Carney’s new love-in with EU has everything to do with Trump

“Wouldn’t it be lovely if Canada was the 28th state of the European Union rather than the 51st state of the United States?” asked Finland’s President Alexander Stubb this summer.

The question was rather tongue-in-cheek. US President Donald Trump, who is currently locked in an escalating tariff tussle with Ottawa, has, on a number of occasions, declared his ambition to make Canada the 51st American state – causing deep offence amongst many Canadians.

CANADA HAS BEEN INVITED TO BE AN ASSOCIATE MEMBER OF THE EU!

Canada’s Corporate Welfare Subsidies: A $50 Billion Web of Public Support

Corporate subsidies in Canada extend far beyond the headline-grabbing debates, with federal, provincial, and municipal governments collectively directing tens of billions of dollars to businesses annually.

While some measures—such as support for media organizations or tax provisions for the oil and gas sector—draw high-profile ideological debate, much of the assistance takes less visible forms, including loans, loan guarantees, grants, tax credits, bailouts, and specialized financing arrangements that are harder to track.

Michael Higgins: Is Mark Carney using Canada to make up for Brexit?

Mark Carney’s admiration for the European Union is so deep that he was accused of aiding and abetting Project Fear, the campaign to stop the U.K. exiting the massive economic bloc.

As governor of the Bank of England, he failed to stop Brexit but as prime minister his Project Fear II against the U.S. has been far more successful and far more galvanizing. If Wall Street Journal is to be believed, Carney is now trying to integrate Canada into the European Union, a move that would surely entail a loss of sovereignty and independence far greater than anything we could surrender to America. The prime minister suggested on Sunday that the Journal’s reporting overstated what the government is seeking.

I think Carney is using the EU as a backdoor for China.

Mark Carney is better off allying with America than Europe

Trade talks between Canada and the United States have stalled once again, and this time Prime Minister Mark Carney isn’t waiting around for President Donald Trump to make a deal. Before his scheduled address to the European Parliament in Strasbourg later this week, Carney has floated the idea of making Canada an “associate member” of the European Union to help deepen strategic and economic ties with the bloc. Ever since he secured his majority government last year, Carney’s Liberals have been pursuing a diversification policy away from trade reliance on the US toward Europe, China, India and ASEAN countries.

PINDER: Tiered citizenship and empty milk cartons — the high cost of the Laurentian Elite

Former prime minister Jean Chrétien proudly affirmed recently, in the context of trade issues, that Canadians do not bow to anyone — so true, Monsieur. But au contraire, you support Canadians who bow to the Laurentian Elite (LE). Quebec is a charter LE member, as its interests prevail, regardless of the Constitution and those of other provinces.

Tories warn Carney against importing EU ‘migrant crisis’

OTTAWA — Conservatives are demanding Prime Minister Mark Carney explain what “enhanced labour mobility” with the European Union could mean for Canada, warning any new agreement should not open the door to Europe’s migration policies.

Conservative immigration critic Michelle Rempel Garner issued the warning Monday after Carney confirmed his government wants to pursue a deeper relationship with the 27-member bloc.

We already have our own migrant crisis. Labor mobility means dumping the EU’s migrants on Canada.

Carney told Bloomberg he’s not seeking EU membership—just a “unique alliance.” Then he listed deeper defence procurement (SAFE), AI, compute, minerals, energy, research, and “elements of enhanced labour mobility,” while admitting the EU’s four freedoms come as a package

How worried should Canada be about Trump’s U.S.-Venezuela oil deal?

U.S. President Donald Trump announced what he called “the biggest oil deal in world history” with Venezuela on Aug. 28. Two days later, on Truth Social, he posted that “Trump’s historic oil deal with Venezuela realigns global energy and puts OPEC, Canada on notice.”

What does Venezuelan oil have to do with Canada, and should we be worried? The short answer is maybe; a little bit. The long answer is below.

Zelenskyy’s comparison of Canada to Ukraine is imperfect — but it matters

There was something extraordinarily refreshing about listening to Volodymyr Zelenskyy say the quiet part out loud.

Asked to comment on the deteriorating relationship between Canada and the United States, the Ukrainian president described it as “strange” and “very dangerous” before drawing — arguably — an imperfect comparison with his country and Russia.

Both countries are run by anti-democratic grifters to start with.

There are costs for Mark Carney’s closer ties with Europe

Prime Minister Mark Carney’s cozying up to the European Union has been cast as a bid to control Canada’s destiny in a rapidly changing world.

But several countries that already have close ties to the EU have cited the desire for control and sovereignty as a reason to ultimately reject deeper integration or full-fledged membership in the 27-country bloc.

Most recently, in late August, voters in Iceland rejected a referendum question about restarting talks to formally join the EU.

Carney invited ChiCom Pals To “Investor Summit”

Several Chinese state-backed investors are taking part in Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Canada Investment Summit, another sign of warming relations with Beijing after years of Ottawa publicly spurning money from China.

The Prime Minister’s Office said Monday that, like everyone else, Chinese investors will be subject to federal rules governing foreign investment in this country.

Both China International Capital Corp. (CICC) and China Investment Corp. − China’s sovereign wealth fund − are attending Mr. Carney’s summit. CICC is roughly 40-per-cent owned by Central Huijin Investment, a subsidiary of China Investment Corp.

Peter Menzies: Ottawa’s Quiet Embrace of the Chinese Regime Is Alarming

The most alarming aspect of Canada’s strategic partnership with China is how sneaky it has become.

It was considered a great coup in January when, as part of his circumnavigation of the globe culminating in his now famous Davos speech, Prime Minister Mark Carney travelled to Beijing to announce a “new strategic partnership” with Chinese leader Xi’s regime.

Ben Woodfinden: The EU is an economic disaster. What exactly is Mark Carney after?

This Thursday, Prime Minister Mark Carney is due to address the opening of the European Parliament in Strasbourg. Guest addresses like this aren’t unheard of, but they have mostly been reserved in recent years for civil society figures focused on Ukraine, which was already a signal that something significant was to be announced, and reporting has suggested that some sort of new relationship between Canada and the European Union was in the cards.

Carney says government to open up Canada’s 4 largest airports to private investment

Prime Minister Mark Carney says his government will open up Canada’s four largest airports to private investment, but that Ottawa will maintain ultimate ownership.

The prime minister said the private money will be sought through “long-term concessions” to operate these airports, which would include Toronto Pearson International Airport, Vancouver International Airport, Trudeau International Airport in Montreal and Calgary International Airport.

European Parliament to open Ottawa office as Carney seeks ‘unique alliance’ with EU

The European Parliament, a key institution of the European Union, is set to open an “antenna” office in Canada’s national capital as Prime Minister Mark Carney looks to deepen ties with the 27-member bloc.

“Europe and Canada share values, interests and a commitment to the same rules-based international order. Our new presence in Ottawa will turn that partnership into even closer parliamentary co-operation,” Roberta Metsola, president of the European Parliament, said in a news release on Monday.

Ottawa would be the 10th city where such an office is located, according to the news release, and the third in North America after New York and Washington.

I don’t want to share anything with the EU.

Adam Pankratz: Mark Carney’s elitist quest to turn us into Europeans

This weekend, the Wall Street Journal reported that Prime Minister Mark Carney is pushing for associate membership with the European Union in an effort to diversify Canada away from the United States. Though, on Sunday evening Carney downplayed the story, and said he is seeking a “unique alliance” with the EU. It’s a convenient dodge in any case as both terms are undefined in any legal sense and Canadians deserve to know what the Prime Minister is actually up to.
