Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has reflected on the deteriorating relationship with Washington during a visit to a Newfoundland town that welcomed thousands of stranded US travellers in the wake of 9/11.
The Liberal party leader’s visit to the town of Gander took place on the second day of the national election campaign after Carney called a snap vote. It comes as Canada remains locked in a trade war with its increasingly belligerent southern neighbour, whose president has appeared to threaten it with annexation.
