And so, I think we can derive from values what Carney\u2019s values are,&nbsp;<strong>what values he thinks Canadians do and should hold<\/strong>, what we can conclude about what he\u2019s already done for Canada and on the international stage, and&nbsp;<strong>where things are headed in the future<\/strong>. And so, now, the first, I\u2019m going to take Carney\u2019s Values book apart in two ways.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>The&nbsp;<strong>first<\/strong>&nbsp;thing I want to tell you is&nbsp;<strong>what he thinks Canadians\u2019 values are<\/strong>. Okay, so he\u2019s setting himself up as an arbiter of the Canadian ethos. And to do that in his book, in the first couple of chapters, and then at the end of the book,&nbsp;<strong>he tells us all what makes Canada the country that it is.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>And so, we want to delve into that. All right. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>So,\u00a0<strong>Carney\u2019s conclusion<\/strong>\u00a0with regards to\u00a0<strong>Canada\u2019s core values are a leftist, utopian, globalist view of the Western tradition.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>So, he believes, for example, that the core Canadian values are:<\/em><br><em>\u2666&nbsp; &nbsp;fairness and equity,<\/em><br><em>\u2666&nbsp; &nbsp;resilience and adaptability,<\/em><br><em>\u2666&nbsp; &nbsp;sustainability and responsibility, and<\/em><br><em>\u2666&nbsp; &nbsp;community and cooperation.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Okay, so the first thing I\u2019d like to do, those are&nbsp;<strong>all terms that sound positive<\/strong>&nbsp;and that could, in principle, bring people together on the basis of a vision. Fairness and equity, resilience and adaptability, sustainability and responsibility, community and cooperation.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>But the first thing I\u2019d like to point out to all of you who are listening is that although Carney claims that those are core Canadian values,<strong>\u00a0that claim is not correct.<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Those are core globalist, socialist, utopian, net zero promoting environmentalist values.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>But the core Canadian values are actually derived from the Judeo-Christian,<br>Western, broadly Western, and English common law tradition.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>And so, I\u2019m going to outline what those are, just so you can see the contrast between those values, which are the true Canadian values, and<strong>&nbsp;Carney\u2019s values,&nbsp;<\/strong>which&nbsp;<strong>have this patina or aura of high-flown positive emotion, but bear little relationship to the genuine historical reality<\/strong>&nbsp;and do&nbsp;<strong>not<\/strong>&nbsp;describe the&nbsp;<strong>values that made Canada the wealthy, free, productive, Western democracy<\/strong>&nbsp;that it is.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>So, Canada is actually founded on the principles of individual liberty and rights,<br>the rule of law, equality and justice. And equality there doesn\u2019t mean<br>equality of outcome, and it doesn\u2019t mean economic equality.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>It means equality of value before the law, and equality of opportunity, and responsibility and order<\/strong>. And so, those are values that are very<strong>&nbsp;different than the value set<\/strong>&nbsp;that&nbsp;<strong>Carney is putting forward<\/strong>. And so, then you might ask, if Carney didn\u2019t derive what he believes Canadian values to be from the historical reality of Canada,<strong>&nbsp;from what source did he derive his values?<\/strong>&nbsp;Now, you also might wonder why it\u2019s important to even delve into this.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>And well, the first conclusion we could draw is that Carney wouldn\u2019t have written a whole book about values if he didn\u2019t think that it was important to delve into values. And he certainly wouldn\u2019t have written a book revealing his own values if he didn\u2019t think it was important to communicate to Canadians and people around the world what he thinks Canadian values and his values are and should be. So, my focus on values, although I certainly believe, as he does, that values are fundamentally important,<strong>&nbsp;I\u2019m focusing on values because that\u2019s the focus that Carney himself chose.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>All right, so this is where<strong>&nbsp;we can link the facts of his resume to an analysis of his genuine motivations.<\/strong>&nbsp;So, let\u2019s first look in more detail at how Carney translates his core values into the beginnings of policy. All right, so Carney in his book Values outlines&nbsp;<strong>his support for three of what I regard as the least credible ideas that have emerged on the international landscape and the intellectual landscape in the last 20 years.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"630\" height=\"450\" data-attachment-id=\"423503\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/climatescience.press\/?attachment_id=423503\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-502.png?fit=630%2C450&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"630,450\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"image\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-502.png?fit=630%2C450&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-502.png?resize=630%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"A cartoon illustration comparing 'Equality' and 'Equity.'
