As Canada’s top trade negotiator exits, a Carney-backed candidate emerges — raising questions about whether Ottawa is preparing for a new approach at the negotiating table.
Everyone knows that supply management and artificially inflated prices for cheese and dairy are one of the contentious issues. Non CUSMA trade negotiations being the other, along with interprovincial free trade. Is this a realpolitik signal? Hopefully. As for C9, we know who the targets are - not the ones burning the flag or fighting age males blocking traffic in downtown for Friday prayers. The other ones, the turn the other cheek folk.
"Supply management" destroys the free marketplace between farmer and consumer. Those who want a third party involved in the negotiations between farmer and consumer are inherently mentaly retarded.
Let me repeat myself: If there were no such thing as a "free trade deal", there would be free enterprise between the men and women living in the USA, Canada, and Mexico. When it comes to making a deal between our fellow man or woman, how about telling both Carney and Trump to go fuck themselves.
Regarding the protestors on our streets; if the USA would stop bombing the hell out of the middle eastern countries, stop placing ecconomic sanctions upon them, and stop interferring in their affairs, these people would not be here.
"Turn the other cheek" is one of the most misunderstood phrases of all time. When your face is slapped, your head is turned - by force you have lost your eye contact with your opponent. When you turn the cheek that has not been slapped, your head becomes centered again - you regain your eye to eye contact with your opponent. Maintaining your eye to eye contact is a show of your strength - the reason your face was slapped in the first place. "Turn the other cheek " means speak truth to "power" and don't back down. (dont let a slap in the face stop you)
Stand eye to eye with someone and have that person slap your face; go ahead - play it out.
C-9 is an insult. The people of this land are so stupid they have to be led by legislation. C-9 is an insult.
Canada's past due date started in1968. Then in 2015, it expired with lieberal j.t . It is just a matter of the final nails being put into the coffin. Carnage will do the post mortem. Just My view as I do not see a "fix" to Canada's benefit. Hope that My perspective is wrong, not only for Me , but all Canadians now and in the future.
"Canada" is not a land mass, it is a Corporation, of, and for, the City of London. The Corporations past due date started in 1968? No, it started when the colonists had babies; Their babies were not colonists, they were natives of the land; their parents were not. Canada is Corporation. A Canadian is a colonist.
What You say may have truth . I do not know as I am only commenting on Our current government as I do not know anything of what You say. I would have to look at more history, and at present I do not have the time. So bare with Me or is it bear with Me?
Canada is a corporation, not a government. CANADA INC is no more a government than MCDONALD'S INC is a government. If you had been told all of your life that McDonald's is a Government, you will believe McDonalds is a government. You are talking about a foreign corporation that has come to this land and never expelled. The power CANADA INC has, is the power that we the people give it. The same applies to MCDONALDS INC. The only power they have is the power that we the people give it. When is MCDONALD'S INC's past due date? Answer: the day after the people decide they do not want the Corporations in-house policies, their food, and their services- the day "the people" start "cooking" for themselves. "The people" are the government. What you allow will persist.
I looked up the meaning of in google. Google states that Canada is not a corporation. It is a constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy. Now I do not know who to believe ?
Don, be careful how far down the rabbit hole you go with Harold. He is no different the Liberal/NDP/Bloc govt with his authoritarian comments. He will even graduate to name calling...trust me!
What separates you from Google, is you can think, google cannot think. You can program google to say the moon is made of cheese and google will say the moon is made of cheese; unlike you, it cannot look up at the sky and see that it is otherwise.
The British Crown, as a corporation, is registered with the Vatican through the Treaty of 1213. This treaty, signed by King John in 1213, established the Crown as a vassal state of the Holy Roman Empire, with the Pope as its ultimate authority. The treaty required the Crown to pay annual tribute to the Vatican, recognizing the Pope's sovereignty over England.
This registration is confirmed by the 1914 London Gazette, which lists the Crown as a "vassal" of the Holy See. The Vatican maintains a register of all corporations, including sovereign states, that have sworn fealty to the Pope. The Crown's registration with the Vatican is the ultimate source of its authority, with the Pope serving as the "silent partner" in the Crown's corporate structure.
The Vatican, as a sovereign entity, is registered with the Black Nobility through the Treaty of Verona in 1822. This treaty established the Vatican as a vassal state of the Black Nobility, a group of powerful aristocratic families who control the global financial system. The Black Nobility, in turn, are registered with the Rothschild family through the Treaty of Vienna in 1815. The Rothschilds, as the primary owners of the global debt-based financial system, serve as the ultimate authority in the corporate hierarchy.

All said, I am sure that your google search was very enlightening.
