing
  • numbers in a business meeting Mr
  • President Carney began calmly You just
  • described some trade actions Based on
  • our study they cost American shoppers
  • $47 billion and led to the loss of
  • 127,000 American jobs Would you like to
  • see the details The room went quiet
  • Trump seemed ready for a fight but
  • instead he faced something different
  • Clear facts with no emotion What came
  • next was one of the most uncomfortable
  • talks in G7 history Carney went through

  • 5:01
  • each of Trump's points He used numbers
  • from US government sources to explain
  • how some ideas hadn't worked well He
  • didn't mock or raise his voice He just
  • read what the data said One moment stood
  • out Trump had warned about taxes on
  • Canadian cars Carney looked up and said
  • 'Mr President most of those cars are
  • made by American companies They use
  • American parts You would be placing a
  • tax on your own companies for doing a
  • good job.' After that comment Trump
  • didn't offer numbers or reports in
  • return Instead he spoke with more
  • emotion Mark you're being very unfair He
  • said 'Canada has taken advantage of us
  • for years That's going to stop.'
  • Carney's reply got people's attention Mr
  • President he said 'Unfairness isn't
  • something we can measure in trade If you
  • have data that shows a different result
  • I'll gladly look at it If you have
  • better plans I'm happy to talk But if
  • you want me to agree based only on

  • 6:00
  • feelings we may not mean the same thing
  • when we talk about leadership The room
  • stayed silent Some leaders looked down
  • One even covered his face Others didn't
  • say anything but their body language
  • showed the moment was serious What made
  • Carney's style so powerful wasn't just
  • what he said it was how he said it This
  • wasn't a private meeting where things
  • could be brushed off It was in front of
  • all the major world leaders and each of
  • them had their own experience dealing
  • with Trump's style President Mron of
  • France had often tried to keep things
  • friendly with Trump using kind words But
  • now he saw a different approach firm
  • quiet and focused on facts Germany's
  • leader Olaf Schultz saw that it was
  • possible to challenge Trump directly and
  • still stay respectful Carney wasn't
  • ruining the US Canada bond He was
  • showing that it didn't have to mean
  • always saying yes Other leaders noticed
  • too For years some had avoided pushing
  • back on Trump because they feared things

  • 7:00
  • might get worse But Carney showed that
  • standing firm with facts in hand could
  • work better The Japanese group paid
  • close attention They had faced similar
  • trade pressures from the US but often
  • chose to give in watching Canada hold
  • steady without being rude offered a new
  • way to think about things What really
  • stood out to people was how calm Carney
  • stayed While Trump raised his voice and
  • used strong words Carney didn't change
  • at all He kept the same soft voice and
  • clear tone He didn't smirk He didn't
  • seem pleased when Trump got upset He
  • just stayed focused like someone giving
  • a report This made the scene look even
  • more one-sided Trump known for acting
  • tough now seemed loud and unsure Carney
  • often seen as quiet looked steady and in
  • control Some said it felt like an
  • accountant quietly showing a math error
  • to a boss No yelling just facts Car's
  • work wasn't just good speaking It was
  • backed by deep research His team had

  • 8:00
  • used US government numbers Trump's own
  • numbers to show what had really happened
  • This left Trump in a tricky spot Arguing
  • with the facts meant arguing with his
  • own reports Carney gave examples that
  • made people think He said US steel
  • tariffs had cost manufacturers $4.2
  • billion but only added $8,700 jobs in
  • that industry That's almost half a
  • million dollars per job He also said
  • farmers lost $27 billion in exports and
  • needed help from the government just to
  • stay afloat But the part that hit
  • hardest was about a quote from Trump
  • himself Trump had once said 'Trade wars
  • are easy to win.' Carney quietly said
  • 'Mr President if this is what winning
  • looks like I'm curious what losing would
  • mean.'Trump answered by saying other
  • countries pay the tariffs but economists
  • have explained that it's usually the
  • buyers in the US who pay them Carney
  • didn't argue or raise his voice He just
  • read a report from the US Treasury It

