Perrin Beatty discusses the rationale behind his organization's letter.

Biggest blunder of Canada is that they think they are the only country which follows Rule of Law.
1st start respecting rule of law of other countries too.
rule of law? justinder unleashed military on peaceful truck protesters . he was behaving like Xi Jinping
Mainly because of fundamentalists such as Punjabi Khalistani Sikhs 👳🏽♂️👳🏽♂️👳🏽♂️
I hope your a Canadian....it gives me a hope that yesss some Canadians have insight into the india-canada diplomatic row 😪
Even ndp leader Jagmeet Singh is a Khalistani sympathizer
When I was a kid I thought Canada is in USA. I was damn right.
When i was kid i thought canada is super power like usa 😝😝😝
@@pika_pika_pikachu143 They might not be super power, but decent nation, only present Leadership is confuse and tries to become overnight hero.
The government of Canada does not need to respond when they are so passionately defended by this CBC reporter.
Ikr, was thinking the same thing
CBC is the unofficial spokesperson for Trudeau.
Canada was considered unserious in the "Indo-Pacific" region for at least over a decade. Thanks for the update CBC.
At least Perrin Beatty is speaking some actual realistic sense.
I hope voters finally realize what a joke the Liberal government is.
They know! But that is half the reason why they vote for him they hate Canada and they want Canada to look like a joke!
The illiberal liberals , The phenomenon runs worldwide at this point Lol
We can see how the government runs its foreign policy by the way US handled the India issue and how we did it.
The reality is there is no foreign policy under JT’s government. Only domestic politics and electoral brownie points matter
It's too hard to please jagmeet😂 for Trudeau
India considers Canada a friend, always has. Indians have a lot of respect and love for Canadians and Canada. Unfortunately, Canada doesn’t take India’s concerns seriously. It’s been ignoring India’s security concerns since 1981.
@@shantanushekharsjunerft9783
Ignoring security concerns is one thing. But to normalise gang criminals, drug peddlers and even terrorists is something that will not bode well for Canada though most people of Canada have nothing to do with this terror appeasing policy.
Fraudeau must be thinking he's some kind of Machiavelli, he's NOT!
US didn’t do a great job at it FYI .
Declining economy, airhead PM, weak military, no surprise.
The government of Canada cannot find solutions for basic needs of Canadians like housing, affordability, job market and ..., how come they want to have a larger role in international relations?!
Trade deals in order to not depend upon a single trade partner should the tariff nonsense resume. If you look at the Federal govt's responsibilities: "Oversees things that affect the entire country, such as the postal service, national defense, the Supreme Court, passports, federal income tax, and employment insurance." Housing isn't on the list. Private entrepreneurs build houses according to market demand. There is no central housing authority like there was in the USSR.
We have a Prime Minister who has embarrassed us internationally on countless occasions. That's the problem.
International capabilities come with strong economic and military capabilities....which are geared from competitiveness, something Canada does not focus on regardless of the size of the population. That is why US and China used Canada as ping pong ball during 2-Micheals Huawei thing. And India beat up on Canada but not the US when accused of hits carried out in those countries.
Canada is trying to punch above its weight while riding on US back.
Because we are represented by a clown.
Another win for crazy socks! Serves us right for putting in power an individual who's only job in life was a 6 month professorship stint in which he managed to knock-up a student!
Canadians elected a literature major as the PM and he appointed a history major as a FM. What else did we expect. This government spends more time talking and less time doing anything.
How can people not take Canada seriously when our leader has the cutest sock collection around?
Canadian's no longer take canada seriously! This country is a joke and the best we can do is take what we can as canadian's and leave nothing behind!
@@charlesward9486may be in future canada gets a visionary leader
We still believe that tussle between India and canada can be solved only if the canadian pm wishes to do so.
We don't have a leader ,just a joke
Honestly, we don't invest in the military like we should. So Canada shouldn't be surprised. We have natural resources that the world wants, but we don't want to invest in them. Eg. The pipeline. We attract very talented and skilled people around the world but when they come here, we use so many roadblocks that they feel discouraged and go to the States. So yes, if I am the rest of the world, I wouldn't take Canada seriously either.
Canada's shrinking role on the international stage can be attributed to factors like a focus on domestic issues, reduced military spending, changing global dynamics, and a shift in foreign policy priorities. Additionally, evolving trade relationships and geopolitical shifts may contribute to Canada's perceived diminishing influence.
And let’s talk about the role the PM has had on Canada’s diminishing role on the international stage. Aside from his bad collection of socks and painful rhetoric, while Justin Trudeau's has emphasized multilateralism and global cooperation, his policies, such as a focus on domestic issues and environmental concerns, have contributed to a reduced emphasis on traditional foreign policy and global influence. His government's approach to international affairs has sparked debates about Canada's role on the world stage during his tenure.
It’s time for a change Canada! Let’s all make sure we vote in 2025!! 🗳️
Canada is an insignificant country that thinks too highly of itself.
International role is perception; hence, a form. The economy is the substance.
"relationships are perception, money is substance" -- bootlicking reform-Con "Canadian"
Maybe we just don’t need to have all these excessive positions.
Is this a shock to anyone? Allow me to just remind everyone that our commander in chief is a drama teacher, that is all.
Don't forget failed.. a failed drama teacher.
🇮🇳 ❤❤❤❤❤ 🇨🇦 but security and prosperity is vital for us 🙂
Where is CBC coverage of Farmers Protest in Germany? I see NO videos on CBC News pages.
Ok, so why is this reporter speaking on behalf of the government?
Good, we need to focus on Canada
The unfortunate truth is we have nothing to offer except for including gender language and carbon pricing on trade deals. We need to be a responsible energy producer in the world and use that as leverage in the international stage.
"lets try and leverage the entire international-community with Albertan Swamp-Tar" -- bootlicking reform-Con "Canadian"
@dbmuir8683 😂😂😂😂😂 Just how much information and facts do you need to take the Liberal horse blinders off lol. Most Canadians, and the entire world, knows we're are a joke because of the Trudeau activists.
has nothing to do with the leader. Canada is not the US. @@FirstName-rt9uf
let's be real the rest of the world doesn't care either way, trudeau or no trudeau@@FirstName-rt9uf
Do you really believe its carbon pricing and gender language
How can anyone take Canada seriously? We can't even seem to get the PM a working aircraft.
In the world stage, Canada is a follower not a leader. This needs to change with strong leadership, commitment to peace and neutrality.
All neutral countries have no voice on the world stage. It would be going backwards. No country has ever stopped to think "oh, what do the Swiss or the Irish think about Palestine or climate change, etc.?"
Oh, consider me surprised 😂😂
Canada lives in an alternative reality where it thinks it is important 😂
IT'S VERY VERY RARE to see a CBC post allow for comments. Usually the CBC doesn't want to hear from average Canadians.
How can a colony of USA can have its own foreign policy!!!???😊
Because of incompetence at the Federal government level. We have changed into something that PM's of even 2 decades ago would be horrified by. It almost like we are not in control of own our policy. And if we are not..who is?
WEF.
@@DLRS222 I don't buy that. We mirror American policy exactly now. Hasnt always been than way. The WEF is just a smokescreen.
Come on! Canada contributed gendered language at the G20! How can that account for nothing?
lol
Canada still have indo-pacific strategy 😂😂
8 years of liberals wtf you think would happen
Thank you for saying this.
Is Canada 😂a player in world politics 😂
Okay 😂😂😂😂😂
We don't take things seriously. We have a population that doesn't think the outside world affects us.
The country is a failed nation. A full audit on the failure is urgently needed. The manufacturing of many materials items and things are needed inside this country, from start to finish, utilizing resources with everything for sale. Our missed failed opportunities. The taxing of Canadian people to keep their lives alive in January is horrible. To be recognized on a world stage is kind of a joke. The north arctic needs attention. The military should be looked at . Addressing food is important. I’m not sure why we have people growing weed everywhere, for Canadian people, using resources to pollute people in the mind, but no program for a Canadian made solution to growing lettuce or fresh fruit in January from Canada. It feels like we live inside a prison inside Canada, and everything that could help the people inside Canada is thrown away outside of Canada. And with no vision of future rebuilding or development of any programs for years. It’s on the verge of implosion with debt for decades and feels like a little rump Canada.
Lol yikes. Definitely a touch grass moment here. Things aren't that bad and Canada is an awesome place to live. Get out there and try some 29% thc like I just did ✌️
We have a HR lady instead of a Prime Minister.
It’s not a good idea to look down upon, talk down to other countries. Every country has their own problems which Canada must respect.
CANADA was sent to the kiddie table eight years ago and JUSTINE DILDEAU is still not allowed to talk to the adults.
However Canada's role in providing shelters to terrorists is increasing. Terrorists who are paramount in drug ,racketeering and mafia. This Govt has a special soft side towards criminals and hence Canada's role is declining.
When i was kid i always think Canada was one state of USA due to location of Alaska. Now i think it was true.
Who going to take the responsibility for this? Prime Minister of Canada? No, he will not...
As the USA fades, so will Canada. We do not have the muscle.
The USA is not fading. It is still, and will continue to be, the global leader on many fronts. As far as global powers are concerned, right now it's China that's facing all kinds of internal turmoil - demographic decline, businesses leaving hand over fist, high rate of youth joblessness, real estate crisis . . .
@@JJJJ-gl2ufIt is the rest of the world rising
They are not going to control By The American Empire anymore
Face it, canada is now a joke, a bad joke of a country not worth defending!
Exactly. If there was a war tomorrow I could not volunteer to fight for this country. There is nothing it genuinely stands for, besides diploma mills and RE speculation.
A broken heart world comes here. To hide from their trouble not ours non-canadian. John, speaks. Canadian not American.
Nothing to offer accept a tent and cold weather. ..maybe a job at Tim Hortons..
Canada has Never been an important player in global affairs. That was just a fiction we invented.
No one wants to carry dead waight 😂
First stop supporting terrorists.
And prove to the Global community that Canada is a country with thriving democracy and minimum rule of law.
LOL canada is a joke now 😂😂😂
Oh BUT ...trudoo STILL thinks he is an Emperor AND an International diplomatic figure....EVEN WHEN FEWER AND FEWER COUNTRY WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH HIM.... AMAZING...?
Canada has no role in international geopolitics.
😂😂
When u choose joker as pm of country what would be our role in geopoltics..😂😂😂
I as a person don't aim to be a statistic I aim to go above the norm, when you write your mission statement if it sounds generic- so are you.
substantive human rights choice for divine central authority unity
Getting serious😂when you have a joker Justin running the show🎉❤
CBC 😂
So what..
How much of this has to do canada not joining the "coalition of the willing"?
justIn is just bent toward the USA now😂😏
TBH, Canada is coming to the real position they weigh according to their population and military might .
This boomer just wants us to drill more oil. Hard pass
Resources are under provincial jurisdiction... Canada is too decentralized. We cannot have a united front on energy, climate change, disease pressure, etc. The provinces hold too much power.
Canada has to follow the USA to keep existing. The country has never had a big place in the world.
I own all. Everyone sings it. Do not use it. A form of art. Mine. All want ? You ,me. Here now. 2024. Jan 18. John.
Lol Canada doesn't care. We rock and everyone knows it 🇨🇦 🎸
Canada has a population of 40 million people, verses nations with upwards of 1 Billion.
Canada has always been a domestic focused, peaceful nation.
Which, is why we are so valued as an immigration destination.
Does Canada, or Canadians want to be a global player in military conflicts in the Indo Pacific region - or - do we want better health care & housing affordability ?
Canadian Government policy has always reflected the demands of Canadians which are domestic based policies.
Offence Based Military policies have never been our priority, because it has never been necessary; Can anyone name a nation or organization which we are at / were at war with ?
Does Canada want to be , or need to be a global military power ?
Or do we want a a professional well trained military which can contribute to International Missions when deemed necessary?
Do we want a Aircraft Carrier so we can go and bomb someone half way around the planet, or better dental care for our Kids?
Be honest, Canadians have a long standing policy of NOT getting involved in military conflicts, which is why we are so respected internationally, and, why we are so shocked and offended at the notion that another foreign Government may be targeting and murdering our Citizens.
Also, harbouring criminals from other countries and giving them license to openly threaten their diplomats and politicians under the garb of “ freedom of expression”. I, as an Indian, have always admired Canadian values of peace, neutrality and focus on citizen welfare. But the K issue has been politicised by the present Canadian PM and relations between the two countries have nosedived right now. Wonder what’ll happen in the future!
we spend nothing on defence, so we can't be taken seriously
Henry Perrin Beatty... Former Progressive Conservative party MP that has clearly used his influence to become a registered government lobbyist. I normally resent those types of people. (Former politicians that use their connections to become lobbyists.)
It's also worth noting that according to the Canadian Encyclopedia. When Beatty was defeated in the 1993 federal election. He returned to private life as director of 2 telecommunications companies and wrote a column for the Toronto Sun, and in 1995 Beatty became president and CEO of the Canadian Broadcasting Corp., which he left in 1999. Did they mention that this former politician turned government lobbyist used to be the President and CEO of CBC?
Take it from an American paying his own Healthcare and buying arms for half the globe, being on the world stage is overrated
Goodluck trying to work with Korea or Japan without India. Both countries are focused on Asia and we don't have much to offer besides gender languages and vague platitudes. Korea would gladly replace us in the markets where we're competitive - particularly in nuclear, pharma, green energy and high tech manufacturing.
The sad reality is Trudeau destroyed our reputation in that part of the world. We are not getting it back until he's gone. We are also going to be a small power rather than a middle power. Thanks Trudeau, you took what was nice about Canada and made it into a nightmare.
