So over the past ten years, while Justin Trudeau’s Liberals were arguably destroying Canada’s national interests and economy through bad investment, social-welfare, and immigration decisions, a lack of strategic military foresight, and letting hostile states run wild while CSIS warned of existential sovereignty concerns — if we take the WSJ scoops from senior sources as representative of Carney’s philosophy — then in that same decade of Carney’s international banking and economic and corporate governance, while most average Canadians still saw the U.S. economy and society as a friend of Canada and a close ally, Carney was already arguing that Canada was too reliant on the United States and would need deeper engagements with the powers and financial systems of Europe (and China, per speeches the WSJ did not cover). None of this was explained in the Carney campaign. Canadians voted for it anyway. He was going to fix the “Trump issues,” and if the polls are to be believed — even while he is moving backwards on that file — they still hold him in very high regard, while now seeing the United States with about the same level of positivity as China. This all feels wrong. Firstly, what happens if Russia extends its aggression to more European states? Is Carney going to vibe Canada into a European military power while running an economic war with the NORAD partner?​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Canada needs to be concerned first with our north and getting aligned with our NORAD partner, and the dual threat of China and Russia.
