Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney met with US President Donald Trump in the Oval Office, where Carney asserted that Canada is not for sale and never will be, in response to Trump's previous suggestion that Canada could become the US's 51st state. The meeting touched on topics including real estate, trade, and tariffs, with Trump insisting that nothing Carney could say would lift US tariffs on Canadian goods.

The UK is reportedly on the verge of signing a trade deal with the US, according to a report by The New York Times. The development comes after US President Donald Trump announced a briefing on the trade deal. While it is unclear if a finalized deal or a framework for an agreement will be signed, ongoing talks between the two countries aim to ease pressure on UK businesses and consumers. The UK runs a trade deficit with the US and was spared higher 'reciprocal' tariffs but was still hit with a 10% levy.

Australia's Prime Minister Anthony Albanese won re-election on May 3rd, 2025, in a historic victory, marking the first time a leader has won consecutive elections in 21 years. The victory is attributed partly to voters' dislike of Donald Trump's policies and style. The result is seen as a rejection of right-wing politics, similar to Mark Carney's victory in Canada.

The article by Miranda Devine argues that the 'Trump Effect' narrative, which blames Donald Trump for conservative party losses in Canada and Australia, is a convenient excuse for their failures rather than a valid reason. Devine contends that the global strength of populist anti-establishment movements, similar to Trump's, is on the rise, citing examples such as Nigel Farage's success in the UK and Giorgia Meloni's stability in Italy. She criticizes the Australian opposition leader Peter Dutton for running a lackluster campaign and failing to capitalize on Trump's populist appeal, while also highlighting the success of alternative conservative parties in Australia. Devine concludes that the 'Toxic Trump narrative' is not supported by scrutiny and that Democrats should not rely on it to relieve them of reforming their policies or finding electable leaders.

The Trump administration is expected to announce a trade agreement with Britain on Thursday, according to sources familiar with the plans. The deal would be the first since President Trump imposed tariffs on dozens of America's trading partners. Details of the agreement are unclear, but it may involve lowering British tariffs on U.S. cars and farm goods, as well as removing taxes on U.S. technology companies. Trade experts believe the announcement may be an agreement to start negotiations rather than a finalized deal.
