Much more than you seem to think. I don't care to defend China or any of them, but it is obvious to any observer that the greater challenge to our sovereignty in the Arctic may well be the USA, which does not acknowledge it. That aside the other foreign threat is unlikely to be China but Russia, and you have not shown evidence to the contrary. You are trying to frame the issue as one in which the only villain is China, and this seems to be the position of Poilievre et al., who are unserious and ignorant politicians.

Mark CARNEY refuses to say CHINA is a threat in the Arctic. Meanwhile our own CSIS says China is a bigger concern than Russia 🤯 Carney has been asked this question a few times and it’s always RUSSIA 🇷🇺 never CHINA 🇨🇳

@BarryESharp @MelissaLMRogers Mr. Sharp: collecting unrelated bits of information and suggesting that they constitute evidence dies not make them evidence. Is it truly logical for us to fear China in the Arctic more than Russia who is already in the Arctic?

Prime Minister Carney's video clip prioritizing Russia as the Arctic's primary security threat, without once naming China, directly contradicts the February 2026 House of Commons testimony from CSIS officials. They stated Russia's military activities remain a concern but are of less immediate priority than China's economic security threats: predatory investments in critical minerals, clandestine infrastructure plays, foreign interference operations, and efforts to position Beijing as a near-Arctic player through research stations and resource claims. This is not speculation. CSIS Assistant Director Paul Lynd and colleagues explicitly ranked China's activities higher for eroding Canadian sovereignty through economic means, control over processing chains, deceptive joint ventures, and influence in emerging northern markets, while Russia focuses on conventional posture stretched by other commitments. Carney's government announced a $35 billion Arctic defence and infrastructure package on March 12, 2026, including three new bases, airfield upgrades, and operational nodes, plus NATO cooperation with Norway. That addresses military gaps and reduces reliance on allies, which is overdue. Yet the same administration signed a strategic partnership with China in January 2026 that included slashing EV tariffs to 6.1 percent for up to 49,000 Chinese imports and opened doors to energy and agri-food investments, precisely the sectors CSIS flags as vectors for influence. Campaign statements in 2025 correctly identified China as Canada's top emerging security and interference threat. Actions since then, partnership deals, tariff resets, and historical Brookfield-linked engagements, have softened that line. China remains the backbone of the CRINK axis, supplying dual-use technology and sanctions-evasion pathways that sustain Russia, Iran, and North Korea. Downplaying economic infiltration in the Arctic while Russia draws headlines creates a policy mismatch that leaves northern communities and resource claims exposed. The data is clear: over $117 billion in critical minerals projects sit stalled nationwide under current regulatory timelines, many in the North. Fast-track approvals capped at 24-36 months with parliamentary national-interest overrides are required to assert Canadian control, generate jobs, and counter China's dominance in downstream processing. Pair that with full elimination of interprovincial trade barriers, costing $210 billion in annual GDP per IMF modelling, and we unlock domestic energy, LNG, pipelines, and mining that deliver sovereignty through strength at home rather than selective rhetoric. NORAD modernization and NATO spending targets matter. Precision military posture matters. But measurable outcomes, lower energy costs, Canadian-owned northern infrastructure, screened foreign investment, and productivity closing the gap with the United States, matter more. Citizens deserve policies judged by verifiable results on sovereignty and affordability, not framing that ignores CSIS evidence or hedges against the primary long-term actor. Evidence over excuses. Citizens first. Canada First. Barry Sharp

I thought I might start dating, but can you imagine how conversations would go these days with most men in cities (liberal)? Why would I want to sit down with a man who'd tell me that a woman's place is in a bathroom stall next to a man, and if I don't agree, I'm a bigot?

Carney flew from Oslo to the north of Norway on the C130. Ryan is mad. If he flies private, Ryan gets mad. Charter? Ryan gets mad. Stay home? Ryan gets mad. It literally doesn't matter how Careny travels or what he does. They will literally complain about every single thing he does. The day he declared he was running as a Liberal candidate, they instantly hated him and literally complain about every single thing he does and say. Ryan, you're the problem. Not him...

