While still very far behind in meeting NATO targets, the PM is doing a lot of good things, putting 🇨🇦 back on the map as a serious player - following a dark decade when 🇨🇦‘s reputation was in decline.⁦Dave Perry⁩ cbc.ca/news/politics/…

Added to about 80,000 beef & pork producers I mentioned👇, there are about 62,000 grain & oilseed farms that don’t get the unfair protection that 9,000 dairy farms get under Cda’s Soviet style supply management system.CAFTA - ACCA Grain Growers of Canada

⁦Kirsten Hillman⁩ has served her country with great distinction, she’s one of our top diplomatists. Bravo on this most welcome appointment. Her skills & expertise are needed at this crucial juncture. ⁦Business Council of Canada⁩ ⁦Christopher Sands⁩ globe2go.pressreader.com/article/281883…

The PM is doing what’s needed to restore 🇨🇦‘s international reputation & its influence after many lost years, regrettably due to unforgivable neglect of defense/sovereignty interests. Dave Perry Thomas Juneau Roland Paris Robert Fife

We dont have all the details on this proposed 🇨🇦 EU defense deal but it looks like a good strategic move. We'll need to see the substance, however, to gage its likely impact.CADSI cbc.ca/news/politics/…

Prime Minister Mark Carney calls Canada “the most European of the non-European countries” as he signs Security and Defence Partnership agreement to deepen ties with EU in Brussels.

An important development, reinforcing 🇨🇦🇪🇺cooperation at this important historic juncture-every reason to applaud this agreement. Now to go to work to realize its potential-for both sides.CADSI Dave Perry

63 articles in this agt, in fact show how much joint 🇨🇦🇪🇺cooperation there’s been already in defense & security areas. This new agt takes an important step ahead in reinforcing these ties. A great development. Canada in EU 🇨🇦🇪🇺 Ailish Campbell

These incredible, disturbing reports by ⁦Mark MacKinnon⁩, from the dangers of Kyiv, can be likened to ER Murrow’s harrowing reports from London in 1940. This is courageous, commendable journalism. globe2go.pressreader.com/article/281492…

The CD Howe Inst has just republished my op-ed from the FP criticizing the major parties for enacting an unprecedented supply management law that will seriously inhibit interprovincial trade & harm Cda’s trade relns generally.⁦CAFTA - ACCA⁩ share.google/5BTMzznZsXnXYM…

Stay the course, Canada can’t retreat & give in to bullying threats from Trump, my BNN interview. Puts PM under pressure. Let’s get things back on the rails - but caving in wld be wrong.⁦⁦Business Council of Canada⁩ ⁦Johns Hopkins SAIS⁩ ⁦Peterson Institute⁩ bnnbloomberg.ca/video/shows/th…

Cda’s DST has been rescinded. Not what many wld have wanted. But it shows how uneven the power relationship is between 🇨🇦&🇺🇸. It reflects political reality. A disturbing precedent as we enter some kind of economic/security talks w Trump.The Brookings Institution CSIS

Agree. Not good. A retreat for which Cda gets little in return, a reflection of political reality & the effect of raw power.

Always enjoy reading ⁦Tony Keller⁩, common sense, tells it like it is. This one👇especially. How could the PM have fumbled this? Where was the advice coming from? Didn’t we have better intelligence from ⁦Embassy of Canada US⁩ ? Looks bad. globe2go.pressreader.com/article/281887…

Facing today’s extraordinary challenges to pay for defense, we shd remember that until Harper cut it in 2008, the GST was 7%. This may be where it shd be again, for reasons discussed here.⁦Dave Perry⁩ globe2go.pressreader.com/@Reader2663554…

Think about it. Government agencies control the supply of these commodities. A Soviet style system. No other ag producers get this kind of state regulated protection. It’s anachronistic & perverse. ⁦CAFTA - ACCA⁩ ⁦Business Council of Canada⁩ globe2go.pressreader.com/article/281938…

Absolutely correct. For 80 years, global trade was based on 1 main rule - tariff rates were fixed (“bound”) under GATT/WTO. This has now been destroyed, it’s chaos now. Trump’s deals are one-way, with no certainty.⁦The Brookings Institution⁩ globe2go.pressreader.com/article/282033…

Happy to speak on Sky News last night with Jonathan Samuels about the #ElginMarbles #ParthenonMarbles on the latest story about a political action group criticising the direction of travel *apparently* taken by the Trustees.

My CBC interview on Trumps latest tariff threat, a few minutes down in this clip. I say we’re in a chaotic trade war, no certainty, tough times ahead. youtu.be/Ta8_FRuk4DQ?si… via YouTube

There’s growing comment about the PM’s apparent lack of resolve to keep elbows up. Trumps latest tariffs for example. A concern here that political capital can rapidly depreciate.⁦Andrew Coyne 🇺🇦🇮🇱🇬🇪🇲🇩⁩ ⁦Leyland Cecco⁩ Konrad Yakabuski⁩ ⁦ bbc.com/news/articles/…
