Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney’s address to the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, created global headlines for his criticism of US President Donald Trump and his frank admission the rules-based international order is undergoing a “rupture, not a transition”.
Carney also called on middle powers like Canada (and while he did not say so specifically, Australia) to band together to fight for their own interests:
[…]the middle powers must act together, because if we’re not at the table, we’re on the menu.
