Canada was 'walking away from a bad deal,' Prime Minister Carney said in a statement, vowing 'dollar-for-dollar' tariffs in response to U.S. President Donald Trump’s levies.
I read the speech. It is essentially trying to pretend this is all something new. It is not. It contains zero self reflection and instead strokes the same bullshit sovereignty and nationalism that has lead us here. Essentially it is a speech that ignores Canada’s part in the war on terror, participation in the MIC, and turning blind eye to human rights abuses.
He lays it out for his capitalist colleagues. They have lowered taxes and it is time to capitalize while they still can. It is just another version of having your cake and eating it to. If this is what leadership looks like then that is why the wealthy are getting richer and richer in Canada.
I do agree with a lot of what he said, but ultimately it just feels like a cop out over the most recent pissing match between wealthy elements in the US and Canada.
