"Mark Carney is intentionally being antagonistic with Trump and alienating us from America to rationalize pulling us closer to The CCP and The EU. This central banking WEF member didn't leave his coffin in Europe and travel to this resource/labor colony to help the peasantry. Nothing he is doing represents the best interests of Canadians. His loyalties lie with Davos Brussels Beijing and The City of London. Our government has been subverted. The regime in charge of Canada does not represent the best interests of Canadians.

"So the script remains the same @HNadim87 : the reason MA Jinnah Liaqat Ali Khan Fatima Jinnah Sh Mujib ZAB Benazir to IK have had to face the minus [--] formula is because the Colonial remnants of Mir Jafar and Mir Sadiq remain eager grovelling servants for Imperial masters. Only @ImranKhanPTI is standing in the way of complete capitulation. This is the most clearest articulation of why the Trump admin is supporting a military dictatorship in Pakistan: because it is ready to serve them as a colony. Nobody in Pakistan should have any doubts left over the vision of the current Pakistani regime."
