Mark Carney essentially said that the liberal rules based world order was a convenient lie everyone went along with because American hegemony opened up markets and sea lanes for them.

After decades in which the imperialist neoliberal order was not even questioned in the West, less than three weeks into it 2026, Canada, one of the biggest US vassals is saying this.

@yogthos I’m not even sure what to make of it yet.
Most of the bills his government have passed contain concessions demanded by the US. He’s still pressing this country into a resource state. Making trips to Qatar and China.
And he framed it all using a stereotype about communism and yet also borrows the language of labour organizing?
Is there a decent analysis of his speech and what it actually means?

@yogthos maybe that is what’s getting me. Quoting Havel and yet being a conservative neoliberal is an odd combination.
Progress?
