Weaknesses that we must correct.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Carney said <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/trump-threatens-canada-with-50-tariff-on-aircraft-sold-in-us-expanding-trade-war-4\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">tariffs imposed by President Trump<\/a><\/span> have affected workers in the auto and steel industries. He added that businesses are holding back investments &#8220;restrained by the pall of uncertainty that&#8217;s hanging over all of us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Many Canadians have also been angered by Mr. Trump&#8217;s comments <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/mark-carney-trump-meeting-video-canada-not-for-sale\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">suggesting Canada become the 51st state<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>Carney said he plans to give Canadians regular updates on his government&#8217;s efforts to diversify away from the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Security can&#8217;t be achieved by ignoring the obvious or downplaying the very real threats that we Canadians face,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I promise you I will never sugarcoat our challenges.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not the first time Carney, who served as a central bank governor, first at the Bank of Canada and later with the Bank of England, has spoken about a shift in world power.<\/p>\n<p>During a speech in January at the World Economic Forum in <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/canada-mark-carney-speech-davos-trump-rupturing-world-order\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Davos<\/a><\/span>, Switzerland, he received widespread praise for condemning economic coercion by great powers against small countries.<\/p>\n<p>His remarks brought a rebuke from Mr. Trump.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Canada lives because of the United States,&#8221; Mr. Trump said after the speech. &#8220;Remember that, Mark, the next time you make your statements.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Carney&#8217;s comments came days after securing a majority government following special election wins and as the opposition Conservatives push him to deliver a U.S. trade deal, which was among his promises in last year&#8217;s election.<\/p>\n<p>A review of the current version of the\u00a0<span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/usmca-bill-trade-deal-heres-whats-in-the-u-s-mexico-canada-agreement-the-new-nafta-today-2019-12-10\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">North American Free Trade Agreement<\/a><\/span> between Canada, the U.S. and Mexico is scheduled for July.<\/p>\n<p>In his address, Carney said he wants to attract new investments into Canada, double the size of clean energy capacity and reduce trade barriers within the country. He also emphasized Canada&#8217;s increased defense spending, reduction in taxes and efforts to make housing more affordable.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have to take care of ourselves because we can&#8217;t rely on one foreign partner,&#8221; he said. &#8220;We can&#8217;t control the disruption coming from our neighbors. We can&#8217;t control our future on the hope it will suddenly stop.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We can control what happens here. We can build a stronger country that can withstand disruptions from abroad.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Carney said simply hoping the &#8220;United States will return to normal&#8221; is not a feasible strategy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Hope isn&#8217;t a plan and nostalgia is not a strategy,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Carney said Canada has &#8220;been a great neighbor&#8221; standing with the U.S. in conflicts including Afghanistan, plus two World Wars.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The U.S. has changed and we must respond,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It&#8217;s about taking back control of our security, our borders and our future.&#8221;<\/p>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n<\/section>\n<p>  <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation
