Nodding to the “Fortress North America” concept floated by Ontario Premier Doug Ford and some U.S. interests, which prioritizes continental co-operation in the face of Chinese economic threats, Carney said this new relationship would “re-imagine co-operation in specific sectors deeply challenged by global competition.”
Carney said the U.S. is dependent on Canadian oil, natural gas, electricity, aluminum, potash, nickel, copper and industrial components, and the two sides should do more business together in these sectors, not less.
“That is mutual strength. Canada Strong will help make America great again. The examples are legion where we should work together and compete with the world together,” he said.
For what? Military invasion? Do you have any clue how much it would cost to ‘prepare’? If we did that, we would end up exactly like the USA: broke in debt and only using taxes to feed the military. So what are we defending from then?
And guess where all the money would go for this preparation. US military contractors. Prepare for a war you already lost.
You outlined the current scenario. A proper leader would only use Canadian tech hence powering our war machine not theirs.
