Trump criticized Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney for lack of gratitude despite U.S. military protection and economic support, asserting Canada benefits significantly from the alliance.

  • On Wednesday, U.S. President Donald Trump rebuked Mark Carney at the World Economic Forum in Davos, saying Canada lives because of the United States and accusing Canada of being ungrateful.

  • Observers say these trends risk alliance cohesion because Mark Carney warned the strongest exempt themselves and trade rules enforce asymmetrically, raising fears a Greenland takeover could shatter NATO.
