@randahl Mark Carney is great! That's what happens then you get someone with a half decent IQ in politics.

An interesting counter-point from outside the Western orbit.

@randahl I knew when I was watching his speech that I was witnessing an historical moment.

"Nostalgia is not a strategy" is the perfect response to the Maga slogan cause it stresses the idea that only a fool would try apply old solutions to new problems.

In my view, Mark Carney is the second greatest leader currently in power.

@randahl Brilliant. But I remember Greta Thunberg also had a standing ovation at the same place some years ago, and there were are.

@_elena he is crushing each of Trump's illusions one after another. And I was like:

@randahl @_elena The question will be if the middle powers actually rally around each other for form a block to push back.

@randahl When you live beside a giant for so long you realize the ability to move has always been there. You just need to start moving beyond its shadow to find others like you. And we will.

@randahl

Tauchte aber nur als Randnotiz und bruchstückhaft in den Nachrichten auf. War wohl zuviel Sprengstoff gegen #TrumpDictatorship

Nach diesem Scheiß- Deal werden alle einknicken und alles ist erstmal wieder gut.

Das wird wahnsinnig BÖSE ENDEN. FÜR UNS ALLE.

You Canadians have no fear, I'm proud of you. The EU must learn about your president.

I don’t wanna be a Debbie Downer here. I pray Prime Minister Carney follows through.
But as a Canadian, I feel obligated to point out a few truths. In my country, “Elbows Up” has become “Elbows Down” on a number of occasions. Most notably, and worth mentioning, is the Digital Services Tax our country had intended to levy against U.S. tech billionaires. 1/
