So we're now, as the prime minister said, we're having to look elsewhere for the kind of alliances and agreements and understandings that we used to have with our nearest neighbour.

So we're now, as the prime minister said, we're having to look elsewhere for the kind of alliances and agreements and understandings that we used to have with our nearest neighbour. If our nearest neighbour doesn't respect the rule of law,
for its citizens, how's it going to respect the rule of international law? And it certainly doesn't respect us as Canada. So we have no choice. We have to make decisions and we're going to make decisions that benefit our region and our people first.

I think in Canada, the conversation for some time has been, how do we share information with an unstable supposed ally who's now our enemy? I mean, what are they, on some kind of group chat talking about international secrecy? We've seen with Mr. Pete Hegseth and his crowd. You think anybody's going to be sharing that kind of information when there's such a disregard for it?

We'll do it outside of the United States to keep your contracts. Whereas we're saying, well, we'll do it domestically or we'll do it in Europe.
