Pleased to speak with Mark Carney after his election victory.

The economic links between Canada and the EU are an essential pillar of our strategic relationship. The Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement is a success, allowing us to grow our economies, and build resilient supply chains.

I look forward to an EU-Canada Summit, an opportunity for deepening our cooperation on topics such as global trade, security and defence, and humanitarian aid.

One illustration of just how extreme the numbers were this quarter, it was the second largest increase in real imports as a share of GDP ever recorded (2020-Q3 was larger).

Inventory increase was on the high side but not remotely commensurately high.

Focus, for a moment, on all of the goods that remain hit by Trump's massive new tariff barrage.

Excellent explainer and data viz from @nassosstylianou.bsky.social et al

Words matter. Yesterday I was asked by someone how much Canada “despised” the US? No. Canadians respect Americans and expect to be respected in turn. We play hockey hard. Don’t mistake that for hatred. Canadians are far smarter, kinder and strategic than that. #Canada #proud #ElbowsUp 🇨🇦❤️💪

Tariff retaliation by Canada and Mexico would cause lower GDP than otherwise in all three countries
Tariff retaliation by Canada and Mexico would cause higher inflation than otherwise in all three countries

25% tariffs on Canada & Mexico would cause lower GDP & higher inflation than otherwise in all three countries, including the US—& the damage would be even worse if Canada & Mexico retaliate. #EconSky
