Mark Carney is using the threat of Trump to remake Canada in ways that should alarm us
by Linda McQuaig September 21, 2026

Carney is taking advantage of the fear and loathing Canadians feel towards Trump to justify remaking the country in a way that primarily benefits business interests, not the rest of us.

Quoting from Lindy Edwards’ *How to Argue with and Economist* (2nd Ed, 2007) again (pp8-9) — tell me that you can’t see #AlboPM #Labor Govt doing the exact same thing as the #Coalition did under #Howard. Go on, tell me… I’m all ears.

“After four years in office the Coalition [the Howard govt] had reached the same conclusion Labor [the Keating govt] had reached six years before. Being a social progressive was identical to being a liberal conservative. Both amount to a commitment to free markets, with a caring eye to those suffereing through the transition. To the extent that there is any view of how to move forward, both parties had come to the same conclusion: that the policy elite in Canberra were right, and that the punters just didn’t understand. Both sides had concluded that the public were battered, bewildered and didn’t realise it was all for their own good. Both sides talked endlessly about needing to ‘explain’ things better to the electorate.”

Go on, tell me it’s not all Libs-Labor conflation. Tell me this is not 2007. That we are indeed living through 2027. Go on…

"But like a billion-dollar luxury hotel chain, Carney’s hotly-courted investments aren’t going to trickle down to benefit ordinary #Canadians. Instead, they’ll enrich the authoritarian despots of Middle Eastern kingdoms, while also offering impunity for their crimes." https://breachmedia.ca/gulf-billionaire-dictators-are-looking-to-cash-in-on-mark-carneys-investment-bonanza/

An diesem Beispiel zeigt sich wie die Auswirkungen eines in Teilen durch die #Agenda2010 bereits zerstörten Sozialstaates mit fehlender #Resilienz, mit fehlender #Innovation, mit fehlenden Ideenreichtum, mit der #Klimakrise und dem #Artensterben sowie der #Rezession in #Deutschland zusammen hängen.

#Demokratie ist dann in Gefahr, wenn sie einer auf #Kosten reduzierten #Priorisierung untergeordnet wird & das geschieht im #Neoliberalism
