00:00:00with them uh, they've been taking actions to protect their own market,
00:00:03to make to to try to get hold of trans shipment, which is something that we're worried
00:00:07about, uh, so we'll see what conversations look like with them for this week. thanks
00:00:10everybody talk about secretary's role in
00:00:13this,
00:00:17the history of to Canadian prime minister Mark Carney now on what he's calling the
00:00:20largest ship building initiative in Quebec's history, a met
00:00:24escalating trade war with the United States. he also talks about his plan
00:00:27to diversify the country's trade partner.
00:00:30beyond the US, it's just under 10
00:00:32minutes,
00:00:35the goal of our trade negotiations with United States
00:00:39has always been to get the best deal for
00:00:43Canadians, never deal at any
00:00:46price or in any time
00:00:47frame.
00:00:56Well, we made progress, we did make some progress in recent weeks. in
00:01:00the end that momentum reversed and we
00:01:03could not accept what the US had offered, nor could we
00:01:07give what they asked, and by standing up for our values and
00:01:11focusing on what we can control, we will
00:01:14build for in Canada for
00:01:1742.
00:01:24now that's not to say there won't be challenges in the road
00:01:28ahead, but we're ready. to meet them because we have all we
00:01:32need right here, the workers, the
00:01:35engineers, the ambition and the right
00:01:39plan, the right plan
00:01:42open throughout for a stronger Quebec and a stronger Canada, building at home and diversifying our trade
00:01:46abroad, that's not plan B, it's been our
00:01:50plan A from the start,
00:01:53last week in St. Johns, we
00:01:57launched the largest clean energy project in
00:02:00North American history,
00:02:02Madame Premier Fréchette, I
00:02:06would like to thank you for your leadership, your true
00:02:09leadership, which you have shown
00:02:13in bringing this project to
00:02:15fruition.
00:02:24A little context, this project will allow
00:02:27us to produce enough clean electricity.
00:02:54Now diversifying trade is also fundamental to building a stronger, a more
00:02:57independent and a more resilient country. Over the
00:03:00last year, the last year alone, Canada has signed more than
00:03:0420 trade and security deals across five
00:03:07continents. We completed our most recent
00:03:10trade deal with the United Arab Emirates in a record 47
00:03:14days. Canada is now
00:03:17the best connected economy in the
00:03:20world.
00:03:30businesses now enjoy terror free access to one and a half
00:03:33billion consumers, over the next six months, we will double
00:03:37that number through new trade deals with ASEAN and
00:03:40India. This fall, we will begin
00:03:43intense discussions with the European Union, the world's
00:03:46second largest economy, to build a much stronger and deeper
00:03:50economic and security partnership. Now we
00:03:53can build such unparalleled
00:03:56access because we're trusted, because
00:04:00reliable and because we have what the world
00:04:03wants, but our connections
00:04:06depend on accessible, secure sea
00:04:10roots that carry our world class
00:04:13products. the St. Lawrence, one of
00:04:16the world's great trade arteries.
00:04:201959, determined to build our own
00:04:24future by connecting the St. Lawrence to the Great Leaks,
00:04:27Canada Open the St. Lawrence Seaway, seven locks.
00:05:01and the 12 million metric tons of
00:05:04Canadian grain exported last
00:05:08year alone, the highest volume
00:05:11in over three decades,
00:05:13décennies,
00:05:16we are also building to go further,
00:05:19earlier this year,
00:05:23on this same river, we launched the largest
00:05:26expansion project in
00:05:29eastern Canada, the new container
00:05:32terminal at Contrecoeur
00:05:35which will increase the port of Montreal's capacity
00:05:38by 60 %.
00:05:41Just 4 months ago, I
00:05:45believe, sir, we expanded
00:05:48customs services at the Port of
00:05:51Quebec, a project by Mr.
00:05:55by designating the latter as a
00:05:58primary port of entry, the
00:06:01Port of Quebec thus becomes a
00:06:05strategic hub that
00:06:07will contribute even more to the economic
00:06:10vitality of the city of Quebec and
00:06:14Lévis.
00:06:26more Canadian products
00:06:29around the world.
00:06:32through this terminal, every
00:06:36ton transported
00:06:39on this river depends on the maintenance of... the opening
00:06:43of our waters, there is only one type of
00:06:46ship powerful enough to
00:06:50break through the ice and keep these waterways
00:06:55the winter, the David
00:06:57class and it is
00:07:00Canada that will build them.
00:07:04Bravo.
00:07:14Today we're announcing the largest ship building initiative in Quebec's
00:07:17history. The government of Canada will invest more than 11
00:07:21billion to build six new program Ice
00:07:24breakers for the Canadian Coastgard in partnership with
00:07:27Chantier.
00:07:30Dave.
00:07:36The premier of Ontario, Doug Ford talked about the ongoing trade tensions
00:07:40between the US and Canada during his remark. a press conference, this
00:07:44runs about 40 minutes.
00:07:57Ells, how you doing folks?
