Mark Carney, Canadian Prime Minister, boasted of obtaining more foreign direct investments for his country than those made by the United States in recent months.

In response to several uncomfortable comments made by President Donald Trump, the person directly responsible for coordinating Canadian policy gave him “a slap with a glove” by sending him a veiled message during a press conference where he points out that he has surpassed his southern neighbor in terms of attracting direct foreign investments and with respect to job creation, at least in the last quarter.

"Canada is creating jobs at twice the rate of the United States. We receive foreign direct investment at a rate higher than our closest G7 competitor, the United States. We are seeing growth recovering this quarter," he said.

Before the appointment of Mark Carney as Canadian Prime Minister, the New York magnate had already been in charge of orchestrating a campaign of submission against Canada under the warning of annexing it to the United States.

From Trump's perspective, the Canadian government has been taking advantage of its southern neighbor through a trade agreement where Mexico also appears as a partner.

The sustained argument was that both countries were being freed from tariffs and in the proportion of what they exported to the United States, in relation to their imports, they were the ones who ended up benefiting the most.

The point of controversy arose later, when Trump openly expressed his interest in adding the Canadian territory as an extension of his nation.

In fact, while giving a speech this week in Las Vegas, Nevada, the 80-year-old politician expressed his dislike for some Canadians.

"Canada is unpleasant. They are. They are unpleasant. I love their people, but they are unpleasant. They have unpleasant leaders," he stressed.

Donald Trump's comments arise in the midst of a review of the aforementioned trade agreement and, days after, Canadian government officials went to Washington to negotiate that, under no circumstances, should steel, aluminum, forestry products and the automotive sector be excluded, since without them there would no longer be interest in trade.
