What powerful message did Canada PM Mark Carney convey about Trump?
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is not messing around. He just gave an incredibly powerful speech where he blasted Donald Trump and he talked about how Canada and Europe will lead the way forward as America first actually means America alone. You also had Pete Buttigieg, former President Barack Obama and numerous other pro-democracy leaders in America. in Canada having Prime Minister Carney's back. Let me show you what went down. First, Prime Minister Carney posted the following, Canada and Europe are united in our values of pluralism, the rule of law and democracy. On Europe Day, We're building on that foundation to forge new strategic partnerships, deepen our trade, and stand steadfast with Ukraine.
In a more uncertain world, Canada and Europe are creating greater certainty, security, and prosperity on both sides of the Atlantic. In other words, bye-bye U.S. Canada now views itself as European. Prime Minister Carney also said, for a better and more just future, we must name plainly what is broken, say how we will replace it, and do the hard work of building. That's what we focused on at the Global Progress Action Summit in Toronto. And Prime Minister Carney keynoted that with a vengeance when it came to calling out Donald Trump. First, you had former President Obama meet with Prime Minister Carney. The symbolism of these two powerful, intelligent people representing democracy side by side sent a clear message to the world.
At the same time, people were rejoicing in Budapest as Peter Magyar became the Prime Minister. of Hungary and as Hungary cast away their authoritarian dictatorial Orban regime. Whereas you also had Putin with that disgusting parade that he had, low energy, low T Putin's parade. We saw democracies on the rise yesterday. And then Prime Minister Carney gave an incredible speech where he said, those who seek policies or politics to destroy, demolish or dismantle, they're not going to change. We can't pretend that this rupture will just go away if we are more timid versions of them, if we are Trump-lite, what we need to do is we need to unite and stand up powerfully against these authoritarians. Watch what Prime Minister Carney said.
Let's play this clip.
I'll tell you something you know. I've probably told you everything I've said you know. You know, those whose politics is to destroy, to demolish, dismantle, they're not gonna change their instincts. This is many respects, this is their moment, right? We can't match them by being timid imitations of them. We can't answer them by pining for an old order that's not gonna return. And the loss of control that people feel that feeds our age of anxiety, it can only be answered, only be answered by positive action, by building that which comes next. Through the crack in the bell, as Leonard Cohen said, through the rupture that the light gets in. In this more uncertain world, building for all, actual building, concrete, steel, and code is the new progressive politics.
How is Canada positioning itself in relation to the United States?
And our message, our message to Canadians right from the start has been reflecting back what we've heard. It's a more dangerous world. We have to take care of ourselves. And as Canadians, we will always take care of each other. Building a country that's not just strong, but it's good. Not just prosperous, but fair. Not just for some most of the time, but for all Canadians all of the time.
Prime Minister Carney then talked about how the U.S. has changed dramatically. And if that's what they want to do, that's their prerogative. But here in Canada, here with our alliances in Canada, we are going to tread a new path, a path that is not dependent on the United States. Far from it. This is an elbows up path. Let's watch what Carney said. Let's play it.
We need to build new trade relationships in order to move from reliance to resilience. And it's truth that Canada has long benefited and we are very grateful. We have long benefited, we did say thank you, thank you. Long benefited from our proximity to the world's largest and the world's most dynamic economy.
