This is the most visible manifestation yet of the idea Carney voiced at Davis of the "middle powers" coming together in mutual support and in defence of multilateralism and respect for international law.

🇪🇺🇨🇦 Here's the main section of Carney's speech in Brussels about becoming an Associate Member of the EU. From rare minerals and sustainability to defence and freedom of movement, this is what sensible grown-up politics sounds like when it's based upon cooperation, democracy and the rule of law.

That's fine, but as you know and Von der Leyen must also know, there is no such thing as "associate membership" in the EU Treaty. Under Article 49, Canada would not be considered a European state. NATO handles most Euro-defense issues; the EU has non-NATO members.

Amazing speech by Carney to the European Parliament - free movement, common market, ...
Not hard to see how his stint as Chairman of the Bank of England through the worst of the Brexit years influenced him.
Well done Brexit and Trump for achieving what I never thought would be possible.