Losing India, Israel and China in an year 😢😢
Looks like you just wake up 😂 it's been decade anyway congratulations. Without America what you got 😮
Indo-pacific means India...
US's role is our role who gives a dam about canadas role😂😂😂😂
I dont even understand how we are in the g7, we are tag along wimps
Answer is get rid of Trudeau and JAGMEET.
Based.
fk elect this guy to office sounds like he knows exactly whats going on
He was a former Progressive Conservative MP that went on to become the director of 2 telecommunications companies. He was also the former President of the CBC from '95-'99, and then use his connections to become a government lobbyist apparently.
Funny how they don't mention any of that.
u got every thing but no human resources.
u have 2 options import radical islamists or hard working asians and south americans.
Name one large country friend of Canada. Thats right JT and CF have unfriended Canada from rest of the world
home crisis big issue . Justin fail in every sector
Walk out side today and ask your self about climate change do you realy believe you may boil away tomorrow
It's going to be zero one day...if current problems not going to fix fast
If INDIAN govt. assassinated a CANADIAN citizen, why is Trudeau NOT answering these questions -
1) How did that citizen got ‘citizenship’ when he already tried to forge paperwork at least 2-3 times before getting that ?
2) Why was he given ‘citizenship’ when already was on ‘INTERPOL LIST’ ?
3) He was on a ‘No fly’ list of passengers in one of American airlines but still became CANADIAN.
4) When you give citizenships to TERRORISTS of LARGEST DEMOCRACY in the world, you know you’re not A DEMOCRACY or SUPPORTING DEMOCRACY.
5) When you impose EMERGENCY and FREEZE BANK ACCOUNTS, you DO NOT HAVE RIGHTS to talk about FREEDOM OF SPEECH. 😂
Anybody can get Canadian citizen . Who are true Canadian the Canadian doesn't know what are Canadian position in any world problem Israel Hamas Russia Ukraine .etc when you get mixed population your voice cannot get heated you appeared to be noise better to avoid .we 1.4 billion people speak many language but speak in one voice Jai hind
We have our own issues .... we are not USA ... i dont manage my neighbor ... mind your won business
But then u poke noss in internal matters of other nations and harbour terrorists and give them citizenship
Is Canada a real country anyway !
I disagree, we have the infostructure we do have laws, we do have sovernty which Canada used to boast and be proud of. Canada has provided arms and training to Ukraine, Canada is not a Bully nation and does not need or require to resort to bully tactics unless forced too. . Diplomacy and giving plenty of aid to countries that desperately need it is what Canada has done, South Africa can take countries to court and spend the money, Canada has been a supporting role in NATO, NORAD, The UN. Canadians are not the United States.
U r not 😂
That's his opinion. He must be Conservative!
So what if he’s a conservative, liberal, NDP, Bloc, or green? He sees the decline of Canada in the world stage. This is serious stuff - whether you like it or not, this impacts our quality of life.
he's a former conservative caucus-member--absolutely disgusing that CBC wouldn't disclose that at the beginning of this segment
Ummm... no. The entire world knows the Trudeau activists are a useless joke.
@very_awake Most cons don't believe in climate change. Their opinions are much less valuable when they dont believe in facts
He's still a patriot and a Canadian.
Mr. Beatty, are you representing the UK, Australia, the EU, or Canada? The Government of Canada's job is to follow national policy, and Foreign Policy is part of it to safeguard long-term Canadian interests at home and abroad. The business community you represent is responsible for improving processes, production and viability in the international markets instead of criticizing the Federal Government for doing more or less.
Post-pandemic, the government of Canada did its best to keep hopes alive for Canadian citizens. Now, Canadian businesses are responsible for creating a favourable work environment to trigger innovation, competitiveness and ease of production in service or manufacturing sectors. The amount of subsidies the Government of Canada has provided to manufacturers, service providers and agriculture producers in the past five years is second to none among the G20 countries. Speaking for the truth and upholding the balance in international politics have repercussions in today's polarized world. However, that does not mean putting trade or economy over principal stands on regional and international issues that may have unwanted outcomes.
Found Trudeau's burner account!
@@daledobach4263 I am not familiar with French!!
It's also worth noting that the person they interviewed Beatty... Is a former Progressive Conservative MP that become the director of 2 telecommunications companies upon leaving politics. He was the president of the CBC from '95-'99 (funny that they would have left that part out.) and now he has apparently leveraged those connections in the press and politics to become a political lobbyist.
@@dennisheyes4561 This is very interesting, you have mentioned it. His tone and content indicated his vested interest in portraying the picture he emphasized. I did not want to say it; thanks for educating me on that.