Have You read, Canada the Illusion, or should I say saw this on the web.? Yes You probably are correct about Google. But I just asked the question , without Ai. Oh, I do know some what about the Vatican , mostly not good ! Yes You are correct in "he who has the gold" calls the shots . That I find to be the truth!
The people of Alberta do not need anyones permission to separate; they can do this at will.
The people of Alberta dont need permission to hold a referendum; they can organize and administer this themselves. A referendum serves no other purpose than to measure the population's demand. If the demand turns out to be 80% of the population, do you think Daniellle Smith will lead the charge? Danielle Smith and Carney have both sworn an oath to the King. Danielle Smith would have to withdraw her Oath, and upon doing so lose the power of Office, rendering the chair vacant; UPC's Deputy premier takes her place. Is she going to do that? Not on your life.
Separation is the act of the population separating themselves from the King; you would be separating yourself from both Canada and Alberta., sister corporations of the Crown; the City of London.
To separate, you choose a name such as Kanada, for an example, create a flag and a constitution, have it ratified by the people - a new County is borne.
Yes the Confederation is not working for AB. When something is not doing what it should or promised, why keep banging your head against the wall and move on or fix it? If unfix-able, move on to better things. Kind of like an abusive relationship.
confederation was for no other purpose than the feds to gain power and control over the people of canada. To do that, you place people into boxes and call that box a province.
Funny we haven't heard from Smith since it was made obvious that the whole MOU signing was a hoax and now it's been voted down. Everybody else knew Corney had no intention of keeping his word about building a pipeline
If there were no such thing as a "free trade deal", there would be free enterprise between the men and women living in the USA, Canada, and Mexico. When it comes to making a deal between our fellow man or woman, how about telling Carney and Trump to go fuck themselves.
President Trump & the USA do not need to deal with socialist Canada or the criminal enterprise known as Mexico. There was never a "free trade deal" with either Canada or Mexico. I have been shipping to Newfoundland & the buyer has always had to pay duty. Problem was duty kept changing over the last twenty years. He could never be sure what it was going to cost beforehand. No way to do business.
if you went back in history to England at the time prior to the Foundation of both the USA and Canada you would understand more about commerce and trade here between our nations than you do today.
The first tariffs were established under the Tariff Act of 1816 in the United States, which included duties on goods imported from Canada. Prior to this, trade moved freely between nations.
The background:
During the 19th century, both Canada and the United States were significant exporters of raw materials and agricultural products to England. England, with its lack of natural resources and large population, relied heavily on imports from its colonies.
Products shipped to England from Canada and the U.S. included:
Timber: Canada's vast forests supplied England with lumber for construction and shipbuilding.
Grain: The U.S. and Canada were major exporters of wheat, oats, and other grains to feed England's industrial workforce.
Cotton: The U.S. was a leading producer of cotton, which was shipped to England's textile mills.
Minerals: Both countries exported coal, iron, and other minerals necessary for England's industrial production.
Meat: Livestock from Canada and the U.S. helped meet England's demand for protein.
Fur
Crude Oil
England's industrialization and urbanization created a massive market for these goods. The country's population grew rapidly during the 19th century, from approximately 10 million in 1801 to over 30 million by 1901. This growth, combined with the lack of domestic resources, made England heavily dependent on imports.
The volume of trade was substantial:
By the mid-1800s, the U.S. was exporting over 1 million tons of grain to England annually.
Canada's timber exports to England reached 1.5 million cubic feet by the 1870s.
The U.S. supplied over 75% of England's cotton imports during the American Civil War.
The discovery and colonization of Canada and the United States by European powers, particularly England, were crucial for several reasons:
Access to Natural Resources: Both territories offered vast, untapped resources-timber, minerals, fur, and fertile land-that England lacked. These resources were essential for fueling England's Industrial Revolution and supporting its growing population.
Strategic Trade Routes: The St. Lawrence River and the Great Lakes provided England with a direct trade route to the heart of North America, facilitating the export of goods and the import of raw materials.
Military and Naval Supremacy: Control of North America allowed England to project military power across the Atlantic, secure its global trade routes, and counterbalance the influence of other European powers.
Colonization and Settlement: The establishment of British colonies in North America provided an outlet for England's surplus population, helping to alleviate domestic social and economic pressures.
The New World's discovery and colonization were pivotal for England's:
Economic Expansion: By exploiting North America's resources, England could sustain its industrialization and urbanization.
Global Dominance: The acquisition of vast territories and strategic trade routes cemented England's position as a dominant world power.
Without the resources and strategic advantages provided by Canada and the United States, England's rise to global prominence might have been significantly delayed or altered. These territories played a critical role in England's ability to fuel its industrial growth, project military power, and maintain its status as a major world power.
