Carney: Canada is a mosaic, not a melting pot. And this is the distinction that matters. Because a mosaic doesn't dissolve or blend its pieces. Each is stitched to each and all the pieces hold all. And the beauty is in the arrangement, not in the blending.

Carney: What one can't do at this point in a rapidly shifting world order is rely on one set of institutions, one grouping, one country to provide the answers. You have to know what you want, what you need, how you serve your citizens, and then go and get it.

County Mayo made my family. It’s great to be back.

Carney on Pierre Poilievre's criticism that Canada already has a trade deal and that these trips aren't helpful for Canadians: We are not satisfied with the status quo. Maybe the leader of the opposition is, but we're not ... the opportunity for Canada in Europe is as big, if not bigger, than any other economy.

Like millions of Canadians, my ancestors left Ireland in the shadow of the famine. They carried hope across the Atlantic and helped build the Canada we know today. To return to Mayo, and receive a welcome such as this, is a testament to the life they built for their children — and to the indomitable spirit of the Irish, everywhere — whose pride in their heritage is unbroken by distance and time.

A fabulous day & evening with Canadian PM @MarkJCarney in the company of many in the 🇮🇪🇨🇦 ecosystem including @ErinMcGreehan @Fiona_Kildare

Carney: The post Cold-war world rules-based order is breaking down The only way for medium-sized powers to avoid becoming vassals of either the United States or China is through commercial and strategic integration, as exemplified by the European Union.

Europe should continue expanding by welcoming new members while also building stronger partnerships—or even deeper forms of integration—with the United Kingdom, Canada, Latin America, the Indo-Pacific region, and Africa. Only by creating a broad network of aligned economies and strategic interests can Europe maintain its autonomy and influence in an increasingly multipolar world
