Canadians channeled their ‘inner John Candy’ in response to US tariff threat, Carney says

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said Thursday that in the face of tariffs and U.S. President Donald Trump’s threats to Canada’s sovereignty, Canadians channeled their “inner John Candy.” He made the remarks at the opening of the Toronto International Film Festival on Thursday night. Carney also said Canada and the world “becomes one” at TIFF, noting the festival brings the stories of people’s homelands, journeys, triumphs and tragedies.
