Presiding over Canada’s Parliament opening for the first time in nearly 50 years, King Charles III delivered a subtle rebuke to US President Donald Trump, urging Canada-US relations to be grounded in “mutual respect.” The statement came amid rising tensions and trade friction between the two nations. In his Speech from the Throne, King Charles emphasized Canada’s shift toward reliable global alliances and reiterated plans to cap temporary residents at 5% of the population by 2027. Prime Minister Mark Carney’s new government also pledged to cut middle-class taxes, reduce crime, and balance the budget within three years. (PC: Reuters)
