Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has rejected President Donald Trump’s assertion that «Canada lives because of the United States.»
«Canada and the United States have built a remarkable partnership in the economy, in security, and in a rich cultural exchange,» Carney said on Thursday while speaking in Plains of Abraham, Québec, during a cabinet retreat.
«But Canada doesn’t ‘live because of the United States’,» he said, referencing Trump’s remark. «Canada thrives because we are Canadian. We are masters in our own house. This is our country. This is our future. The choice is ours.»
In response to Fox News Digital’s request for comment, the White House pointed to Trump’s Truth Social post.

On Thursday, Trump published an open letter to Carney informing him that Canada’s invitation to join the Board of Peace — a U.S.-led council tasked with managing Gaza’s post-war future — had been rescinded.
«Please let this Letter serve to represent that the Board of Peace is withdrawing its invitation to you regarding Canada’s joining, what will be, the most prestigious Board of Leaders ever assembled, at any time. Thank you for your attention to this matter!» Trump wrote on Truth Social.
The board was inaugurated in Davos, Switzerland, on Thursday, though Carney had already left, according to The Associated Press.
Tensions between Carney and Trump flared as world leaders met in Davos for the annual World Economic Forum. Both Trump and Carney took swipes at each other in their respective speeches.

US TRADE REP SHRUGS OFF WORLD LEADERS’ SWIPES AT TRUMP AMID DAVOS BACKLASH
During his address on Tuesday, Carney did not mention Trump by name, but rather he said that «rules-based order is fading,» referencing the U.S.
He admitted that there were benefits to US. leadership on the world stage, but painted the entire concept of a rules-based international order as a falsity that is actively failing. Additionally, in his address, Carney urged middle powers, like Canada, to assert themselves and take the opportunity to «build a new order that embodies our values.»

When delivering his address on Wednesday, Trump did not shy away from taking aim at Carney. He said that Canada «should be grateful» because the country gets «a lot of freebies» from the U.S., though he did not say what he was referring to.
«I watched your prime minister yesterday, he wasn’t so grateful,» Trump said. «Canada lives because of the United States. Remember that, Mark, the next time you make your statements.»

Un tiroteo en un estadio de fútbol en México dejó 11 muertos y al menos 12 heridos

Hombres armados abrieron fuego el domingo en un campo de fútbol abarrotado de gente en México, y mataron a 11 personas e hirieron a otras 12, en un ataque que pareció poner de relieve la persistente violencia de los cárteles en el país, a pesar de los esfuerzos del gobierno.
Según las autoridades locales, los disparos alcanzaron a quienes estaban socializando después de un partido de fútbol, culminando un periodo especialmente violento en Salamanca, ciudad de 275.000 habitantes situada en el estado de Guanajuato, al centro del país.

Otro episodio dejó cinco muertos en Salamanca el sábado, y una semana antes las autoridades desactivaron un artefacto explosivo en las inmediaciones de una refinería de la empresa gubernamental Petróleos Mexicanos en la ciudad.
“Estamos pasando por un momento grave, una grave descomposición social”, dijo César Prieto, alcalde de Salamanca, en un discurso grabado en video el domingo por la noche. “Lamentablemente, hay grupos criminales tratando de someter a la autoridad, cosa que no van a lograr”.

Guanajuato registró el mayor número de asesinatos de México el año pasado, con 2035 homicidios dolosos. Esa violencia ha sido impulsada en gran medida por una guerra territorial entre un cártel local y el Cártel Jalisco Nueva Generación, el grupo criminal más poderoso de México.
Salamanca, en concreto, se encuentra cerca de una frontera que separa los territorios controlados por cada grupo, y también alberga una importante refinería de petróleo. Ambos cárteles quieren controlar Salamanca para impulsar sus negocios de narcotráfico y robo de combustible. Las autoridades locales dijeron que estaban investigando el tiroteo del domingo, y también si alguno de los dos cárteles estaba implicado.
La presidenta de México, Claudia Sheinbaum, que ha defendido los resultados de su estrategia de seguridad, dijo a los periodistas el lunes que su gobierno estaba en contacto cercano con las autoridades de Guanajuato “para poder dar con los responsables”.

En un comunicado, la gobernadora de Guanajuato, Libia Dennise García, calificó el ataque de “hecho inaceptable” y dijo que las fuerzas estatales y federales estaban reforzando la seguridad.
El tiroteo masivo es un acontecimiento especialmente inoportuno para el gobierno mexicano, que ha estado llevando a cabo una agresiva campaña contra los cárteles de la droga en un esfuerzo por demostrar a la Casa Blanca que se toma en serio la erradicación del flujo de drogas hacia Estados Unidos.
El presidente Donald Trump lleva meses amenazando con emprender ataques terrestres contra los cárteles en México, afirmando que estos grupos dirigen el país. Sheinbaum ha dicho en repetidas ocasiones que un ataque unilateral sería una violación de la soberanía mexicana.
Recientemente, las amenazas más específicas de Trump, así como la captura del presidente Nicolás Maduro de Venezuela a manos de Estados Unidos, han aumentado los temores entre los funcionarios mexicanos de que México podría estar en el punto de mira a continuación. El gobierno de Trump también ha estado presionando a las autoridades mexicanas para que permitan la presencia de fuerzas estadounidenses en México.
En respuesta, México se ha mostrado dispuesto a golpear con más dureza a los cárteles, con la esperanza de evitar cualquier acción estadounidense. En los últimos días, México anunció la captura de varios delincuentes muy buscados, entre ellos un exatleta olímpico canadiense que se había convertido en un prolífico traficante de cocaína. México también trasladó la semana pasada a 37 delincuentes acusados a Estados Unidos.

