Danielle Smith uses notwithstanding clause to declare herself premier of B.C.
Prime Minister Mark Carney disagrees with the concept of a premier of one province unilaterally taking over a different province, but his hands are tied by his unwillingness to do anything about it.

The Russian army is exhausted too. Russia is taking far higher casualties than Ukraine, and after 3.5 years has barely moved the front line. The idea that Russia is “winning” is simply not supported by the evidence. As I told DW News.

He waives it off and replies as if to say "Pffff who cares".
Meanwhile he signed deals worth many many $billions for Canada on this trip.

PM Carney was asked when he last spoke to Trump: "Who cares. It's a detail. I'll speak to him again when it matters. I don't have a burning issue to speak with the president about right now. When America wants to come back and have the discussions on the trade side we will have those discussions." 👏🏽
