Richard Robertson: Carney’s Palestine recognition a foreign policy blunder

Last week, Prime Minister Mark Carney announced that Canada intends to recognize a Palestinian state in September. This would be a dangerous, highly premature decision — and a foreign policy blunder that could embarrass Canada while compounding the crisis in the Middle East instead of bringing Israelis and Palestinians anywhere closer to a lasting peace.


If it means winning the Muslim-Left vote bloc then Carney is happy.

Canada’s reputation was destroyed under Trudeau’s reign.

There are no eggs left to break so Carney may as well go along to get along with whoever he might strike a deal with.
