Canadian PM May Have Stood Up To Trump, But He's Still An Imperialist Banker

Canadian PM May Have Stood Up To Trump, But He's Still An Imperialist Banker

People who are sick and tired of Donald Trump’s bullying of other countries, including Canada, took a liking to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney when he stood up and rebuked Trump, saying the relationship between Canada and the United States has fundamentally changed.

Professor Richard Wolff is an author & co-founder of the organization Democracy at Work. You can find his work at rdwolff.com.
