Jo Jo Sweetie, Mr Carney is not a legitimate businessman

You guys will have to attack your leaders before it changes. Either that, or you'll all be living in mud hutts covering up with animal skins.

The RCMP issued an internal document where they believe poverty will become so widespread there will be mass civil unrest. The Liberal Party is doing their best to prove the Mounties correct.

Andrew Coyne of all people wrote this about the G7 and Carney hosting it.

The G7, Coyne wrote, has got to go with a capital G.

"The summit of the Group of Seven is over, but really it was over long before its official ending. It was over before Donald Trump walked out part way through. If you want to know the truth, it was over before it began," he began."
(Trump) left ostensibly because he had pressing business to attend to re Iran. More likely he was just bored by the sheer pointlessness of it all. I can't say I blame him," he concluded.

It's the kind of robust truth-telling thriving journalism cultures nourish and thereby flourish within. Writing in Britain's The Telegraph, Daniel Johnson asserted that the Canadian cock-up in Kananaskis signaled nothing less than "the demise of European power." Complementing Coyne, Johnson, too, noted the two-day gathering of international leaders was "over before it started" because the American president bailed after dinner on Day One.
"Blink and you miss it," he wrote.
His principal point was that no one on the international scene will truly miss these hyperinflated gatherings of the good and the great because at least six of the leaders are no longer good for much anymore, nor worth a great deal of anyone's attention span.

"A huge shift of economic, political and military power away from Europe to other continents has left the G7 looking like a convocation of imposters, masquerading as statesmen. European politicians have lived for too long in a fantasy world of which these annual summits are the window dressing," Johnson wrote.