Los esfuerzos del gobierno han contribuido a reducir el número de homicidios en más de un 20 por ciento en México en comparación con el año anterior, según el gobierno de Sheinbaum. Las autoridades han centrado gran parte de su potencia de fuego en el Cártel de Sinaloa, una conocida organización delictiva asentada en el oeste del país, y han conseguido debilitar significativamente al grupo. Pero los expertos en seguridad han dicho que, al mismo tiempo, el cártel de Jalisco ha reforzado su control sobre otras partes del país.
Eso incluye Guanajuato. Los homicidios en el estado descendieron durante la segunda mitad del año pasado, pero la lucha entre el cártel de Jalisco y el cártel de Santa Rosa de Lima, un grupo local, ha hecho que continúen las matanzas.

El campo de fútbol donde se produjo el tiroteo el domingo es un punto de reunión popular en la comunidad, y los partidos atraen a grandes multitudes cada fin de semana, dijo Orlando Arredondo Gallardo, portavoz del gobierno de Salamanca. “Van niños, hay puestos de comida”, dijo. “Toda la gente asiste y más los días domingos, que es cuando es más familiar”.
Entre las 12 personas heridas en el tiroteo había una mujer y un niño.

Senate Democrats threaten shutdown by blocking DHS funding after Minnesota ICE shooting

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Anger over a deadly Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)-related shooting in Minnesota has pushed Senate Democrats to threaten a cutoff of Homeland Security funding and a possible shutdown.
In just a few short days, Democrats have rapidly coalesced behind their strategy to block funding for the agency as the deadline to fund the government hurtles closer.
Democrats in the upper chamber were already leery of supporting the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spending bill, which funds ICE, but had come to a fragile truce with Senate Republicans in concocting several built-in restrictions on the agency and usage of ICE over months of negotiations.
SENATE DEMS REVOLT AGAINST DHS FUNDING BILL AMID MINNEAPOLIS CHAOS, HIKING GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN RISK

But the fatal shooting of 37-year-old Alex Pretti during an immigration enforcement operation over the weekend in Minneapolis destroyed that tepid support. That incident rapidly mobilized Senate Democrats to decry and reject the DHS bill.
Schumer said in a statement that Senate Democrats would not allow the current version of the DHS bill to advance, and argued that Senate Republicans «have seen the same horrific footage that all Americans have watched of the blatant abuses of Americans by ICE in Minnesota.»
«The appalling murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti on the streets of Minneapolis must lead Republicans to join Democrats in overhauling ICE and [Customs and Border Protection] to protect the public,» Schumer said. «People should be safe from abuse by their own government.»
KEY SENATOR WON’T FUND DHS AS ICE, FEDERAL AGENTS ENTER HIS STATE

«Senate Republicans must work with Democrats to advance the other five funding bills while we work to rewrite the DHS bill,» he continued. «This is the best course of action, and the American people are on our side.»
Senate Democrats held a private, caucus-wide call on the matter on Sunday. A source familiar with the call told Fox News Digital that Schumer’s plan to reject any DHS bill without several reforms, but that the broader, five-bill funding package could move ahead. Lawmakers could vote on the package as early as Thursday.
«Basically, DHS is the problem and should be split from the package,» they said.
But Senate Republicans aren’t willing to cave to Democrats’ demands, especially given how high a priority funding the agency is for the administration and how fast the Friday deadline to fund the government is approaching.
SENATE DEMOCRATS REBEL AGAINST THEIR OWN LEADERSHIP OVER DHS FUNDING PACKAGE, INCREASING SHUTDOWN ODDS

Democrats’ position creates several procedural headaches beyond their desire to, for now, shut off funding to DHS. Any modification to the package would require approval from the House, which is not in town until early next month.
And House Republican leadership has no desire to return to Washington, D.C., in the interim, leaving the onus on Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., and his leadership team to carve out a solution to the growing funding problem.
While some Senate Republicans are demanding a thorough investigation of the shooting of Pretti, none have gone so far as to demand that DHS funding be withheld.

GOP leaders aren’t willing to cut the bill out of the package just to give Democrats what they want, especially after the current Homeland Security bill was negotiated on a bipartisan basis.
A Senate Republican aide told Fox News Digital that Republicans were «determined to not have another government shutdown.»
«We will move forward as planned and hope Democrats can find a path forward to join us,» they said.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that a long-anticipated document on U.S. security guarantees is «100% ready» for signing, with Kyiv now waiting for its American partners to confirm the date and place before the agreement moves to ratification in both the U.S. Congress and the Ukrainian parliament.
«For us, security guarantees are first and foremost guarantees of security from the United States. The document is 100% ready,» Zelenskyy said Sunday at a joint press conference in Vilnius, Lithuania, with the presidents of Lithuania and Poland, according to a translation of his remarks from Reuters.
Zelenskyy reiterated at the press conference that Ukraine views membership in the European Union as another core security guarantee and is aiming to join the bloc by 2027, the Ukrainian president’s office said in a statement on its website.
His remarks come after Ukraine, Russia and the United States held trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi for two days over the weekend.
