Speaking to a room of progressive policy experts in Toronto Saturday, Prime Minister Mark Carney offered some insight into what Canada has offered up ahead of an official review of the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) this summer.
What a betrayal, I hope Liberal MPs push for a non-confidence vote.
Unfortunately yes we do. The proximity makes it economically required even considering the untrustworthiness. We desperately need more other integrations too so balance it.
Don’t see the lie here. I’m sure he lies as he is a politician. But the statements about wanting to diversify but also increase our partnerships with the US aren’t contradictory.
It’s not so complicated. We need economic partnerships with the U.S. and we also need economic partnerships with other countries.
The question is very simple. Do we want deeper integration with the US or not?
Unfortunately yes we do. The proximity makes it economically required even considering the untrustworthiness. We desperately need more other integrations too so balance it.
OK so yes, you agree that Carney was lying?
Don’t see the lie here. I’m sure he lies as he is a politician. But the statements about wanting to diversify but also increase our partnerships with the US aren’t contradictory.
I’m not sure that it will make a lick of difference in this conversation to point to Carney’s own words, but here they are:
“You cannot “live within the lie” of mutual benefit through integration when integration becomes the source of your subordination.”
Seems pretty clear what he was saying in Davos, and it’s the complete opposite of what he’s saying now. But whatever, right?
