    I’m sure in your mind somewhere, there is a very logic link.

    But realize that for everyone outside your bubble, picking between a South Korean’s company submarine model and a German’s company submarine model has absolutely no relation whatsoever with Africa, and probably not much to do with the UK either.

      The point was to illustrate Carney’s Eurocentrism with an example, seeing as people seemed to assume my opinion was settled based on the submarine news alone. I wasn’t trying to link Africa with South Korea, Germany, or Norway.

        If you want an example, use $150,000,000 in taxpayer dollars to enter Canada in Eurovision.

        And maybe this public ‘eurocentrism’ might be a good idea with our current negotiations with our largest trading partner who insists we need them.
