U.S. President Donald Trump withdrew the invitation to Canada to join his “Board of Peace,” days after Prime Minister Mark Carney’s address in Davos warning against economic coersion by the world’s superpowers.

“Dear Prime Minister Carney: Please let this Letter serve to represent that the Board of Peace is withdrawing its invitation to you regarding Canada’s joining,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social on Thursday night stateside.

“Great powers have begun using economic integration as weapons. Tariffs as leverage, financial infrastructure as coercion, supply chains as vulnerabilities to be exploited,” he said.

While Carney did not name any country, Trump responded later, saying on the sidelines of the forum that “Canada lives because of the United States.

Remember that, Mark, the next time you make your statements.”
