It calls for honesty about the world as it is.

We are taking the sign out of the window.

We know the old order is not coming back.

We shouldn't mourn it.

Nostalgia is not a strategy.

But we believe that from the fracture we can build something bigger, better, stronger, more just.

This is the task of the middle powers.

The countries that have the most to lose from a world of fortresses and the most to gain from genuine cooperation.

The powerful have their power.

But we have something too.

The capacity to stop pretending.

to name reality, to build our strength at home, and to act together.

That is Canada's path.

We choose it openly and confidently, and it is a path wide open to any country willing to take it with us.

Thank you very much.

First of all, last year you told me that you believed that the reason you won the election is because God put you in this place so that you could save the world.

Looking back one year, do you feel like God is proud of the effort that you've put in?

Watch.

We knew the story of the international rules-based order was partially false.

That the strongest would exempt themselves when convenient.
