多伦多讯（记者罗布·吉利斯报道）加拿大总理马克·卡尼周五表示，美国指控加拿大政客干涉下个月美国中期选举的说法“毫无根据”，并对华盛顿大使的指控表示失望。
ROB GILLIES TORONTO — Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said Friday there is “no merit” to U.S. allegations that Canadian politicians are interfering in next month’s U.S. midterm elections, expressing disappointment with Washington’s ambassador over the accusations.
卡尼在土耳其伊斯坦布尔接受记者采访时表示，他拒绝了美国驻加拿大大使馆周三发布的一份事实清单，该清单指控加拿大政客试图影响美国政治。
Speaking to reporters in Istanbul, Turkey, Carney rejected a fact sheet issued Wednesday by the U.S. Embassy in Canada accusing Canadian politicians of seeking to influence American politics.
美国大使馆表示：“加拿大政府对美国选举可能存在干涉的担忧置之不理，即使其部长和省长在官方文件和公开场合公开描述影响美国政治的计划。”
“The Canadian government brushes off concerns about potential interference in U.S. elections, even as its ministers and premiers openly describe plans to influence American politics in official documents and public appearances,” the embassy said.
卡尼表示，加拿大外交官谨慎避免甚至干涉选举的表象，并对美国大使皮特·霍克斯特拉表示失望。
Carney said Canadian diplomats were careful to avoid even the appearance of election interference and expressed disappointment with U.S. Ambassador Pete Hoekstra.
“这些说法毫无根据，”卡尼说。“我对他们的特使将此视为自己的职责、提出这些建议感到失望。”大使馆特别点名了工业部长梅兰妮·乔利，因为她讨论了针对共和党州的报复性关税，以及安大略省省长道格·福特，因为他播放了一则前总统罗纳德·里根批评关税的美国广告。特朗普在该广告于2025年10月世界大赛期间播出后，取消了与加拿大的贸易谈判。
“There is no merit to these claims,” Carney said. “I’m disappointed that their envoy sees that as his role, to make these suggestions.”The embassy singled out Industry Minister Mélanie Joly for discussing retaliatory tariffs targeting Republican states, and Ontario Premier Doug Ford for airing a U.S. featuring former President Ronald Reagan criticizing tariffs. Trump canceled trade talks with Canada after the ad aired during the World Series in October 2025. The embassy also cited 11 Canadians charged with illegally voting in U.S. elections between 2012 and 2026, without linking the cases to Canada’s government.
大使馆还引用了11名加拿大人在2012年至2026年间非法投票于美国选举的指控，但未将这些案件与加拿大政府联系起来。特朗普针对这些指控，美国国务院对美联社表示：“大使馆的情况说明书不言自明。” 麦吉尔大学政治学家丹尼尔·贝朗德驳回了大使馆所列举的所谓外国干涉证据，称加拿大可能显著影响美国中期选举结果的说法荒谬。他警告称，这些指控可能为共和党若失去席位而责怪加拿大奠定基础。
The Trump administration has made investigating noncitizen voting a priority, although election experts say such cases are rare. Asked about the allegations, the State Department told The Associated Press: “The embassy fact sheet speaks for itself.”McGill University political scientist Daniel Béland dismissed the embassy’s examples as evidence of foreign interference, saying the suggestion that Canada could significantly influence the U.S. midterm results was absurd. He warned that the allegations could lay the groundwork for blaming Canada if Republicans lose seats.
霍克斯特拉是特朗普的盟友、密歇根州前共和党众议员，最近警告加拿大政客要把“鼻子”伸出美国政治，称华盛顿正在监控他们的活动，并将对干涉作出回应。
Hoekstra, a Trump ally and former Republican congressman from Michigan, recently warned Canadian politicians to keep their “nose out” of American politics, saying Washington was monitoring their activities and would respond to interference.
超过28万人签署了一份议会请愿书，要求将其撤职，指责他将特朗普吞并加拿大的威胁常态化。
More than 280,000 people have signed a parliamentary petition seeking his removal, accusing him of normalizing Trump’s threats to annex Canada.
特朗普贸易顾问彼得·纳瓦罗上个月也警告加拿大不要干涉中期选举。
Trump trade adviser Peter Navarro also warned Canada last month against interfering in the midterms.
“那套把戏玩完了，如果你们干涉我们在缅因州或密歇根州的选举，你们将付出更惨痛的代价，”纳瓦罗说。
“That game is up and if you interfere in our elections in Maine or Michigan, you will pay even more dearly,” Navarro said.
卡尼暗示，美国高级官员本身曾试图影响加拿大政治。特朗普曾多次威胁要让加拿大成为美国第51个州。
Carney suggested senior U.S. officials had themselves sought to influence Canadian politics. Trump has repeatedly threatened to make Canada the 51st U.S. state .
今年1月，美国财政部长斯科特·贝森特称，阿尔伯塔省——那里有一个寻求独立的分离主义运动——是美国的“天然伙伴”。
In January, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent called Alberta, where a separatist movement has sought independence, a “natural partner” for the United States.
当被问及加拿大是否可能因共和党在中期选举中失利而受到指责并面临额外关税时，卡尼表示他不这么预期。
Asked whether Canada could be blamed for Republican losses in the midterms and face additional tariffs, Carney said he did not expect that.
“美国征收关税的理由非常广泛，几乎形成了一个制造理由的产业，”他说。
“There have been a very broad range of justifications for U.S. tariffs, and there’s almost an industry to create justifications for them,” he said.
卡尼表示，如果华盛顿愿意诚意谈判，加拿大已准备好立即恢复贸易谈判，但如有必要，将等待数月甚至等到下一届美国政府上台，以达成可接受的协议。
Carney said Canada was ready to resume trade negotiations immediately if Washington was willing to negotiate in good faith, but would wait months or even until another U.S. administration if necessary to reach an acceptable agreement.
被问及协议能否在11月3日中期选举前达成，卡尼表示：“这取决于美国。他们有点难以预测。”“我们不会因为美国在举行选举就放下手中的工作，”他说。
Asked whether a deal could be reached before the Nov. 3 midterms, Carney said, “It’s up to the United States. They’re a little hard to predict.”“We don’t down tools because the United States is having elections,” he said.
卡尼还说，特朗普对加拿大的主权毫无幻想。“加拿大永远不会成为第51个州，”他说。“我们将走自己的路。”
Carney also said Trump was under no illusion about Canada’s sovereignty. “Canada will never be the 51st state,” he said. “We are going our own way.”
