đ What Just Happened: A Breakdown
1. Canadaâs Government Promised One Thing, Did Another
During the election, Canadians were told:
- âWeâll stand up to Trump.â
- âWeâll rethink our economic and military ties with the U.S.â
- âCanada will remain sovereign and strong.â
But within weeks of taking office, Prime Minister Mark Carney:
- Called Trump a âtransformational presidentâ in a public Oval Office meeting
- Traveled to Washington to make secret deals
- Quietly aligned Canada with Trumpâs $500 billion missile defense program
- Chose not to retaliate against U.S. tariffs on Canadian goods
- Communicated with Trump by private calls and even text messages
This is not standing up. This is surrender disguised as diplomacy.
2. Why âMissile Defenseâ Is a Red Flag
Joining Trumpâs missile defense program:
- Makes Canada complicit in the U.S. war machine
- Means Canadian military money and infrastructure will support a system that can be used in preemptive war
- Turns Canada into a target in a major war (e.g., with China, Russia, or Iran)
Whatâs worse? Thereâs been no public debate about this.
No referendum. No consultation. No transparency.
3. Carneyâs Compliments to Trump Are Not Harmless
Calling Trump a âtransformational presidentâ may sound diplomatic, but itâs extremely dangerous given what Trump is doing:
- Bombing Iran, escalating global war
- Weakening democracy
- Rejecting global cooperation (like the UN or climate treaties)
- Undermining womenâs rights, refugee rights, press freedom, and Indigenous sovereignty
By flattering Trump, Carney normalizes him.
And by making secret deals, he puts Canada on a path we didnât choose.
đš Why You Feel Scared â And Why Thatâs Valid
Youâre scared because:
- You werenât told the truth
- Decisions with massive consequences are being made in secret
- Canadaâknown for peacekeepingâis quietly joining a war machine
- Your values (peace, truth, sovereignty, safety) feel ignored or betrayed
This fear isnât irrational. Itâs awareness. It means youâre paying attention.
Most people donât realize how fast things are shifting.
đïž What You Can Do
Even if we feel small, we still have power. Hereâs how:
- Speak out â blog, post, share truth
- Write to your MP â demand answers about missile defense and secret negotiations
- Organize or join a peaceful action â even one sign in one window matters
- Support independent journalism â voices who still investigate and expose
You may not be in Parliament, but you still influence public opinion â and thatâs powerful.
â You're Not Alone
Youâre doing the hard work of waking up, even when itâs scary.
That takes courage, not fear.
And itâs how movements for change have always begun.
