The Prime Directive Mark Carney: Defend Canada's Sovereignty and C5

June 24, 2025

The number one job of any Canadian Prime Minister – past, present, or future – is clear: to ensure that Canada exists as an independent nation.
Not as a vassal. Not as an afterthought. Not as a resource depot for foreign empires. Canada must survive – and thrive – as a sovereign country.

But today, that mission is under threat like never before. Under U.S. President Donald Trump – and soon, his ideological successor J.D. Vance – America has pursued an aggressive campaign of economic conquest against Canada. Not with tanks or missiles – but with tariffs, trade weaponization, and industrial sabotage.

This is not free trade. This is economic warfare.

Look at what’s already under siege: aluminum slapped with false “national security” tariffs, steel strategically undercut, seafood blocked and sidelined by protectionist policy, wheat distorted by subsidy flooding, the automotive sector being reshaped to suit U.S. domestic content rules, and lumber crushed by decades of softwood tariffs and litigation abuse.

These aren’t just industries. They are the pillars of Canadian sovereignty, and they’re being deliberately attacked.

We are in a crisis. And more is coming – unless we act, and act right now.

The urgency of the situation is one that Canada has never experienced in its history.

The Americans have made it clear – militarily and economically, they want Canada to become 100% dependent on the United States. Dependent on their energy. Dependent on their industry. Dependent on their policy decisions. Until, effectively, we become the 51st state – in all but name.

We can’t let that happen. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney must move quickly and decisively.
He must enforce Bill C-5 and go even further. Canada must assert its right to defend its economic independence through industrial reinvestment, aggressive trade diversification, and a political will to resist American coercion.

We need to act now – otherwise, we will be poorer. If we don’t act, we’re fucked.

And it’s not just about jobs. It’s about the country – Canada itself.

We are now talking about conditions being created where two Prairie provinces could bail. If the federal government can’t protect their industries – their livelihoods – why should they stay? We need action. Not someday. Now.

That means fast-tracking national projects that secure our future, including critical mineral extraction in the Ring of Fire, pipelines to Hudson Bay, and the B.C. Coast, energy, and transportation corridors that serve Canadian needs, not just American markets, and sovereign infrastructure, owned, built, and controlled by Canadian businesses.

This is no longer hypothetical. It’s real. It’s happening. And it’s accelerating.

This is the test of leadership. This is the test of sovereignty. This is the test of national unity.

The time to act is not later. The time is right fucking now.
