Canada hasn't yet been asked to help defend Gulf states from Iran, Carney says | CBC

So he's offering to get Canada involved in advance? (Again, this is would be entirely about complicity in an illegal war to protect authoritarian trade partners.)

Pete Hegseth claims Donald Trump has renamed the map of North America.
Prior to the Ukraine invasion, Putin used the same tactics. He claimed that Ukraine was not an independent nation - just part of greater Russia.

This is so exhausting. We do not live in a binary system, we have a multi-party parliamentary system. It matters a lot whether there are progressives holding balance of power or not. And PP is worse excuses nothing Carney does.

Try this. Whenever Carney heads to a country to push for trade, see how often

1. Brookfield execs were there around the same time.

2. Brookfield or Cameco announce a major new deal after.

3. There are stories from a year or so ago about Brookfield or Cameco seeking big investments there.

I don't think Carney is doing a Brookfield and Friends Profit World Trade Tour to enrich himself. I think it's just all he knows how to do, and he probably truly believes enough in trickle-down economics that making oil companies, Cameco, Brookfield, and others even richer will help Canadians.
