[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Canada has one way out and that's to find new friends.  This fantasy of wanting leverage to continue a nonexistent friendship with the US sounds more like a movie script. Nobody in their right mind who has any self respect and is pragmatic is gonna align with US. With new measures, not sure how many people will be left in the US to export to for a profit! It won't be pretty and it's not ideal, it won't be as economically rewarding but Canada will survive without relying on US.  And I don't think Carney is so unsavvy as to completely break the relationship with US - he did fly here to look like he cares after all - but his idea of seeking other alliances is absolutely correct.

And my money is on him not you.  That guy has demonstrated success in the field of economic strategies.  I'm not sure how much success you've had managing complex organizations and issues?[/quote]

So I guess this is where we differ:  I don’t believe there are friends on the global stage. Just commonly aligned interests. Politicians answer to their respective domestic voters, not to notions of global respect and friendship.  Ask the French how their friendship with the Aussies worked out on the submarine deal….

Sure, Carney is way more professionally successful than me… I guess you are saying that invalidates/diminishes my opinions?    By the same token, Trump has had way more professional success than you…so I guess that invalidates/diminishes your opinions relative to Trump?  Is that how this works? [/quote]

Why don’t you ask King Charles what he thinks of Canada. He is flying over here to open our parliament at the end of the month. You do know he is our official head of state, right?
