🇨🇦 Carney wants Arctic sovereignty by outsourcing it

Mark Carney is now selling Canadians the idea that defending our Arctic means stitching Canada tighter into a European military-commercial web. A dozen submarines from a German-led partnership tied to Norway, meetings with Emmanuel Macron in Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon, and more chatter about deeper EU alignment — because apparently national defence now means shopping offshore and calling it strategy. Even the latest reported pitch is less about Canada standing on its own feet than Carney finding the right global managers for our backyard.

The real absurdity is watching the same ruling class that spent years hollowing out the military, worshipping post-nationalism, and treating borders as rude suddenly discover the Arctic because Russia exists. Carney talks about high north, low tension while wiring Canada into Brussels-adjacent structures and courting Norway’s sovereign wealth fund like a branch manager begging head office for capital. That is not sovereignty. That is a banker prime minister turning continental defence into another international consortium, with Canadians expected to clap while our independence gets subcontracted.
