Canada PM Carney: Trump comments will need to stop before talks can begin

Source Fxstreet

Newly-minted Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has hit the ground running on anti-Trump rhetoric as the new Canadian PM gears up to announce a national election in the coming days, and capitalize on Trump tensions that have sewered the US President's approval ratings amongst consumers and voters in recent weeks.

PM Carney specifically noted that Donald Trump's slanderous comments about Canada becoming a state and continuing to refer to the Canadian Prime Minister as "Governor" will need to be rectified. PM Carney added further fuel to the fire meant to get under Trump's skin by extending a formal invitation to the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy to the upcoming G7 meeting, to be hosted by Canada in June.

Canadian PM Carney also noted that Canada is toying with canceling its standing orders for US-produced F-35 fighter planes, noting that Canada has the manufacturing and technology capabilities to produce its own version of the modern-era warplane.

Key highlights

I invited Ukraine’s President Zelenskiy to June G7 summit in Canada.

We're not trying to organize a coordinated retaliation against US tariffs.

We want a more comprehensive discussion and negotiation of our overall commercial and security relationship with the US.

Trump's comments about Canada will need to stop before bilateral discussions can begin.

Silver breaks $64 as precious metals rebound — can gold hold the $4,280 line into the Fed decision?Silver has climbed back above $64 an ounce for the first time this week, leading a broad rebound across precious metals hours before the Federal Reserve delivers what is expected to be its first rate hike since 2023. Spot silver was last at $64.64, up 1.49% on the day, while gold reclaimed $4,300 and platinum and palladium both advanced. The question now is whether the bounce is a genuine turn — or a pause before the Fed's dot plot decides the next move.
