Employing U.S. President Donald Trump’s marquee slogan, Prime Minister Mark Carney told a New York City business crowd on Thursday that “Canada strong will help make America great again,” a remark the U.S. envoy to this country said was “worth repeating.”

“We’re focused on what we can control, and that means weaving a dense web of international partnerships abroad. That’s making us a much stronger, more resilient, more independent country,” Carney told the business crowd.

He did. I hope he continues to, because the more he says it, the further it gets from reach. Like how he keeps saying "He's very close to a deal with Iran", no he's not. And every time he runs his mouth it gets further and further away.

Now, is it a good idea to invite Palantir to our security apparatus? Absolutely not. Is it a good idea to sell our airports to JP Morgan? No. Does pushing draconian anti-privacy legislation that will drive out VPNs and secure software providers suggest Carney is a major problem? Absolutely. We should do something about that, but he IS keeping the twit in the White House occupied.

Always remember that the most perfidious way to undermine a good cause is by defending it with a bad argument. He is managing Trump, which is the primary reason people voted for him in the first place. We all need to keep a close eye on what he's trying to slip by while our attention is elsewhere though. There's more than one Cabal of snakes looking to subjugate us.