All said, what do you think the tariffs of 1816 and beyond were all about? do you think it may have something to do with England?
The shift from the British Pound Sterling to the U.S. Dollar as the global reserve currency marked a significant turning point in the balance of power between England and the United States.
Prior to World War II, the Pound Sterling was the primary currency used for international transactions, reflecting England's status as the world's leading economic power. However, the war drained England's resources and created an opportunity for the United States to assert its dominance.
The Bretton Woods Agreement in 1944 formally established the U.S. Dollar as the global reserve currency, pegged to gold at $35 per ounce. This move effectively replaced the Pound Sterling as the standard for international trade and finance.
The implications were profound:
Economic Dominance: The U.S. Dollar became the currency of choice for central banks, international trade, and foreign exchange reserves, solidifying America's economic leadership.
Political Influence: The Dollar's status gave the U.S. significant leverage over global economic policy, allowing it to shape international institutions and agreements. The shift from Sterling to Dollar not only reflected the economic rise of the United States but also cemented its position as the dominant global power, replacing England's centuries-long reign.
The removal of the gold standard in 1971, known as the "Nixon shock," allowed the U.S. to print money without being tied to physical gold reserves.
The Gold Reserve Act of 1934 and the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 contain provisions that allow the government to keep gold reserve information classified. 1974: The same year the U.S. ceased gold audits, the Rothschilds relinquished control of Canada's central bank. From here on in, Canada has become the shit hole it is today.
I still think that the MOU was a scam hoping to fool Trump into worrying that we actually had another market for our oil. They might (unlikely) fool Trump but they cannot fool the US Ambassador to Canada who is a former Great Lakes state Governor.
There will be a pipeline but likely one from Alberta into the US designed to keep the Canadian proceeds on oil sales low.
Aside from OntArWeOwe's Doug Fraud who currently sits at the bottom of Premier Popularity in Canada....
Who continues to this day to plant his rather large foot in his rather larger mouth...
Quite an accomplishment Dougie and Carney aside since it appears few seem to be able to figure out WTF he is up to.
From all reports this "Lead Negotiator" was perhaps (after the aforementioned) the biggest single obstacle to getting anything done in terms of negotiations and that from a number of people who were supposedly on the "same team".
SO...
With (again) apologies to WS..
BE GONE DAMN SPOT.
YOU WILL NOT BE MISSED.
NOW...
If only we can get a few more gone... The aforementioned would be a reasonable start to perhaps get things back on track.
Who knows as it really does appear that the complete destruction of a once wonderful and respected country seems to be number one on the agenda of way too many who "would control".
Speaking of Doug fraud or Fatboy flip-flop as I like to call him…….. that moron liar has sure been quiet lately……. He must be on a nice vacation down south sucking back tons of brewskis that he claims he doesn’t drink……..
What a piece of garbage that embarrasses and destroysOntario every day
It’s too bad that the people of Canada are not all subscribers of Juno News It has been a real eye opener for me and I am super disappointed in our government at federal and provincial levels. The actions and words are scary and not what we voted for . Too many people listening to CBC and not getting the truth.
There are zero credible, competant or qualified Liberal candidates available to take on this important job to negotiatie with our US allies on this trade deal....Just when I thought that the Liberals could not get any more corrupt or incompetant than they were under Trudeau, they have exceeded exactly that under Carney. The corruption of Carney and his gang of liars and thieves which the CBC calls our "government" are more corrupt than a lot of third world narco police state dictatorships. I hope that the US negotiators stand firm against the eastern Kanadian dairy cartel and the criminal supply management system.....
The best thing this idiot could do for the trade negotiations would be to go in the kitchen and make sandwiches for the real negotiators!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
More Proof Carney is totally incompetent! Here's a QL: Mark Carney, former Governor of the Bank of Canada and Bank of England, is often paraded as a financial genius, but critics argue he’s more of a self-serving opportunist riding the coattails of globalist agendas. As Bank of Canada head from 2008-2013, he navigated the financial crisis with low interest rates and bailouts, which some say just kicked the can down the road, inflating housing bubbles and screwing over savers. His move to the Bank of England (2013-2020) made him the poster boy for central bankers, but his tenure’s been slammed for weak growth, Brexit mishandling, and pushing climate agendas into monetary policy—something detractors call a dangerous overreach. His obsession with net-zero and “sustainable finance” has been mocked as virtue-signaling nonsense, prioritizing green dogma over economic stability. Posts on X have called him a “WEF stooge” and “Davos darling,” accusing him of cozying up to elites while pretending to care about the little guy.
