Carney: From day one, we have focused on our core missions: protecting our borders, our communities, and our way of life; transforming our economy by building our strength at home; increasing our independence by diversifying our partnerships abroad.

Carney: We are focusing our defence spending with a view to making Canada safer, more self-reliant and more prosperous. We are relying on Canadian know-how and establishing partnerships with a wider range of reliable allies. We have become the first non-European country to join the SAFE mechanism.

Carney: We've secured more than 20 economic and security partnerships across five continents over the past year. Our existing free trade deals already provide access to 1.5 billion consumers. We're now on track to double that market this year with deals from India to ASEAN.

Carney: We're in the process of becoming the world's alternative to China as a reliable supplier of critical minerals. We're a trusted partner in a world that's anything but.

Carney: Our goal is to transform the Canadian economy into the strongest in the G7. That's a big task, but the early signs are encouraging.

Carney: Foreign direct investment in Canada is at its highest level in two decades, running at twice the rate of our nearest G7 peer. And we now rank as the most attractive country in the world for infrastructure investment.

Carney: I have not yet made a decision with respect to the by-elections. They probably will not all happen on the same date.

Carney on national unity: Canada's worth fighting for. I mean, this is the greatest country in the world. We're not perfect. We can get better, but Canada's worth fighting for. Secondly, we're stronger together.

Carney: This is a real referendum. It's not, you know, a question about a question, free option. It's a dangerous bluff. We're literally at 10 years anniversary of Brexit ... and you see what's happened in the United Kingdom. It's very reminiscent.

Q: Amb. Hoekstra told CTV News that Canada and the U.S. aren't anywhere close in terms of a deal. You just spoke with the President yesterday. Do you agree? Carney: What I have seen with the President is that you're not close to make a deal, and then you make a deal.

Carney: We could sign a bad deal this afternoon. We could have signed a bad deal a year ago. We're not going to sign a bad deal, so it has to be a real deal.

Carney on humanitarian crises in Iran and Venezuela: In my opinion, we must change the way we're doing things. Engagement is not necessarily approval of the regime's policies, but we have to be there to serve Canadians and provide humanitarian aid.

On his substack, Cole Bennett also had a good article on Thursday about the BC Condo plan. Questions remain, but here's the gist:
...According to the premier, the focus is on purchasing newly built, unsold condo projects, including distressed or bankrupt developments—at prices that individual homebuyers simply couldn’t negotiate.
His argument is straightforward.
The average Canadian can’t buy an entire unsold condo building.
The government can.
By purchasing entire projects at a bulk discount, Eby says those savings could then be passed on to families through the rent-to-own program, allowing people to eventually buy their homes below normal market prices...
