I know that many here and myself included, don't appreciate his anti-worker example of the "Workers of the World Unite" being used as the lie of a corrupt regime...

However, this was a profound speech, and I would say one of Carney's best since his election as Prime Minister. A great leader recognizes their own leadership and government's faults to try and find the best way forward.

I think he's just a capitalist banker with agenda to push capitalist friendly policies but in the context of how he compares it to rules based order (a potentially good thing) I don't think this is what he meant. He says we pretend we have rules based order because it was a good thing even though we know at heart that strong powers can act outside the rules. The shop owners pretend the workers are united (a good thing) even though they know the government is corrupt and does not support the workers.
