Carney's $4.7B VIA Rail Deal Sparks Trade War Escalation

Prime Minister Mark Carney announced Thursday that the federal government will invest $4.7 billion to build over 300 new passenger cars for Via Rail at a private facility in Thunder Bay, Ontario.

The decision is part of a plan to shift production from the United States to Canada as tensions between the two countries escalate in a trade war.

U.S. President Donald Trump responded by accusing Carney of making him 'the enemy' on social media, stating that it's good for Canadian politicians like Carney to make him an enemy until their economy collapses.
