“four companies that dominate oilsands production — Canadian Natural Resources, Cenovus, Imperial Oil and Suncor — are close to three-quarters foreign-owned…these companies account for more than 80 per cent of oilsands production.”

Carney's European speech.
Some reactions:
"Goethe understood that ideals must be fought for."
Okay...
*pulls out brass knuckles*
"Sovereignty goes beyond the ability to be able to feed, fuel, and defend ourselves."
It's gone beyond me. I can't afford groceries. Give me low cost public grocery stores now!
"We believe that our prosperity grows when it's shared."
Pfft! You give millions to evil companies like Palantir. Big Oil gets oodles of cash. A $280 billion frenzy and some airports were thrown toward the richest CEOs on the planet. WHERE IS MY SHARE?

Well, I fired up CPAC on my browser and watched Carney give his European speech:
A lot of highfalutin stuff. Reminiscent of the Davos speech. But, well, the sequel is always less special.
I do note that, similar to the Davos speech, he included an escape clause.
In the Davos speech, it was:
"We actively take on the world as it is, not wait around for a world we wish to be."
So, whenever he was asked why he was not speaking against breaches of international law (IE, US invasion on Venezuela or Iran) as the Davos speech suggested he would, he'd reply something like:
"But you're forgetting, I said, 'we take on the world as it is', rather than what 'we wish it to be'".
I remember thinking, yikes, he just put three signs back in the window.
And now, I see he's got the following "emergency out" line:
"just as dominance is the arrogance of the hegemon, perfection is the enemy of the good."
I can hear him now if he's similarly confronted:
"You're forgetting, I said, 'perfection is the enemy of the good'".
I've seen some Libs on here absolutely wet themselves with glee over this line. Weird.

‘There is no good reason to expect anything different from this new corporate tax cut. We already have one year of data from the prime minister’s latest round of corporate handouts.

So yeah, a few things.
1. #Pipelines are impossible to protect from #drones. They're very long hey?
2. #Brent and #WestTexas futures are over us$100/barrel. Get used to that.

What is not proposed by PM Carney:
- Not to become a third power just with better manners
- Do not seek power to dominate others
- Resilience so no one can control our sovereign markets, our freedoms, democracy, or rule of law
But to create the next stable, just, and fair world order and reinforce international law.
-
What Canada proposes:
strategic autonomy in:- Critical Minerals
- Defence
- AI/Compute
Space
Work, study, and live on either side of the Atlantic 🎉
Pool resources, cooperate on frontier technologies and research/universities
Stockpile materials for EVs, chips, and other critical things for the energy transition
Advanced processing on both sides of the Atlantic.
LNG/Hydrogen supplied to Europe
Leadership from Europe on clean energy to Canada
Pool sovereign compute and broadband capacity, AI safety protocols, etc
Explore integrated market for financial services (?!?!) while maintaining financial resilience
Holy. Crap.

Trump doing an executive order denying Canadian products from US Federal procurement is actually hilarious - his fleet of cars need Canadian made parts, the F-35 program needs us, the US Navy as well - this is getting funny

So I guess we've gone from making flirty eyes at each other on Hans Ø to being in a complicated situation.
This week has to be one of the most dramatic periods of 7 days in Canada's entire geopolitical history.

@dyckron It will be interesting to see what would count as "unjustified". He also seems to make no mention of how much the workers might be squeezed. Will there be guarantees that a union workforce will be maintained? (GTAA workers are part of UNIFOR). No wonder unions are peeved.
Of course, the investors will be expected to make a profit, otherwise why would they invest? Those profits must come from either extra fees or reducing costs eg. labour or maintenance.
-
If passed, Mark Carney's proposal 'would be the most sweeping rollback of environmental protections ever.'
4 days until Parliament resumes. Contact your MP now, before the vote happens, and tell them to oppose this bill:

You couldn't make this stuff up.
Stephen Harper ... praised the Carney government during his speech.
“I do congratulate our current federal government on the measures it has taken to fast-track major project approvals, especially for projects in the oil sands. These changes are welcome and they are very important.”Later,
reporter asked Carney how American investment in Canadian infrastructure would help shore up Canadian sovereignty.
Carney said ... “American capital is welcome here to help build this economy.”

Reminder: just 4 companies dominate Alberta's tarsands — Canadian Natural Resources, Cenovus, Imperial Oil & Suncor. All are majority foreign-owned (~75%), with ~60% of shares held by Americans.
Paying for a new pipeline to service these American interests — in the middle of a #ClimateCrisis, during a #TradeWar — would be a deeply stupid thing for Canadians to do.

"… there is no historical link betw. corporate tax rates & corporate investment.
[But] one thing has increased over the last several decades of corporate tax cuts: dividends. Since Canada began cutting corporate taxes in the 1980s, dividends - disproportionately paid out to the richest 1% - have increased from 5% of GDP to > 12% today.
This isn’t the only path Canada can take."
Trickle down hasn’t worked … Why does Carney want to try it again?
