John Turley-Ewart on Why Carney’s Davos Speech Changed the Game

In today’s Three Minutes, Stephen LeDrew speaks with John Turley-Ewart, contributing columnist with The Globe and Mail, about just how right P.M. Carney was about the end of the post WW2 rules-based order, and how Canada must up its game to survive.Turley-Ewart argues the speech was one of the strongest delivered by a Canadian prime minister in decades, not because of rhetoric, but because it acknowledged the hard truth - Canada is entering a period of global rupture where old assumptions no longer apply.They discuss that collapse of the comfortable post-war order, the end of Canadian naivete about trade and security, and why Canada can no longer assume allies will always step in. The conversation also turns to whether Canada is capable of doing what Carney outlined - cutting regulatory inertia, rebuilding infrastructure, fixing ports, and moving from complacency to execution.This is a clear-eyed discussion about sovereignty, purpose, and whether Canadians are prepared to meet the moment they are now facing.
