Canada’s PM Carney welcomed the invitation to become the first “associate member” of the European Union, but emphasised that the intent is not to become a full member nor to cede sovereignty.

    why are you talking like PP wasnt just a hot breath away from taking it from carney prior to this mess america did?

    the whole reason canada has carney right now IS because of america voting for trump. go have a look again at the ridings. look at the time line. go look at what the NDP nad BLOC had to sacrifice just to keep the canadian version of trump taking power. canada had to relinquish to a two party system just to survive this.

    yeah sure you can talk big right now after that deal is done but dont think for a second there wasnt a hard lesson looming here for the average canadian voter who doesnt vote or only ever votes bipartisan.

    NDP and BLOC had to squelch their ridings just to save canada. do not ever forget that. Do not ever take that for granted.