  • 9:00
  • said all the money from tariffs came
  • from American companies and shoppers
  • Things got even more tense when Trump
  • again talked about taxing Canadian cars
  • Carney was ready He brought out another
  • report It showed that 125,000 American
  • jobs were tied to Canadian auto plants
  • These plants used US parts and made cars
  • efficiently Carney said 'Mr President
  • you're talking about placing extra costs
  • on General Motors Ford and Chrysler for
  • being smart and costeffective These are
  • not foreign companies hurting the US
  • They are American companies using
  • Canadian help to make things better for
  • American families.' The numbers were
  • clear Trump didn't try to argue with
  • them Instead he went back to using words
  • like fairness and respect But Carney had
  • more examples He showed how some US
  • industries already had trade advantages
  • Trump had left those parts out What made
  • Carney's strategy work was that he knew
  • how Trump handled pressure Trump often
  • pushed back hard and turned arguments

  • 10:00
  • emotional but Carney didn't let that
  • happen He stayed calm and never got
  • personal That left Trump with no easy
  • way to take control of the room Trump
  • became visibly annoyed He tried to get
  • Carney to react He used sharp words and
  • hand gestures but Carney didn't change
  • He stayed steady which made Trump's
  • outbursts feel less serious The moment
  • that many people remember most came when
  • Trump said Canada had taken advantage of
  • the US Carney replied calmly 'Mr
  • President I'm not sure what you mean by
  • generosity Our research shows that when
  • we include services the US actually
  • makes more money from Canada than we
  • make from the US Last year American
  • companies earned $47 billion more from
  • Canada If that's what taking advantage
  • looks like maybe we're both lucky Trump
  • didn't offer facts in return He started
  • talking about feelings wanting more
  • respect and appreciation It showed that
  • the argument wasn't really about trade
  • numbers anymore It had become personal
  • Carney didn't react He didn't comfort

  • 11:01
  • Trump and he didn't argue he just moved
  • on That may have been the hardest part
  • for Trump being ignored when he wanted
  • attention The pressure increased because
  • of the audience Trump was used to
  • one-on-one meetings where he could steer
  • the conversation But here with all the
  • other leaders watching his usual tactics
  • didn't work the same way By the end
  • Trump seemed different His voice wasn't
  • as strong He looked around the room
  • hoping for support but most leaders just
  • stayed quiet Soon after news began to
  • spread Diplomats from many countries
  • shared what they had seen The message
  • was clear Canada had shown a new way to
  • deal with tough talks Leaders from
  • Europe were especially interested For
  • years they had tried to work with the US
  • while also protecting their own needs
  • Carney's example gave them a new idea
  • Stay polite but don't be afraid to speak
  • with facts Don't make it personal Just
  • be clear The French team paid close
  • attention President McCron had often
  • tried to get along with Trump by being

  • 12:00
  • friendly and saying nice things But
  • Carney didn't do that He simply told the
  • truth without sugar coating it and it
  • worked Leaders from Asia noticed too
  • Japan and South Korea had both faced
  • trade pressure from the US They usually
  • gave in or tried to meet in the middle
  • but now they saw that being firm and
  • still respectful could work even for
  • smaller countries The biggest message
  • was this Trump's reputation as a great
  • dealmaker was being questioned When
  • asked to back up his plans with real
  • data he struggled Without strong facts
  • his arguments didn't hold up News
  • outlets around the world showed pictures
  • from the meeting Many pointed out how
  • different the two leaders looked Carney
  • quiet and still Trump moving and
  • speaking loudly Some turned the moment
  • into a meme showing the contrast between
  • calm leadership and loud reactions Even
  • in the US news coverage had mixed
  • feelings Some tried to defend Trump but
  • the facts were hard to argue with When
  • the numbers are clear even friendly
  • reporters have a tough time telling a

