Even Russia's statement against the Iran attack was stronger than Carney's.

Massively disappointed & not for the first time with Carney & the Libs. I returned to my roots & voted NDP this time, mainly because she had a better chance of defeating Aaron Gunn, but also I liked her better than the Lib candidate in my riding. That said, I was fully behind Carney & feel fooled.

I’d have liked to see something about respect for intl law but the Congress bit is strictly US business and any gov mentioning it immediately looks stupid when Congress does absolutely nothing about it.

motherearthrooted.bsky.social•5 days ago

Does the government mentioning it look “stupid” or the country ignoring their own laws?

fagankara.bsky.social•5 days ago

Point is whether they obey their laws or not is something only THEY control or punish. We can comment on intl laws though.

I believe we should

fagankara.bsky.social•5 days ago

So do I. I’m confident a LOT of calls are being held and I hope we’ll see stronger comments from Canada and the world.

Agreed, Carney's statement was almost dismissive of the fact that Trump's actions the U.S. Constitution as well as International Law.

It was totally opposite to what was needed, imo. Appeasing dictators did not work in 1930’s Europe and will not work now.

100%, now is not the time to try and play the middle. Take a stand.

Agree

Because we are in negotiations I never expected him to say, “Stupid orange turd cancels nuclear deal and then bombs Iran for continuing to build nuclear arsenal.”
