Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney used the historic Churchill Falls energy-sharing agreement between Newfoundland and Labrador and Quebec to send a powerful message before the next U.S. tariff deadline.
Asked whether he expected to speak with President Donald Trump, Carney said yes — and suggested the first thing he would raise is not fear, not retaliation, but Canada’s strength.
Carney pointed to the scale of the Churchill Falls investment: 14,000 megawatts of clean power, more than 23,000 construction jobs, and the opening up of the Labrador Trough, one of Canada’s most strategic regions.
He also highlighted Canada’s enormous resources in critical minerals and iron ore, with the broader development expected to support another 16,000 construction jobs.
This is Carney’s answer to Trump’s tariffs: Canada will not simply defend itself — it will build.
Clean electricity. Critical minerals. Industrial power. Export capacity. Real jobs.
Carney called it a generational investment, the kind of project that gets everyone’s attention — including the President of the United States.
As Washington threatens tariffs, Canada is showing what real economic power looks like: energy security, strategic resources, and a national plan to compete in a dangerous world.
The message to Trump is unmistakable: Canada is not waiting for permission. Canada is building its future.
