Donald Trump withdrew on Thursday an invitation for Canada to join his “board of peace” initiative aimed at resolving global conflicts. Trump launched his “board of peace” initiative at the World Economic Forum in Davos, claiming it would be “one of the most consequential bodies ever created in the history of the world”. When he arrived in Davos, Trump made it clear that he had heard or at least heard of Carney’s viral speech. “Canada lives because of the United States,” Trump said in his own address on Wednesday. “Remember that, Mark, the next time you make your statements.”“Canada doesn’t live because of the United States,” Carney responded on Thursday.
