🇨🇦 Carney torches trade talks, then calls it sovereignty

Twenty minutes before midnight, Mark Carney blew up Canada-U.S. trade talks and pretended this was a masterclass in resolve. Translation: Ottawa walked into deadline politics with no leverage, then discovered the Americans were serious about 50 percent tariffs on $29 billion in Canadian goods. Carney now promises matching retaliation, because when your economy is already limping from Trudeau-era sabotage, the obvious fix is a tariff war with your largest customer, as reported.

The funniest part is the chest-thumping about defending Canadians while the same political class spent years gutting productivity, bloating government, importing cheap labour to suppress wages, and outsourcing real economic strategy to boardroom globalists. Doug Ford cheering tariff for tariff is just more provincial cosplay. A sovereign country protects its industrial base before a crisis, not after Washington sets the terms. Carney inherited a weakened Canada, yes, but this is what managerial liberalism always delivers: dependence dressed up as dignity.
