  1. I’m very happy with the work this government has put in. When Carney said if America doesn’t want to lead Canada will I didn’t think he was serious. Thought it was a great sound bite, but.. Well here we are and it’s quite clear he was serious. Super proud to be Canadian. Super proud to be respected by everyone, but the USA.

    I maintain the position that in 10-20 years Canada will be carrying a lot more „clout“ globally.

  3. We are nobody’s in the grand scheme of things.  Who are we gonna lead?  The conventions on  how to squeeze the middle class for everything they got to launder over seas is about all our government has been good at.

    The gap between the extent to which Canadians think of ourselves as a great moral authority and the extent to which other countries agree is massive, greater than for any other country. They just don’t think of us at all, and our tiny military doesn’t give us much in the hard power department, either. I’ll give Carney credit for making a belated effort to address our defense underspending but this „middle power“ attitude is a delusion.

    How about address cost of living and housing first for Canadian Citizens first.

    These people are so out of touch. I think a majority of people want a prosperous Canada again.

    It’s ingrained in me as a Canadian to be both effective and humble. Saying our „mission“ is to „lead“ is, frankly, something I expect from a USian, not us.

    Canada should lead by expanding our oil and gas and LNG and natural resources to sell to our allies in the world. Giving them a stable and safe place to buy fuel and resources.

    That’s how Canada leads, by expanding our economy and opening up our ports to sell our goods to our friends.

    Edit*** For those complaining about the environment, increasing production would be like adding on less then a .05 % to what we have which is 1.53% of global emissions, even if we doubled the entire countries emissions to 3%, we would still be less then 6 days of China’s output for emissions.

    Naturally, with 20% of the LNG and nearly 30% of the oil production now frozen from the middle east, the world has funny enough removed more emissions then 10 Canada’s combined.

    So spare me, Canada is an oil producing nation and if we had built more pipelines like we should have we wouldn’t have a debt problem right now, or a deficit problem right now. As oil has hit $100 a barrel twice in 3 years.

    Oil isn’t going away.

    As for the coast. We’re already treading through the water, and most tankers and other ships are already more safe today then they were just a few years ago.

    „But climate change! But, the weather!“ Canada could reduce their emissions to 0 tomorrow and guess what? The forests will still burn in the summer, and we’ll still get hit by storms on our coasts during the rainy seasons.

    Also Asian countries because of the war in the middle east is turning to COAL, now that LNG and Oil is strangled in the east. Canadian LNG and Oil is cleaner and less emissions then COAL of all things.

    Countries need it, and if they don’t get fuel their people will die and starve. Its a moral right for us to expand our resources to sell to them to keep their industries and farming sectors moving.

    „Renewables can help-“

    Third world countries and emerging countries don’t have renewables, and the LNG plant in Qatar that supplied 30% of the worlds Helium supply to make semi conductors and used to make Solar panels was destroyed. Not to mention China is moving their fleet around Taiwan right now, or what you expect china to still sell Solar panels for cheap to us after they invade Taiwan?

  9. Translation: we will probably go back to accepting an unsustainable amount of immigrants and asylum seekers to enslave at minimum wage while using the global unrest as an excuse to take more people in.

    Then after that permanently raise the cost of all consumer goods and groceries while using the Iranian oil situation as an excuse.

    Canada is nothing more than an ambiguously worded statement on the world stage.

  11. The Liberals are getting as crazy as Trump. They actually believe themselves, just like Trump believes his crazy ideas.

    This is what 10 years of support of corrupted and crazy Liberals got us!

  12. Lead!… from behind. Far behind. With out frostbitten soldiers and uninformed defense minister. Our jet setting prime minister who can’t make the one deal we need or build the pipelines that would give us prosperity. Anand is another useless remanent of the last lost decade. Like Carney himself.

    As an overseas Canadian, I know how much the world is waiting to hear what Canada thinks…

    By lead she means dump billions of our money into foreign entities that all have close ties with the PMO and cabinet.
