Canadian prime minister’s reaction to Donald Trump

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney stirred online buzz after clashing with U.S. President Donald Trump at the 2025 G7 Summit in Kananaskis, Alberta. During a joint press conference, Trump commented on delayed trade talks, promoting his tariff approach while suggesting Carney’s was more complicated. Carney responded with a smirk and a wink to the press, which quickly went viral. Their subtle jabs continued, drawing mixed reactions online — some praised Carney’s poise, while others mocked Trump’s remarks about tariffs and trade.

Later, as Trump criticized former leaders Barack Obama and Justin Trudeau over Russia’s exclusion from the G8 and claimed war could have been avoided under his leadership, Carney stepped in and cut him off. Exercising his role as G7 chair, Carney redirected the conversation back to official matters. While liberal viewers applauded Carney’s composure and interruption, Trump supporters were less impressed, accusing the Canadian PM of weakness. The exchange highlighted ongoing tensions between the two leaders and sparked widespread discussion on social media.
