I’ll join you in that chant when I’m convinced it’s not a gross oversimplification that ignores developments not covered in the media.

As much as I’d rather socialist domestic policies, I acknowledge that in realpolitik terms we don’t exist in a void or have the luxury of ignoring the influence of neo-fascists like the USA.

Maybe he’ll get shot and killed?

Y’know you keep giving them handouts, they’ll keep coming back.

If Carney fucks us, I’m going to be rightly fucking pissed.

If this is a meeting for discovery, OK. If this is a meeting to engage them more, fuck off.

This closed door meeting better have some public relay once it’s over a good solid cabinet member can leak the details.

This does not sit well with me.

its clearly a big brain ambush move and they’ll take him as ransom

Know your enemy.

Canada needs to keep negotiations with the USA open

I don’t want that.

The 4 principles of their ideology contradict each other and it threatens blood if the left doesn’t allow it. Jesus Christ.

So according to them, being logical make me “the left” and they’re going to stab me. Oh boy.

The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) said Roberts is speaking to cabinet about trade issues because he knows the Trump administration’s playbook.

He knows that playbook because he was in the room when it was written.

I hope this meeting is not what it looks like on the surface.

There is no part of the heritage foundation agenda that I want to have any influence in Canada.

Theil is behind project 2025 and is the child rapist trumps puppeteer. There is no reason in the universe to invite that vile scum. If he does I am writing Carney off 100%.

Fuck.

Edit typo

Reminds me of that satire post Larry David did when Bill Mahar thought it was a good idea to have dinner with Trump

If this is a meeting for discovery, OK.

Ostensibly, that’s why:

The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) said Roberts is speaking to cabinet about trade issues because he knows the Trump administration’s playbook.

Roberts’s book Dawn’s Early Light: Taking Back Washington to Save America includes a foreword written by U.S. Vice-President JD Vance

The PMO added it would be beneficial for cabinet to hear Roberts’s perspective and understand the White House’s priorities as the government prepares for the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) review next year.

Can you elaborate on the “authorize” portion? This is all that’s in the article regarding why the person is speaking at the event.

Roberts is speaking to Carney’s cabinet during a session dubbed “establishing a new economic and security relationship with the U.S.” They will also hear from Kevin Rudd, Australia’s ambassador to the U.S., during the session.

The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) said Roberts is speaking to cabinet about trade issues because he knows the Trump administration’s playbook.

If you are at meeting that has a nazi, you are at a meeting between nazi’s.

Just like if you are at a gathering and there is a nazi there, you are at a meeting between nazi’s.

Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.

“Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer”. Carney has a long and distinguished career in finance and politics. He is in complete control with whom he meets. Carney is buying time and setting up alternate trade outside of USSA. This takes time.

They need time. Canada IS setting up trade with other nations. It’s not going to happen overnight…

Geezus. Why do you immediately think the worst? Maybe Carney wants to put this BS to bed. Is it so hard to believe he’s not in cahoots?

yes, trust is earned, not pressumed

Oh, and I suppose the enemy is going to give you good info?

This is nonsense. You don’t sit down with fascists. Easiest rule. This is unconscionable.
