The Carney speech will go down as significant in history during this unprecedented moment in America’s nearly 250 years of democracy. It’s sad that truth has become a rare thing in US and global politics. I’m grateful for someone willing to stand up to unconscionable bully mobsters.

Carney's speech was historic, and written by him while on a plane. It's sadly historic times, America is now a pariah because the bottom line, Trump well beyond of his capabilities. ..should never have been a nominee as President. Watching from Australia

As someone from the Netherlands, I can tell you one thing. The trust in the USA has totally evaporated. In just one year! We also aren't just going to back the USA's military endeavours anymore. For instance in Iran. Trumps America first has become America alone. I fear it will take atleast a generation of good and sane American leaders and the total destruction of MAGA and their culture, before we'll ever trust the USA again. I'm glad my pension fund has already sold their US treasury bonds. And I hope they will further stop investing in most (not all) American companies.

The Madman Trump has in ONE year destabilized the world order and destroyed our democracy. With the help of the rogue and lawless Supreme Court, of course.

As a Canadian I have to say how sick I am of people like Gov. Newsom and others lamenting that Europeans and the rest of the world need to do more to fix the problem that is Trump. How about Americans go in and clean up that mess that is their government. They all need to do more and kick that criminal out of their house on Pennsylvania Ave.

You forgot, you can build your reputation for 80 years and destroy it in less than a year.

As a Canadian I am immensely proud of our Prime Minister and highly appreciative of my luck to have been born in this great country. I'm sorry Michael but, if nothing else, there is a permanent rupture between Canada and the USA. Many Canadians will never trust your country again.

Yes, as a Canadian, I am extremely proud of our PM. Mark Carney is doing an extraordinary job for our country.
