rabble.ca is considered conservative, but praise the necessity of the Chavez revolution in Venezuela here. But this piece is pro Canadian. While repeating all US/CIA lies against Maduro to praise US imperialism seems like the obvious sycophancy that is a cheap gift to provide Trump in hope of avoiding too many more slaps this week from Trump, Canada still got a few when Trump was asked any questions tangentially related to Canada.

Carney's cowardice on Venezuela fully justifies all US/Israel lies, including our far greater than Venezuela fentanyl distribution. The Venezuela control justification eventually morphed into China cannot control resources. This applies to vast majority of nations on earth who have more trade with China than US, and for Canada, oil or canola trade would justify same US action.

To the broader headline, to rabble.ca's credit, they didn't bs into a coalition of the cowards (begging for US support for all wars US has always wanted). The world as a whole has the power to collapse the US sooner than their scheduled demise. Canada's role is as simple as stopping BoC investment in US debt, and pressuring our big institutions to do the same. No US arms or other purchases that have alternatives (Boeing, Catterpillar, US tech), but most of all foreign policy opposition, and military subserviency renouncement.

If Carney's mission is to fix the US economic relationship, he is clearly failing by supporting US propagandized evil. So is Europe. Begging for US kindness, relief from insults/threats for the week, is far inferior to improving ties with China and Russia, in order to unite against evil.
