Is Canada leading the global resistance against Trump?

Canada鈥檚 PM Mark Carney says 鈥渢he old world order is not coming back鈥�.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney seemed to challenge Donald Trump in a speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos this week, declaring that 鈥渢he old world order is not coming back鈥� and urging fellow 鈥渕iddle powers鈥� to come together.

In response, Trump said Canada gets 鈥渁 lot of freebies鈥� from the United States and 鈥渢hey should be grateful鈥�.

After striking a major trade and tariff deal with China 鈥� the US鈥檚 rival superpower 鈥� is Carney emerging as the leader of a global resistance to Trump? And does he have an alternative vision for the world? We speak to Lyse Doucet, the 麻豆社鈥檚 chief international correspondent.
