Professors of English must be working around the clock to catalog and understand all these insane new levels of irony. Board of Peace indeed.
We should stay as far away from this as humanly possible. If anything actually comes of it, which is extremely unlikely once Trump loses interest, it will be more evil.
[This excellent post](https://www.reddit.com/r/OutOfTheLoop/comments/1qjrmb9/comment/o1167hd/) analyzes some of the more jaw-dropping parts of the Charter for the Board of Peace. Spoiler:>! it’s a grift.!<
It’s pretty evident that Carney’s hesitation, amongst other issues, is partially with Donald appointing himself decision maker of the board. It sounds like a club the Little Rascals put together more than a serious political alliance…
>It is governed by its own private charter which only names one person, „Chairman Trump,“ who may adopt resolutions or initiatives on its behalf without consulting the board, and who is a member for life.
And regarding – I assume – PM Carney’s hesitance to commit to such a financial obligation right now, why would Donald be expecting nations would willingly pay the fee when he’s moaned for the last 10 years about them not meeting their Nato spending commitments.
I wouldn’t see the need to rush to get on this for Canada, the “board of peace” is going to be an “infrastructure week” level joke in a few months.
I get the argument that you might be able to influence the policies if you’re „in the room“, but man, the reasons to stay far, far away from this group are piling up fast.
