Thanks for explaining the two invites that shocked me -- Modi and MBS (glad the latter is not attending). The others made sense in context. ALL THE BEST TO CARNEY AND CANADA with this G-7!!
Dean Blundell may not be the most dispassionate reporter on Canadian political matters, but he sure makes it interesting. I had gotten in the habit of following American politics but not Canadian politics. That habit has now changed. Kudos, Dean.
I still have family in Quebec that l never have had the chance to meet. My Grandfather immigrated to the U.S. in the late 1800’s and as far as I know, he never went back. Somehow I need to find a way back to that heritage. This series of events makes that all seem so much more important.
i was at one of the several protest rallys in my area yesterday. carried the canadian flag and educated lots of people that no, i am not a canadian- but would be if i wasn't so old- but explained that mark carney is everything trump isn't. many were not even aware of who he is but were interested- hopefully enough to research. (more at the end of my note here)
saw a 30 minute article a few minnutes ago explaining how the g7 is going to be controlled by a list of topics that (fat chance) will keep trump under control. we know even before the meeting opens how this will play out.
but here is my concern- at all the rallys in all the cities, everyone was happy, positive and excited! wonderful!
problem is----how do we keep this going?? it will be hard and if we don't keep being examples to our kids and grand kids, just remember- charlie kirk has kids and grandkids too!!
now- here is my plan. i am working on a post comparing trump and carney in several different catagories. when it's finished, i am sure it will be a lot of fun to read!! please stay tuned!
Very proud to be a Canadian being led on world stage by PM Carney 🇨🇦🍁
"we couldn't be prouder!"
WOW!!!
Sometimes the "moment" creates the leader. This Carney's...and Canada's moment.
Key is last statement. Putting democracy on the offensive. Thanks Carney

Me too
This should be an interesting if controversial mix...Modi is certainly controversial. Glad MBS declined. Trump should have done the same.

My hopes are high!
That would be a great photo op of him in the corner pouting since he is not the center of attention!
