Promethean Action] After Mark Carney pulled Canada out of U.S. trade talks and called it a war, Susan Kokinda shows it isn’t about tariffs — it’s a midterm operation and a clash of systems. Scott Bessent is fighting the parallel battle: defusing the yen carry trade with tools like FIMA so Treasury rates don’t blow.After Prime Minister Mark Carney abruptly pulled Canada out of U.S. trade talks and framed the dispute as a "war," this episode argues the rupture isn’t really about tariffs but about political and financial strategy aimed at the U.S. midterm elections. Citing U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer’s account of negotiations and Canada’s unique retaliation, the script claims Carney is pursuing "geo-industrialization" and a "donut strategy" to go around the White House and influence American public opinion, aided by U.S.-connected advisers and outreach to mostly Democrats. It also highlights comments from Iran’s foreign minister about U.S. debt and links the broader conflict to competing economic systems. The episode concludes that Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is fighting a parallel battle to manage risks from the yen carry trade using tools like FIMA to prevent destabilizing Treasury selloffs.
