Carney's Hot Air at Davos as Cover for Western Barbarism

On January 20, 2026, at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney called time of death on the so-called rules-based international order. In a speech lauded by many, Carney urged countries to stop complying with regimes seeking hegemony, to stop hoping for a return to the past, and to instead build new coalitions to survive what’s coming next.

Carney wants a new world order - but only for the West

After failing to stand up for Gaza or Venezuela, the Canadian prime minister took umbrage when US imperialism hit home

Carney is prepared to be principled when it comes to western countries like Canada and Denmark, and pragmatic when it comes to Palestine and Venezuela

https://www.desmog.com/2026/01/27/mark-carneys-goal-is-to-increase-our-oil-production-says-former-chief-of-staff

Quelle surprise: energy agenda at odds with prime minister’s previous stated commitments to addressing climate change.

@persagen

Trudeau's tariffs on Chinese EVs was met by soy and lobster tariffs from China. No one expected Carney to side with EVs, but with autopact new energy lagards.

Both choices would cost, going with internal combustion would require billions for Atlantic Canada and western farms. Lowering EV costs will require job rich support to the electric auto transition in Ontario and Quebec despite Trump.

Its the right choice.
Ending carbon is building the new world.
