Harrison "They're the same things that Canada was willing to play ball with back in October. And so the Prime Minister needs to be asked pretty clearly now, what is the strategy?" "What is the approach now that we've got effectively a political crisis and an economic crisis ticking... show more

Harrison "But it was the Prime Minister that said we have to deal with the world as it is. This is the world as it is." "So what is Canada meaningfully doing to advance our interests in this time rather than griping from the sidelines?" Kate Harrison

Kate Harrison "But it's inflation as a government slayer. Ultimately, I think Mr. Starmer really struggled and his predecessor struggled to get a handle on the cost of living crisis and the affordability crisis." "It's a potential warning for our Prime Minister that domestic issues are really what drives voters to the ballot box" Kate Harrison

Harrison "I think the Prime Minister is operating from a trust deficit, particularly on details around these things, because of how he treated the Gordie Howe Bridge and because he was loose with the facts about what that was going to mean for the Canadian side." "This is a very unprecedented situation. And so if there is a time for transparency, it is now." Kate Harrison

Kate Harrison on the Ford ad fallout "So this has been a pretty expensive waste of time for the province, but also for the federal government, who's now left to kind of pick up the pieces of something that I think was understood to be a problem for a long time." "And I suspect that the federal government knew that very well. And I think that they quite enjoyed for a long time the good cop, bad cop dance that they had with the premier and the prime minister. And now it has backfired spectacularly." "We're very far from the spring when the prime minister had a very different message. And I do wonder how that is going to play with his base of supporters that was adamant that we cannot cave to Donald Trump when it seems that is all that we have been doing since the prime minister got elected."

Harrison on Carney slow rolling the negotiations with the US "And I think it's just as likely that if Trump does poorly in the midterms that he looks to lash out and Canada will be a convenient whipping post." "I hear a lot of cutting slack and putting this at the feet of the president in terms of, you know, what Canadians are willing to withstand" "The prime minister is the one who ran the election on being able to fix this issue." Kate Harrison

Harrison "It is very, very hard to believe that we enter this new potential deal or negotiation in a better position than we were last October." "So, again, what have Canadians given up in order to get a temporary stay of execution? And what does it mean for the long term?" "The Prime Minister should make himself available to answer that."

Kate Harrison "Really, what we're seeing reported, Katie, in the media, is not all that different than a lot of the terms that were being discussed last October." "So it begs the question, what has the government been up to in that time?" "And I think in the absence of a bigger and better trade deal, it's going to be very difficult to rationalize to Canadians and perhaps more acutely to premiers, that this is in the best interest of all parties." Kate Harrison

Kate Harrison "And I think that the message that we got from the prime minister yesterday looks a little bit strange compared to the situation we have now." "I think the rupture that he's talking about looks more like a ripple." "I think that he is right now, talking about new world orders, trying to carve out a new international way of doing things as opposed to doing the job that he was elected to do, which is to get back to the negotiating table and get an agreement with our largest trading partner." "So how did the remarks on Monday tee us up to get back to the table for a discussion on trade when everything was revolved around that ostensible threat to Greenland, which now looks a lot different today than it did when Mark Carney spoke?" Then after sitting through a Cochrane lecture "It was a well crafted speech delivered to an audience that was primed for that message and I give him credit for that." "But there is a difference between speechifying and actually doing things." Kate Harrison

Harrison "I'm proposing the prime minister not go directly to Davos and poke the president squarely and firmly in the eye, which absolutely was the intent of that speech at Davos." 💥 "No, I'm proposing that we take the approach that had been taken ostensibly last fall, which is getting back to the deal table to find some common ground. " "At least start there and then perhaps revisit some of the other sectoral agreements that had been discussed just months ago that seem to be completely left off the table right now." Kate Harrison

Harrison "(Ma) also, upon questioning from one of your colleagues, failed to say clearly, as the Prime Minister has also failed to say clearly that forced labour exists in China and that we are against it and that this will be a major part of our trade conversations moving forward." "...And because the Prime Minister will not firmly denounce it, you can understand why so many people have questions about the government's position on this." Kate Harrison

Harrison "The reality is that we would not be entertaining this conversation with China if the Prime Minister had actually followed through on his promise to deliver a new economic and security partnership with the United States." "Now we're backed into a corner of having friends in China and Qatar because we failed to secure the most important trade relationship that we have." "...How do we think the US Is going to respond to pulling back from Taiwan?... I don't think it will be viewed favorably." Kate Harrison

Kate Harrison "But what the Conservatives are clearly trying to do here is say, listen, if this parliament is not functioning and it's not working, it will not be because of Conservatives being obstinate in the House." "But I think that you will find the Conservatives are going to increasingly look at, you know, where there is an opportunity to work together so as to avoid an election that no Canadians want."

Kate Harrison "I think a lot of Canadians would be surprised by, again, the depth of murders and killings of Iranian people at the heads of the Iranian regime and that this is a response to the plea of the Iranian people for a change and for democracy in that country." "And I think that, and I'm not putting this at the feet of CBC, but the news media ecosystem, in my view, in Canada... did not share those stories in a way that I think is sufficient to help again rationalize what we're seeing now." Katie Simpson "And I think there has been some analysis that I have seen is that perhaps Canada and other allies might be more comfortable supporting the US Effort in this moment because of what happened in January, because of the mass murder of protesters in the streets at the hands of the Iranian regime." Harrison "So this is an opportunity for Canada to look inward and really assess whether or not we're doing all we can to look at energy security for diplomacy's sake and getting our own exports to market."

Kate Harrison says Carney's "going to lose that crutch of the opposition being obstinate with a majority government and the government is going to come under some real scrutiny for the first time in a very long time about what they are delivering, or more appropriately not for Canadians, when they no longer can point to Pierre Poilievre and say that he's the problem because of the minority government." And he is losing an excuse not to fulfill all of his election promises! Media loses that excuse for not getting the best deal with Trump that was promised and building Canada into an economic powerhouse... Kate Harrison

Kate Harrison on Carney's video "My prediction is twofold" "One, the Prime Minister is reminding Canadians to Vandana's point everyday Canadians that Donald Trump is to blame for all of Canada's problems." "That is, even though I have a majority government, I'm really not the problem." "And I wonder what it means for next week's spring economic statement. I do think that we're going to see extraordinary spending." "We saw some comments from the IMF suggesting that the jet to DDP ratio can increase based on Canada's fiscal position." "I think the government's going to take that ball and run and they're going to use the uncertainty with the United States as a backdrop for more deficit spending." Kate Harrison

Kate Harrison on a pipeline to the BC coast "I think it again comes back to the investment environment that we create here." "...They want the certainty of the investment environment before making such investments." "And when we have arguments playing out like we do right now with a proposal on paper that might not be hypothetical but is certainly not a full one, and you're already seeing politicians react in the negative way to even something that isn't fully thought out." "In the case of Premier Eby in particular, what signal does that send to private capital about the likelihood of doing business here?" "And that's where I think if it is true that Prime Minister Carney wants to move fast and break things and do things differently, he has an opportunity, not necessarily in accepting this proposal, but going back to the root issues of why that private capital is not coming here."
