[0:00] there we go thank you in the heat of the 2025 election campaign with donald trump already
[0:22] launching economic attacks on canada mark carney stepped onto a stage in london ontario
[0:29] but not before his wife diana delivered one of the most compelling political introductions
[0:35] of the entire race she didn't just introduce a candidate she introduced a man she had counted on
[0:43] for more than 30 years calm under fire impossible to rattle and always ready to rise to the moment
[0:52] then she handed him the microphone what followed was a pure carny he looked straight at the threat
[0:59] coming from the white house called trump's trade war a betrayal of america's closest ally and laid
[1:06] out a clear plan to fight back with counter tariffs while uniting canadians to build something stronger
[1:14] this was a defining campaign moment the night the personal and the political came together
[1:20] and showed the country exactly who mark carney was prepared to be my job tonight is to tell you about
[1:28] someone that i know well and someone that you have got to know a little better over the past few weeks
[1:34] and i think uh we can all agree that we face difficult times and we're in a constantly shifting
[1:43] environment but thankfully through all of this the one thing that stays constant is my husband your
[1:51] liberal leader i love it thick and thin mark remains steadfast and dedicated he's tireless and always ready
[2:24] to rise to a challenge no matter what they may be in fact rising to a challenge is something of a defining
[2:31] characteristic of mark faced with adversity he hits the ground running he's agile
[2:40] and adaptable and he's calm and cool under fire which is always useful for me
[2:48] and he draws on his incredible memory and a depth and breadth of experience which really is second to
[2:54] none he tells me that one source of his mental agility is all the years and all the training he
[3:02] received as a goalie he's he's always ready and though he doesn't spend quite as much time on the
[3:10] ice as perhaps he used to he still has annoyingly fast reactions uh and i say annoying because in
[3:18] all the years of playing pickup hockey together i have not once got a goal past him so in hockey as in
[3:33] his life and his work nothing gets by him as as his partner i'm incredibly proud of him and as a canadian
[3:44] i'm so grateful that he is standing strong for our country and we we've traveled together across this
[4:04] great nation and it's been an enormous pleasure for both of us to connect with people like you
[4:09] who come and listen to us speaking and i've watched my husband listen i've watched him learn
[4:16] and i've seen that he'll never waver in his commitment to make this country better stronger
[4:21] and more unified for everyone so i've been fortunate to be able to count on mark for more
[4:36] than 30 years and now you can count on him too so i'm lucky to have him we're lucky to have him
[4:43] without further ado my husband carney did not waste time with soft language he called trump's trade war
[4:54] what it was a rupture of the global economy and a betrayal of america's closest friend and ally
[5:02] no more he said this was the new reality and it demanded serious leadership in a united canada
[5:10] the contrast with the chaos coming from south of the border could not have been clearer while others
[5:17] offered slogans carney named the threat and called the country to meet it so happy to be back in london

[8:47] serious leadership and a united canada then carney moved from diagnosis to action he promised
[8:59] counter tariffs calibrated to inflict maximum damage in the united states while protecting canadian
[9:06] workers every dollar collected would be used to support those most affected and above all he issued a
