Can someone explain to me
- Why does he think Trump the yaphead would ever shut up about anything ever
- What good are “bilateral talks” with someone that can’t keep their word anyway ?
What is the point here trying to show everyone just how much of a illequipped, stay-the-course, liberal empty suit he is and how he’s going to boldly going to try to “do the same thing we’ve always done except not woke this time and hope it keeps working”
Don’t these people understand that the US is only good at one thing and it’s eating liberal banking stiffs alive ?
Are they trying to lose on purpose ?
You should put your stilted commentary as a comment so we can upvote the article and downvote your ridiculous hot take.
I followed your lead on this and re-submitted it without the pathetic commentary
Yeah what an awful take. The pm says I’m not gonna waste time while he’s making these comments. And op says what an empty lib threat.
Sounds like op wants Canada to join the US
On the contrary I think we should be buying enough top of the line ATGMs to give American tank columns the “ukrainian welcome” when their tanks are stuck in 401 traffic.
I am offended by how bad this Carney guy is playing the liberal “head-in-the-sand” “if we don’t move maybe the predator will go away”
Obviously another excuse to give us absolutely nothing and let smol PP le poilus have his stupid slogans about housing costs while Carney gets tangled, failed in advance fake negociations with the americans.
He thinks just taking down the woke flag and cutting carbon tax is enough, he is sadly mistaken. In fact, I cannot believe any competent political operator could make this mistake. They know very well to bleed us dry and if that means the convervatives meat-heads will be the ones to do it, that’s all right with them too. Either way their stock portfolio will be fine, Canadian or American.
Don’t mistake my criticism of this empty suit as support for any of the other awful, do nothing political parties.

Yeah. Carney may be a vanilla Liberal PM but he’s playing this right. He’s not engaging with Trump on Trump’s terms. He’s telling Trump to shut the fuck up about annexing Canada or there’s no discussion to be had.

There is no going back, there will not be negociations, the americans want to loot us and it’s just a matter of not letting them. There will not be adults in the room and this “be nice Donald and keep your yapper shut until we have talks” is worrying if sincere and insulting if cynical. In either case it exposes this guy as the obvious empty banking mercenary suit that is almost certainly is. This is once again liberal just handing over all the ammunitions to the “bad cop” of this “two party one system” so we can get reamed for 4 years of Donald while they keep their hands clean.
The establishment is making them bet that “now that we’re under attack we’ll rally around the flag and not elect a system-smashing demagogue”. That’s how they WANT to lose.
I think the answer to 1 is that he doesn’t, so it’s just a good excuse to avoid getting pushed into a situation related to 2. In other words, the POV is likely, “there isn’t any point in bilateral talks, but let’s say we’ll do it if he shuts up about that thing that he can’t stop talking about” - it’s just a way to pin the blame for a lack of talks down South.
That’s exactly the kind of hedging their bets centrist bull that will lose them the election. We already know they are insincere and there won’t be negotiations because even an agreement would have no value. Give the Orange douche a bloody nose right now, rather than putting red lines he’s obviously going to cross and that will just make Canada lose face for nothing.
Well Trunp has already wiped his ass with CUSMA, and his word / signature is utterly worthless on international documents. Carney should NOT sit down with fascists liars who can’t not lie. Even if Trunp dials down (which he won’t) he’ll just turn around two seconds later and start up again with the 51st obscenity. I agree with Carney icing him out. Fuck the US.
Yes, it’s time for the americans to enter the Find Out stage

This doesn’t say he does or he doesn’t think Trump can do it. It sets boundaries. This is how you deal with a narcissist. They will resist setting boundaries at all costs, but until they can show good faith by accepting even this very minimal one, we cannot move forward.
-
Obviously no one can trust Trump over the long term. But if he can eat some humble pie and stop making comments about Canadian sovereignty, that does go towards building trust over the short term. And that’s the best you can do with someone like this. We are obliged to deal with Trump and you haven’t presented a better course of action.
There is a multiplicity of options to give Donald a bloody nose and make the american enter the Find Out stage of their fucking around. I’m really disappointed special operations didn’t pull the plug on them during the superb owl!

Carney is doing his due diligence.
painting red lines on the ground that the americans will cross while also laughing at us
And it will expose them as either invaders or people who can’t be trusted, or both. Either way Canada is under no obligation to negotiate because we have an agreement in place (which trump violated) and so were free to keep making deals with other countries while the US owns itself.
The rest of the world alteady knows this, the time for signalling “donald please be reasonnable” is over. Now is the time for the Find Out phase of the american Fucking Around.
