After Elon Musk called on Quebec to separate, Carney and Poilievre dismiss ex-Trump advisor Oct 13, 2026

Description

Canadians will decide the future of Canada, not “large tech firms that think they can tell us what to do,” Prime Minister Mark Carney said on Thursday, responding to Elon Musk’s comments that three Canadian provinces “should separate” from Canada.

“The future of Canada will be decided by Canadians, and the priorities of Canadians, the priorities of the people of Quebec,” Carney told reporters in Sherbrooke, Que., on Thursday.

On Friday, Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre also weighed-in on Musk’s comments, calling them “silly tweets by people who have no power over what Canadians do.”

Musk, a former adviser to U.S. President Donald Trump, said on his social media platform X that Quebec should separate, as should Alberta and Saskatchewan.
