Fuck Carney.
We don't need Poilievre 2.0, we need leadership.
They guy is doing everything he can to diversify away from the U.S. Yes, he also needs to promote US trade as it is and will continue to be a very significant part of the Canadian economy (look at a map if you want to see why). Canada's economy is in a very precarious position. We need to pull out all the stops to survive. That may include some deals with the U.S., allowing some unfortunate environmental impacts, and less progressive financial policies than we might want. But we have to keep the ship afloat if we want to steer it.
So, when he said that economic integration had become a weakness he was lying? Sorry, but Carney supporters are constantly trying to have it both ways. Just like the man himself.
We either want deeper economic integration with a fascist neighbour that's building concentration camps and committing war crimes on a near daily basis, or we don't.
Carney just spent a month on global trade deals to scare the US into coming to the table. You people are ridiculous, you simply cannot remove your largest trading partner overnight without a full societal collapse.
This is a gross misrepresentation of what I said. The question is about whether we should be further integrating our economies.
