Sen. Peter Boehm, a former diplomat, told CBC's Power & Politics that Carney's remarks were the "most consequential" delivered by a Canadian prime minister since Louis St. Laurent — minister responsible external affairs at the time — laid out Canada's post-Second World War foreign policy direction in 1947.

Louise Blais, a former Canadian ambassador to the United Nations, told Power & Politics that she thinks Carney is attempting to position Canada as a leader among the middle powers.

I'm terrified conservatives will win the next election

It seemed like that was a real possibility in the last one so you never know. People like simple answers and conservatives play on that tendency all the time. Carney seems to have the right idea here but if he isn't able to keep the narrative from shifting to something that conservatives can use to make the idiots angry (which they seem pretty good at) then he could be in trouble.
