Strong words from a guy who surrenders to every emotional whim Trump has.
Speeches are great, but Carney has consistently proven his words mean nothing.

Carney today in Davos:
"What would it mean for middle powers to 'live in truth'? It means naming reality. Stop invoking the 'rules-based international order' as though it still functions as advertised...
"We know the old order is not coming back. We shouldn't mourn it. Nostalgia is not a strategy"

From Carney's Davos speech.
This is one of the things I referred to in this morning's column—I fail to see the "respect for human rights" in all of the so-called "strategic partnerships" he's been signing, and shrugging that off as "pragmatic" just winds up reeking of hypocrisy instead.

"Carney's actions aren't in line with his words" is a sentiment I completely agree with.
When viewed as prioritizing Canada as a nation comprised of people.
When viewed as prioritizing Canada as a nation comprised of corporate interests, the actions make more sense.

The ambassador should be called to the carpet on this. No canadian should set foot in America. This is an escalation.
This post to Truth Social requires an immediate response from the international community and either impeachment or invocation of the 25th amendment by Congress. Republicans, you are sleepwalking the world towards an entirely preventable catastrophe.

Just because a lot of people are cruel, bigoted, and brainwashed doesn’t mean we have to find a “middle ground” with them or a “compromise” that satisfies some of their racist delusions. We just don’t.

Dear Canadians,
Stop buying US made vehicles.
We can cripple their auto industry by simply not buying American-made cars.
Buy the ones made anywhere but the USA.
Our power as consumers is in our money. Don't buy their shit. There are plenty of alternatives out there.

“News organizations” are running the hell out of this story because they see their function not so much to report facts but to enforce social norms like “police officers are automatically deserving of respect to a degree it is newsworthy if someone is mean to one of them.”

The fact that this hasn’t been ratio’d into oblivion says a lot about how much fucking work we still have to do.
Before Trump, law enforcement were trained to behave professionally. At a traffic stop they would start with words such as "Mam, may I see your drivers license and registration."
ICE evidently trains their goons to start a stop with screamed profanity, quickly followed by violence.
