“They have worked hard, in good faith, to defend the interests of Canadians throughout these negotiations up until the very last minute,” Carney continued. “However, last-minute changes in the U.S. proposed terms were unfair, uneconomic, and called into question the reliability of any deal.”

Carney also said the United States wanted to include terms in the deal that would put limits on the trade deals Canada was able to seek with other countries.
Since tariffs were first levied on Canadian goods, Ottawa has sought new trade deals with countries around the world, positioning itself as a key “middle power.”
Deals with Indonesia and the United Arab Emirates and talks with India are among the agreements Canada has recently reached, with 20 deals touted by the prime minister’s office.
“The U.S. introduced, in the last hours, efforts to restrict our ability to have other trade deals,” Carney said Saturday.
“We believe in free trade; we’re the partner of choice in many respects for countries around the world, and the Americans wanted to restrict that. They had language that they wanted to restrict. Unacceptable.”
I'm annoyed with Carney over a lot of things, but this deal was idiotic and that is why almost every single Canadian elected official agreed with rejecting it
