‘Rules-based order a fiction’: Canadian PM says West excused US hegemony

In a major confession from a Western leader against the unbridled and unchecked American hegemony, the Canadian PM said the Western nations “avoided calling out the gaps between rhetoric and reality” as the American hegemony helped provide public goods. Carney, without naming US president Donald Trump, who have been hostile towards Canada ​ever before assuming office a year ago, tore into the Republican leader, saying: “You cannot live within the lie of mutual benefit through integration when integration becomes the source of your subordination.”
