JUST IN: Carney Urged To Launch A New Atlantic Charter Without Washington

🌐 Twelve of Canada's most experienced hands just proposed a new Atlantic Charter. One line in it is aimed straight at Washington. In August 1941, Roosevelt and Churchill met in Placentia Bay, Newfoundland, and agreed on eight short points that helped give birth to the United Nations and NATO. Eighty-five years later, a cross-partisan group of former ministers, ambassadors and trade negotiators wants Canada and Europe to write the sequel. The paper landed just days before Mark Carney meets Ursula von der Leyen in Montreal. It invites Japan, South Korea, Britain, Australia and New Zealand to the founding table, and it leaves the door open to Washington on one condition. 🔍 IN THIS VIDEO: 📜 The 1941 Atlantic Charter and why it still matters 🇨🇦 Who wrote "A Middle Power Charter for a Troubled World" and why it is not partisan ⚠️ Why the authors say the US "no longer plays by the rules it wrote" 🧭 The 5 principles of the proposed Middle Power Charter 🌏 Why every proposed founding partner already has a trade deal with Canada 🚪 The one line that keeps Washington's chair at the table, empty for now 🇪🇺 What to watch at the Carney–von der Leyen summit in Montreal 📊 KEY FACTS: Atlantic Charter (August 1941): 8 points, no treaty, and it became the blueprint for the UN, Bretton Woods and NATO Middle Power Charter: 12 authors and 3 publishing institutions (Carleton NPSIA, Canadian Global Affairs Institute, U of Calgary School of Public Policy) 5 proposed principles, including a pledge never to use trade as an instrument of coercion 5 proposed founding partners: Japan, South Korea, UK, Australia and New Zealand Canada–EU linked through CETA; Japan, UK, Australia and NZ through the CPTPP; Canada–Korea FTA in force since 2015 The EU is Canada's second-largest trading partner A majority of Canadians support closer formal ties with the EU ⏱️ CHAPTERS: 0:00 Placentia Bay, 1941 0:45 The Paper That Landed Before Montreal 1:30 Carney's Davos Warning: "A Rupture, Not a Transition" 2:20 Strasbourg, the UN and the Practical Plumbing 3:10 The 12 Authors Behind the Charter 4:40 What the Atlantic Charter Achieved 5:30 "No Longer Plays by the Rules" 6:15 The 5 Principles of a Middle Power Charter 8:20 The Guest List and Canada's Trade Map 9:20 The One Line Aimed at Washington 10:20 Skeptics and the Reality Check 10:50 What to Watch in Montreal 🔗 SOURCES & RELATED: A Middle Power Charter for a Troubled World (Expert Group on Canada-U.S. Relations) Carleton University – Norman Paterson School of International Affairs Canadian Global Affairs Institute University of Calgary – School of Public Policy Mark Carney, World Economic Forum Davos 2026 Address Canada–EU Summit, Montreal 🔔 SUBSCRIBE for daily deep dives into Canada's geopolitical rise, its new alliances, and the moves Ottawa makes before they hit the headlines. 👇 Drop your thoughts below: Should Carney sign a formal middle-power charter in Montreal, or keep it practical and let the principles come later? #Canada #MarkCarney #MiddlePower #AtlanticCharter #CanadaEU #VonDerLeyen #Montreal #CanadaNews #Geopolitics #TradeWar #Trump #CETA #CPTPP #Diplomacy #NATO #CanadianPolitics #Europe #Japan #CanadaNext #CanadaUSRelations 📩 Business & inquiries: [email protected] Website: https://canadanext.blog/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/canadanextoffical/ X: https://x.com/canadanextt 📱 BIG NEWS: The CanadaNext app is here.
