[Global Network Reporter Li Sa] US President Trump suddenly announced late at night on the 23rd that he would suspend trade negotiations with Canada because he was dissatisfied with an advertisement sponsored by the Ontario government. According to foreign media reports such as the Financial Times and the Guardian, Canadian Prime Minister mark carney publicly stated on the 24th local time that he actively sought cooperation with Asian countries to reduce economic dependence on the United States.

Based on the above-mentioned foreign media reports, Carney started his first "Indo-Pacific trip" since taking office as prime minister on the 24th to attend the ASEAN Summit held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Carney told reporters before leaving,"We cannot influence U.S. trade policy.""What we can control is to conclude new partnerships and open up new opportunities, including cooperation with important Asian economies."

On the evening of 23rd local time, US President Trump said through social media, "The 'Ronald Reagan Foundation' has just issued a statement saying that Canada is suspected of fraudulently using a false advertisement, in which (former US President) Ronald Reagan made negative remarks about tariffs." Trump said that tariffs are crucial to the national security and economy of the United States. In view of Canada's actions, the United States hereby suspends all trade negotiations with Canada.

In March, Carney said that the traditional relationship between Canada and the United States had ended, and that Canada had to fundamentally reshape its economy in the face of the increasing tariffs imposed by the U.S. government. In September, Carney announced the first list of national key projects covering areas such as energy, minerals and port construction, and planned to boost its economy and reduce its dependence on the U.S. through large-scale infrastructure construction. On October 22, Carney said that the government's upcoming first budget would reduce Canada's dependence on the U.S. in the fields of economy and security and reduce wasteful spending.
