Carney says upholding Canadian values key to sovereignty as authoritarianism rises
Carney emphasized defending inclusion, democratic values, and advancing economic and social priorities amid global democratic decline, with support from global middle powers.
- On Thursday, Mark Carney said that staying true to Canada’s values is key to maintaining its sovereignty in a speech to kick off the cabinet retreat in Quebec City.
- Carney's Davos speech urged middle powers to band together to resist coercion and declared a 'rupture' to the old rules-based international order earlier this week at the World Economic Forum, Davos, Switzerland.
- In prepared remarks, Carney said `There are long periods of history when these values can prosper unchallenged. Ours is not one of them` and pledged to protect child care, dental care and pharmacare while prioritizing economic co-operation, international trade, criminal-justice reform, artificial intelligence and defence investments.
- Ministers are scheduled to review progress on mandates at the Cabinet Planning Forum, hearing from experts on economy, affordability and security before Parliament returns on Monday.
- His Davos speech drew a standing ovation and praise from Claudia Sheinbaum and Jim Chalmers after a one-week trip to China, Qatar, and the World Economic Forum.