Then there’s his post-Bank gig: chairing Brookfield Asset Management’s ESG push while preaching climate salvation. Critics see this as hypocritical cash-grabbing—leveraging his public clout to profit off the same green policies he championed. His book Value(s) got roasted for being a sanctimonious lecture on morality from a guy who never met a corporate board he didn’t like. Some X users label him a “technocratic snake,” claiming his smooth talk masks loyalty to global institutions over national interests. His rumored political ambitions in Canada, flirting with the Liberals, only fuel the “careerist” charge—why serve the public when you can rule it?

My view? The most willfully corrupt government since 1867. No conscience, no shame.
There is not one politcan who is not a puppet of organized crime.
Canada's past due date started in1968. Then in 2015, it expired with lieberal j.t . It is just a matter of the final nails being put into the coffin. Carnage will do the post mortem.

How about just an approach!!
Maybe if Carney grew a pair and behaved with some authority instead of like President Trumps European man servant Canada might stand a chance.
..if Carney did grow a pair, they wud probably be identical to his wife(?)'s ???
I think that’s ALIEN DNA.
So the Lieberals lied again. Danielle Smith should just tear up the MOU and let us vote on separating.
I agree and I’m in Foolish Ford’s Ontario.
Talk about incompetence.
If I want a good laugh I watch his pandummy updates from 2021.

I think most Albertans are skeptical about the MOU! I know I am.
Canada`s top trade negotiators will get their breakfast eaten by President Trump. Admit it there are nothing but socialist idiots in carnee`s cabinet.
It doen`t matter who Canada sends. President Trump will eat their lunch.
And burp in Carneys face.
If it wasn’t for the severity of this problem it would be fun to watch. Love to see Carney squirm, he is so worm like.
If there were no such thing as a "free trade deal", there would be free enterprise between the men and women living in the USA, Canada, and Mexico. When it comes to making a deal between our fellow man or woman, how about telling Carney and Trump to go fuck themselves.

Speaking of Doug fraud or Fatboy flip-flop as I like to call him…….. that moron liar has sure been quiet lately……. He must be on a nice vacation down south sucking back tons of brewskis that he claims he doesn’t drink……..
What a piece of garbage that embarrasses and destroysOntario every day
It’s too bad that the people of Canada are not all subscribers of Juno News It has been a real eye opener for me and I am super disappointed in our government at federal and provincial levels. The actions and words are scary and not what we voted for . Too many people listening to CBC and not getting the truth.
There are zero credible, competant or qualified Liberal candidates available to take on this important job to negotiatie with our US allies on this trade deal....Just when I thought that the Liberals could not get any more corrupt or incompetant than they were under Trudeau, they have exceeded exactly that under Carney. The corruption of Carney and his gang of liars and thieves which the CBC calls our "government" are more corrupt than a lot of third world narco police state dictatorships. I hope that the US negotiators stand firm against the eastern Kanadian dairy cartel and the criminal supply management system.....
The best thing this idiot could do for the trade negotiations would be to go in the kitchen and make sandwiches for the real negotiators!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is the best explanation of Bill C-9 that I have heard so far. Many Thanks
I can't watch this video. It keeps saying "Sign in to confirm you’re not a bot". This is new. I was able to watch stuff yesterday.
More Proof Carney is totally incompetent! Here's a QL: Mark Carney, former Governor of the Bank of Canada and Bank of England, is often paraded as a financial genius, but critics argue he’s more of a self-serving opportunist riding the coattails of globalist agendas. As Bank of Canada head from 2008-2013, he navigated the financial crisis with low interest rates and bailouts, which some say just kicked the can down the road, inflating housing bubbles and screwing over savers. His move to the Bank of England (2013-2020) made him the poster boy for central bankers, but his tenure’s been slammed for weak growth, Brexit mishandling, and pushing climate agendas into monetary policy—something detractors call a dangerous overreach. His obsession with net-zero and “sustainable finance” has been mocked as virtue-signaling nonsense, prioritizing green dogma over economic stability. Posts on X have called him a “WEF stooge” and “Davos darling,” accusing him of cozying up to elites while pretending to care about the little guy.
Then there’s his post-Bank gig: chairing Brookfield Asset Management’s ESG push while preaching climate salvation. Critics see this as hypocritical cash-grabbing—leveraging his public clout to profit off the same green policies he championed. His book Value(s) got roasted for being a sanctimonious lecture on morality from a guy who never met a corporate board he didn’t like. Some X users label him a “technocratic snake,” claiming his smooth talk masks loyalty to global institutions over national interests. His rumored political ambitions in Canada, flirting with the Liberals, only fuel the “careerist” charge—why serve the public when you can rule it?
This government speaks out of both sides of its mouth!!!