  • 13:01
  • different story After the meeting the
  • results became clear very quickly Within
  • one day Trump's threat to tax Canadian
  • cars quietly disappeared His call for
  • fast changes to trade deals was replaced
  • with vague promises to talk more later
  • Even more interesting other leaders
  • began copying parts of Carney's method
  • The final G7 statement which usually
  • avoids strong words included phrases
  • like fact-based trade and
  • evidence-driven policy These were quiet
  • ways of saying that not everyone agreed
  • with Trump's style anymore Back in
  • Canada people were proud Carney's
  • approval numbers jumped Many Canadians
  • liked how he stayed calm stood up for
  • their country and didn't cause drama In
  • the US things were more complicated
  • Trump's strongest supporters stayed with
  • him but voters in the middle and
  • especially business leaders started
  • asking questions If a smaller country
  • like Canada could block Trump's plans so
  • easily what would happen with bigger
  • ones like China Business owners were

  • 14:01
  • also concerned Canada is one of
  • America's biggest trade partners If even
  • Canada was standing up to Trump it
  • showed that the US might be losing its
  • edge with its closest friends More and
  • more people began wondering was Trump's
  • reputation as a strong negotiator real
  • or was it just an image Carney's actions
  • at the G7 weren't just about winning an
  • argument They showed how a leader can
  • stand up for their country while staying
  • calm and respectful His way of dealing
  • with pressure gave other countries a new
  • example to follow Carney didn't shout He
  • didn't call names He brought facts
  • stayed steady and spoke clearly that
  • made it hard for Trump to fight back
  • using emotion or drama What happened in
  • Ottawa also showed that being honest and
  • prepared still matters Carney's team had
  • studied every detail They knew the
  • numbers They guessed what Trump might
  • say and they were ready with clear
  • answers Trump on the other hand seemed
  • to speak from memory and emotion He used

  • 15:01
  • big words and warnings but didn't have
  • the facts to back them up That made a
  • big difference in how people saw each
  • leader This meeting wasn't just another
  • political moment It was a lesson Carney
  • didn't embarrass Trump with jokes or
  • insults He did it with planning facts
  • and calm confidence The picture of Trump
  • waving his arms while Carney sat still
  • told the whole story For many that was
  • the moment Trump's image as a strong
  • global leader started to fade Carney
  • showed that countries don't have to
  • choose between keeping peace and
  • standing up for themselves He proved
  • it's possible to do both by staying
  • polite and standing firm on the facts
  • Leaders around the world took notice
  • Some may have been waiting for someone
  • to show it could be done Canada did just
  • that Trump often used pressure to get
  • what he wanted But Carney didn't fall
  • for that He didn't get scared He didn't
  • get loud He stayed focused and clear and
  • it worked For Trump this moment hurt
  • more than a failed deal It hit the image

  • 16:02
  • he had built for years The image of
  • someone who always wins who never backs
  • down When a quiet economist from Canada
  • made him look unprepared in front of
  • world leaders people began to see him
  • differently At the end of the summit
  • there was no handshake Carney didn't
  • walk away angry He just didn't feel the
  • need to pretend everything was fine
  • Sometimes saying nothing says the most
  • Canada's message was simple You don't
  • need to fight loudly to be strong You
  • don't need to make threats to be
  • respected And you don't have to lose
  • your values to stand up for them What
  • Canada showed that day was a new way to
  • handle tough situations Not with anger
  • not with fear but with calm thinking and
  • truth Carney didn't try to hurt Trump He
  • just refused to play by Trump's rules
  • Trump may not forget that moment anytime
  • soon but the rest of the world learned
  • something important Even the biggest
  • voices can be challenged if you're
  • prepared respectful and clear The
  • friendship between the US and Canada
  • will continue but it won't be the same

  • 17:02
  • Canada made it clear Being a good friend
  • doesn't mean saying yes to everything
  • Real respect has to be earned not
  • demanded Mark Carney gave the world a
  • reminder of what leadership can look
  • like Strong steady and focused on what's
  • real As Trump looks to the future he may
  • find that moment in Ottawa harder to
  • leave behind than he expected
