Canada’s foreign policy changed, but noticed it.
Canada didn’t lose its foreign policy overnight.
It’s been repeating the same pattern for 50 years.
When strikes began in Iran on February 28, 2026 — without informing allies, without UN authorization, without consulting Canada — Prime Minister Mark Carney responded from a podium in Australia.
First, he called it a failure of the international order.
Then… he supported it.
This was after Carney's Davos speech that warned against an American hegemon campaign
This episode isn’t about whether those strikes were right or wrong.
It’s about something deeper:
Has Canada ever built the capacity to act on its own convictions — or has it always relied on others to make the hard decisions?
In this episode:
Carney’s four conflicting positions in eleven days
The 280,000 Iranian-Canadians with no embassy to turn to
Reports of Canadian officers embedded in allied military systems — and what that means for sovereignty
The contrast between Ken Taylor in Tehran (1980) and hesitation in 2026
And the question almost no one in Canadian media is asking:
👉 Does Canada actually have a foreign policy — or just alliances?
Revaluate examines the deeper systems shaping politics, institutions, and power — through structural analysis, not partisan commentary.