The core of the Carney brand is not populism or charisma. It is competence. Canadians tend to see him as a serious, systems-oriented leader who can manage complexity and navigate uncertainty. In today’s political climate, that kind of brand has real value. abacusdata.ca/the-brand-imag…

@mark_slapinski I take it you think Israel has the right to murder 72 thousand civilian Palestinians in Gaza, of whom 20 thousand were children, as long as no chemical weapons are used on the children. How hypocritical!

Your comment is incoherent, and also wrong. The commercial to which you refer as propaganda was not placed by Canada, but by the Government of Ontario. Furthermore, this commercial was truthful, and therefore not propaganda. Finally, the commercial came several months after Trump declared economic war on the world. In conclusion, please think and check your facts before you relearn rubbish claims.

The day when people in Canada realize that Trump is not the sick villain he is portrayed to be will be the beginning of the end of Carney and the Liberals. Canada's emotional rage towards Trump and his allies is not good for the country, but it was for the Liberal Party. The Liberals knew they could not campaign over a decade of failure, corruption and economic decline; so, with the cooperation of journalists from our dear subsidized media, they instead focused on Trump and his team. The country is head first in a recession, but it doesn't matter. Canadians will follow Carney from a cliff if they think it will give Trump a middle finger. The Liberals have made the hatred of Donald Trump their whole personality. Like idiots, Canadians are easily persuaded and have not yet awakened to reality. If Canadians devoted even a fraction of their rage against Trump to demanding accountability of their own government, this country would be in much better shape. Unfortunately, you cannot reason with insanity.

For the record. Carney Can’t Have It Both Ways. “The strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must.” In Davos, Mark Carney invoked the Melian Dialogue to warn that middle powers risk ending up on the menu. Yet the irony of his own performance was hard to miss: he spoke like Athens while presiding over something much closer to Melos. Canada must drop Davos theatre. Confronted with Trump’s Greenland gambit, a 100 per cent tariff threat, and a new National Security Strategy that weaponises trade, Ottawa cannot afford one more round of slogan‑heavy multilateralism and moral posturing. The age of performative politics and virtue signalling is over; this is the era of the Trump doctrine. Carney, more than most, should recognise the shift. As Trudeau’s economic adviser, he was present at the creation of a model that traded hard leverage for international applause while Canadians faced stagnating productivity, unaffordable housing, and eroding clout in Washington. His Davos talk of “rupture” and middle‑power coalitions risks sounding like a refined version of that same globalist script. While his speech aroused nationalism in many parts of Canada, it did the country a disservice by implying that Ottawa enjoys far more power and room for manoeuvre than it actually does in a harsher Realpolitik world. Canada is not Athens; it is, uncomfortably, closer to Melos. He now needs to be honest with Canadians: the relationship with the United States is priority number one. Carney must come clean, drop the happy talk, and start implementing a serious strategy of economic sovereignty with the US as its main driver. If he wants to lead Canada through this storm, he cannot have it both ways. He must move from panels to power politics: build a tough, explicitly transactional relationship with Washington; ensure any deal with China clearly satisfies Trump’s stated national security concerns; and accept that on defence and intelligence Canada is a junior partner that must bargain accordingly. At home, he needs to stop hiding behind an overgrown bureaucracy, abandon the illusion that climate policy can double as industrial strategy, and confront the depth of alienation in Alberta, which increasingly sees Confederation as a mechanism for enriching eastern elites while treating the West as a carbon colony. The choice is stark. Either Carney abandons his globalist reflexes and defends Canadian sovereignty with hard instruments of statecraft, or he becomes Trudeau with better lines – a Melian orator in an Athenian world that has run out of patience for beautiful speeches from the weak.
