Canada’s Mark Carney says ‘Trump will never break us’ as Liberal Party pulls off stunning election victory [Video]

Canada’s prime minister Mark Carney said that Donald Trump will “never break us” as his Liberal Party stormed to victory in the country’s election.

The win caps a stunning turnaround in fortunes fuelled by the US President’s annexation and trade war threats.

In a victory speech before supporters in Ottawa on Tuesday morning, Mr Carney stressed the importance of Canadian unity in the face of the threats coming from Washington.

“We are over the shock of the American betrayal, but we should never forget the lessons,” he said.

“As I’ve been warning for months, America wants our land, our resources, our water, our country,” the former Bank of England governor said.

“These are not idle threats. President Trump is trying to break us so America can own us. That will never – that will never, ever happen. But we also must recognize the reality that our world has fundamentally changed.”
