Carney advocates 'new world order' at EU Summit
Carney, a self-proclaimed crisis manager, earlier called Canada 'the most European of non-European countries.'
Prime Minister Mark Carney has warned the world is "more dangerous and divided" than before, posing a threat to the "rules-based global order."
"Today is a new era of cooperation," Carney told European allies Monday in Brussels. "Our strategic Canada-EU partnership will… bring us closer… and this will make us more resilient and prosperous."
The federal government signed a strategic defence pact with the EU Monday evening to reduce its reliance on the U.S. for defence procurement.
The Liberal government vowed May 27 to join ReArm Europe, as stated in the throne speech.
The former central banker stated he felt more comfortable in Brussels than Washington due to "very hot" U.S. tensions. "As the most European of the non-European countries, Canada looks first to the European Union to build a better world, and that's what today is about."
On strengthening ties with the European Commission, Carney said they shared "similar views" on defence and with respect to Ukraine.
"The European Union is preparing its 18th sanction package, a very significant package of sanctions," he told reporters, pointing to Canada's latest sanctions against Russia.
He announced $4.3 billion in new defence support for Ukraine at the G7 Summit last week. That includes a $2 billion commitment for drones, ammunition, and armoured vehicles as part of its NATO defence spending.
Before the G7, Prime Minister Carney met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Rome, reaffirming Canada's support for the war-torn nation.
"We admire what you're doing," he told Zelenskyy on May 17. "We admire your commitment to peace.”
Carney will attend the NATO summit in The Hague immediately after signing the defence pact.
The 32-member Western military alliance is pondering a 5% of GDP target, including 3.5% for direct military spending and an additional 1.5% for defence infrastructure.

The west gets shafted time after time. Elections winners are announced while folks in the west are still voting. It’s time we in the west had our own country and keep that half-a-trillion dollars that we send to Ottawa.

Canada has now gone down the path of the failing European’s slippery slope on it’s was to full fledged Communism. But first he will destroy Canada by completing the job of bankrupting the country, a job started and and put well on it’s way by Trudough, Let’s hope Alberta and the rest of the west get out before that happens. If they don’t the globalists will send in UN troops to make sure it never happens. -

Bruce Atchison commented 2025-06-23 20:44:16 -0400Is this Any surprise? Marx Carney is a globalist who thinks an elitist is just what Canada needs. Keep in mind the rot that Europe is going through. That’s what socialism does to EVERY country it’s tried in. And unless you’re a crony capitalist, socialism robs you of initiative and hope.

Roger Mills commented 2025-06-23 18:27:09 -0400We keep hearing about a Rules Based World Order! Whose rules, the Elites of the World because their rules are not working. Mass Immigration, Gun Violence, Muslim Terrorism, Christians and Jews being slaughtered around the world, Protests against Israel, Rockets raining down on Israel, Protests calling for the destruction of Israel. Europe is not a coherent country but a bunch of Monarchs looking out for themselves. I stand with the US; Not Europe. Too many WEF, WHO dictators. Look at Brittan, a total disaster, Muslin Rape gangs, Political Prisoners. No Thanks. If Carney likes Europe so much, then he need to Immigrate back to Brittan.
