Trump Snubs Canada, Boots Them From "Board of Peace"

Drawing from multiple news sources, President Trump rescinded Canada's invitation to join the U.S.-led "Board of Peace" after Prime Minister Carney voiced concerns about the global order and Ottawa refused to pay the $1 billion membership fee, despite initially indicating willingness to participate. While Trump didn't explicitly state his reasoning, the move comes as EU leaders express reservations about the board's scope, though they remain open to collaboration in Gaza, while the U.S. envisions the board as a conflict resolution organization with Trump wielding significant authority as chairman.
