🇨🇦 Carney wants trust without receipts

Mark Carney says Canada will finally hit NATO’s 2 percent target this year, and his Liberals refuse to show the math. Not later, not soon, not at all. Just clap for the press release and move along. Even Ottawa’s own fiscal update is nowhere to be found, as reported. After a decade of Trudeau hollowing out the military, the same crowd now wants credit for a benchmark every serious ally treated as the bare minimum years ago.

This is the Liberal formula in one neat package: grand international posturing, zero transparency at home. Carney, the ultimate Davos banker parachuted into Canadian politics, sells competence like a brand label while hiding the ledger. If the numbers were real, they would release them. Instead we get strategic vagueness dressed up as statesmanship. A government that can count every carbon molecule and micromanage every citizen suddenly cannot produce proof for a multibillion-dollar defence claim. Canada is being governed like a marketing deck, not a sovereign country.
