I don’t quite understand, Scotland and Wales already aren’t part of the common market. By seceding from the UK, they might actually have an easier time joining the common market and strengthening the EU, which is the real unified power block.

10·10 days agoI’m not an authority by any means, but checking the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s “94 Calls to Action” might be a good place to start.
I’m a teacher, so I have a lot I can personally do in this regard, but other professions might be different.
It’s interesting to me that his team titled the video “Forward Guidance,” because it’s the same phrasing central banks use. Central banks tend to put out forward guidance on rate policy every quarter in a similar way. Carney is very much a central banker, even now as PM.

Okay, I can, it’s marketing and ease of access. I guess it just annoys me that people don’t care.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Opinion: Dictators are pleased to watch Canada and the U.S. slug it outEnglish
32·24 days agoI think it’s worth clarifying that this comes alongside countries with a weak 4th estate. One of the notable connections between countries that are more critical of their own democracy, is actually having a stronger independent 4th estate to keep that democracy accountable.
That is, it makes sense Russian people would also have very high approval of their government and believe it’s democratic, which by Pravda (best source we have) they do. I don’t think this reflects reality, rather it reflects a powerful state apparatus that pushes for social harmony over information freedom. It’s easy to be less critical when your only news source can’t mention Tiananmen Square for example.

7·24 days agoTo be fair, one of the big trade issues the US is mad about in the auto industry is Canada allowing Chinese EVs into their market. I feel like Canada is fighting for EVs (less so now with Carney), we just have a giant thorn stabbing us in the side.

18·24 days agoWhat are we supposed to do, not defend ourselves? China isn’t making annexation threats against Canada. They’re terrible on human rights records, but they’re less overtly dangerous to Canada than the U.S. is with sharing a border. I can’t see any future where China tries to annex Canada.

2·27 days agoThey tend to get within 1-2% of the actual vote on election day, so I wouldn’t say pointless. They can certainly miss a tight issue, but trend lines are meaningful too.
