Matt Gurney: Verwechseln Sie Ankündigungen von Carney und Ford nicht mit Fortschritten

I’ve pointed this out when noting that while Carney has had plenty of handshake deals on international trade, he has had very few (read none) actually formalized and implemented. [LegisInfo](https://www.parl.ca/LegisInfo/en/bills?keywords=trade&advancedview=true&billtype=3) still only lists Bill C-18 as the only trade deal that actually has been brought before the house. C-13 is referring to a an agreement that was started in 2018, under Trudeau.

Another example:

>Last week, Prime Minister Mark Carney announced major plans for Arctic infrastructure. Much of the $35 billion budgeted for them will be used to expand and upgrade existing military facilities; these, in theory, will increase the Canadian Armed Forces’ capacity to respond quickly and in strength to any crisis.

great! Except…

>Much of what Carney said had been said before by Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government, back in 2022. Canada is, after all, a country that struggles to actually do stuff. Making announcements is easier — which turns my attention toward a different order of government.

Oh. So it’s not some new initiative, it’s the same announcement we had 4 years ago.
