Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said the world can make progress on a range of issues without the US, and that consensus reached at a Group of 20 (G-20) leaders’ meeting in Johannesburg

At the press conference, he detailed his attempts to strengthen ties with nations ranging from South Africa to India and China.

    Carney is an Obama-esque a-hole who says really nice things but, in fact, is going to drive many more Canadians into poverty. (As one would expect from an international banker-turned-politician.)

    But he’s not wrong, and what sucks is Americans really don’t know how trade deals work, so in a year-ish when all the post-tariff trade deals go in, and the supply chain has rerouted itself around the US, we’re all going to be poorer for it except for the handful of billionaires who profited handsomely off the economic chaos.

      Someone else would have been better, but Carney is the best Canada can manage with its dogshit voting system. At least he’s a servant of the state and not corrupt dictator wannabe like Trump. (Increasingly not wannabe)
