Let me get straight to the point: Mark Carney, the Prime Minister of Canada, gave a speech in Davos that will shape the history of the 21st century. It lasted 16 minutes, you were interrupted twice by clapping, and at the end you practically left the room to a long standing ovation that paralleled Mandela’s famous speech in 1992 when FD Klerk took the stage promoting reconciliation between the world elders, the nationals in South Africa.
It is extraordinary that a banker led this discussion. His path has settled into the leadership of two powerful central banks, the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England – Carney’s sole reign since the days of the G7 central bank. And it is equally remarkable that it is a Canadian who is moving forward as a decades-long ideology of a new world that, for the most pious dreams we can ever imagine, has never before come true. A Canadian banker who cites two European thinkers, one from Greece, one from democracy, or the other from the European Union, who were assembled to subvert a tyranny that was believed to be indestructible: a communist tyranny based on the Pact of War and the Soviet Union.
Mark Carney graduated from Harvard and graduated from Oxford. These two people were high school teachers and were considered a human engine due to the power of their ideas. Ele e os seus três irmãos crearamão nessa premise. It was important to know how to come and believe that cooperation is more intelligent than individualism. Mark was a babysitter in his childhood and adolescence. And within a few years, during the Secundário student holidays, he was handing out newspapers from the country on the streets of Edmonton.
It is revolutionary speech. A brave, inspiring and brilliant text that has told me so many times. If you follow me on this weekly “conversation”, you’ll know how much I love these topics. The value of principles associated with pragmatism. The value of results linked to culture and thinking. The value of growth, or cooperation. The value of freedom associated with wealth and principles. The value and weight of mean and small “peixes” that we are afraid to make, lest we be swallowed up by tubars, when, as Carney said in other words, we are determined to have no graces that we must always respect what we hope for.
Carney sees the world’s ideas and the bank. Take a look at the world of rules and regulations. I stand for excellence and not populism. And now in Canada, the danger of telling Trump is not real. This is what strongly redefines your discussion. These are the wings on the side, they are the countries that are directly attacked, but they are the very wings that Trump and his gunmen will fight against.
I want to quickly say two or three things. Partilhá-las consigo. What is written. As Carney said, o mundo muda. And it is precisely this image that we have to deal with, it is neither a utopian nor a nostalgic world. Nobody nos da nada de borla. It’s not because we’re satisfied with the power of the hawks—whether it’s Trump or Putin—that they offer us anything. Those who give us credit, we will lose. We will lose the decade of 1930 with the Nazis, we will lose the years with Russia after the invasion of Crimea, and we will go back to losing if we capitulate with the power of Gronelândia… or Canada.
Please contact Thucídides to ensure security. The answer is obvious. It will be hard or difficult, but make sure we embrace the desire and form a true confederation of thought. We need to establish new leaders and leaders capable of different from the moral idea. To be sure on the right side, on the right side, from cooperation, the only way to be effective, survive and be happy.
By the way, a small note. I firmly believe that this new era will be the result of the ideological concepts and models of Esquerda and Direity. From now and for decades to come, there will be a split between those who credit freedom and liberal democracy and those who do not. While he defends an order based on decades and does not reject the interests of parties and defends the desire and power of the powerful against all who are not or are. While they believe in a regulated world and use technology to create cities, countries and eventually a world in an unregulated space, a libertarian world inspired by a science fiction movie. Enter, for simplicity, either good or bad. Light and shadow. Hope or resentment.
That’s something I have to look at as our presidential electors, but I’d like to see it for next week.
