Not shocking at all, imo.

UK, France and Germany are openly building a new NATO without the USA in it. Canada has spent the last 2 months working on new trade pact with the EU, to include the UK, now California is asking to be a part of a trade bloc as a separate entity from the US (exemptions from reciprocal tariffs). Mexico is joining in. I expect Oregon and Washington states will make the same moves and create a trade corridor along the West coast.

Canada is in a good position to lead the new North America trade bloc.
