Mark Carney and his international agreements

Here is a concluding thought not raised in legacy media, as the PM prepares his next world tour to Australia and beyond. There is a recognizable pattern to the manner in which Mark Carney unilaterally makes international commitments, whether it be signed agreements, MOUs, or consensual arrangements. In essence, Carney is flying solo – adhering to his own counsel and working with his own network. Without parliamentary debate or public discussion, and one can surmise without even the Liberal caucus knowledge, Carney is forging ahead to sign significant international agreements. These agreements are profoundly realigning Canada’s place in the global community and its standing with its traditional allies. As Canadians will come to appreciate in the passing of time, the devil is sure to be in the details of those CCP, Qatar, and EU agreements.

Jeff Rath’s behaviour toward Danielle Smith is not a good look for this movement, and he does not speak for me.
When this started, I had respect for him. But as this has played out, it has become harder to ignore what appears to be a push for power inside the movement, not a sincere focus on Alberta independence.
Danielle Smith is a major reason Albertans were even able to collect signatures in the first place. Compared to any other premier in this country, I believe she has been the strongest one standing up for her province.
I will not forget her accomplishments.
She stood up for parental rights when others wanted schools keeping parents in the dark.
She took action against political ideology being pushed in classrooms.
She made sure kids got back to school when the system tried to hold families hostage.
She has strengthened Alberta Sheriffs and continued exploring ways to free Alberta from relying on the RCMP.
And that is only part of it.

Listening to Ganum today on the meeting that Premier Smith is having with Lukasek I am wondering why not just have his referendum on the vote in October? If enough say no to his question isn't it the same as a referendum that the other side wants? I for one want this to wake up the East and don't care how it happens. Another caller said she needs to call an provincial election in October and take the rest of questions off the ballot - this could be risky but I am leaning toward it as terrified that the NDP will get in again and right now Nemshi is their handicap IMHO.
