Female Colonel Klink Of The EU Gives A Participation Award To Mark Carney, And He Reacts Like The Clown He Is
Ursula von der Leyen is the President of the European Commission. A role which is not unlike that of the clueless Colonel Klink in the old comedy series Hogan’s Heroes. Klink was the pompous, bumbling commandant of Stalag 13. While constantly bragging about his record, he was clueless about what was taking place in his camp.
Von der Leyen thinks she is at the forefront of a new world order, and earlier this week she added another delusional liberal to the group when she announced that Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney was the first “Associate Member” of the European Union.
Her speech, to put it mildly, was a syrupy mess. Filled with undeserved platitudes for Carney and, as Reuters pointed out, the position she awarded to Canada currently doesn’t even exist.
Reuters: “There is currently no such status as “associate member” set out in the European Union’s treaties — though various versions of an associate-type of membership have been floated in the bloc over the years. Germany suggested Ukraine be an associate member as an interim stage to full accession, though the proposal failed to gain traction as some EU capitals pushed back.”
In her speech, she stated and also posted on X:
“Dear Mark, I said we must urgently reimagine our partnerships. So, I would like to work with you on opening the door for Canada to be the first associate member of the EU. We share one ocean, one set of values, one way of seeing the world. And we will now build our shared future as well – thank you for being here.”
All the while, Carney squirmed in his seat with glee, looking like a cat that had swallowed the canary. Still, all of it may be for naught, because it wasn’t exactly done in an above-board manner.
The Daily Mail reported:
But the attempt to flatter the former Governor of the Bank of England backfired, with diplomats saying they were never briefed about the proposal and that, in effect, ‘associate membership’ doesn’t even exist.
EU diplomats accused Brussels of ‘over-reach’, an accusation often leveled against Eurocrats by UK Brexiteers before Britain left the bloc.
One EU diplomat told the Mail: “This bombastic announcement is just not right.”
‘There will be a summit at the end of October, so logically they will talk about deepening the relations.
But no one has ever seen an associate membership, and no one has any idea what it means in practice. Canada is a valuable partner for the EU, one of the few currently in the world where we share the values, so it is nothing against Canada.
‘But first and foremost the member states should be the ones to express what kind of relationship the EU wants to have with any third country.’
Another added: ‘She kept this bit of associate membership out of the text until the last moment. She also did not mention it up front to EU member states.
‘It seems like she is a bit too far out in floating this. Everyone is positive about Canada, and wants to strengthen the relationship.
‘But there is a lot of uncertainty about what von der Leyen envisages by coining this label.’
They added that, in reality, the most that can likely be hoped for is a deeper trading relationship rather than ‘associate membership’, which implies Canada taking part in EU programs that it would be forced to pay into, becoming more politically integrated and potentially even having a say over the bloc’s rules.
But there would be huge barriers to overcome to establish closer ties, as swathes of Canada’s regulations are at present incompatible with EU single market rules, with high taxes on the bloc’s alcohol exports another thorny issue.
Under EU law, any granting of membership would have to be approved by the 27 member states, which is another reason they were wrong-footed.
Let’s be honest, this is nothing more than a liberal tit-for-tat, done out of spite against President Trump as he works to realign trade agreements.
Europe and Canada both reflect a mindset and worldview that create artificial problems to maintain control over their populations. This represents a corporatist structure akin to modern fascism, where instead of governments directing corporations, multinationals, guided by the World Economic Forum, instruct governments on what to do. It is a constructed social and economic model in which Western bankers hold power over the masses beneath them.
The pretentious snobbery and bureaucracy prevalent in their mutual perspective have little to do with true representative government. Ursula von der Leyen’s decision to create a status that does not exist, without consulting the members she is supposed to represent, exemplifies this arrogance.
Canada is part of the British Commonwealth, and while they scream about the “sovereignty” of their country and how Trump is trying to strip them of it, they have no problem rushing to the EU under the guise of a phony appointment.
The European Union’s trade rules do not align with those of the USMCA. The EU’s specific regulations, policies, and guidelines are not compatible with this trilateral trade agreement between the United States, Mexico, and Canada. In fact, they differ significantly.
Carney has been talking about a new world order since his visit to China in January. Now that Carney has pulled Canada out of the USMCA, he got what he wanted, and he has no one to blame but himself.
Carney’s arrogance has turned the idiom “Be careful what you wish for; you just might get it” into reality. His goal is to make himself look important and to breed hatred for America and Americans.
Au revoir, Monsieur Carney, au revoir, et bon débarras.
