CTV政治分析員莎倫·考爾表示，卡尼總理即將訪華對國際關係、外交等領域意義重大。

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

現在讓我們回到關於加拿大貿易的話題，特別是卡尼總理下周訪華。現在和我一起的是CTV新聞政治分析員莎倫·考爾。

你好，莎倫，你好嗎？

我很好。你呢？我很好。好的，我們開始吧。我們剛才也在和渥太華的傑裏米討論這件事，就是下周的訪華之行。顯然，總理希望繼續擴大貿易夥伴，並解釋加拿大在貿易方麵依賴哪些國家，但加中關係尤其複雜。那麽，您如何看待下周的訪問？

莎倫·卡爾

我認為這是一個非常重要的時刻。過去幾年，加中關係一直非常緊張。我們經曆了兩名邁克爾被拘留的時期。我們也經曆了外交溝通渠道幾乎癱瘓的時期。鑒於美國發生的事情，我認為我們必須擴大貿易夥伴。我認為總理訪問中國意義重大。雙方將討論一些議題，例如油菜籽、電動汽車，以及國家安全和其他一些事項。所以，我認為這非常重要。我們不能假裝中國不是世界超級大國。我認為外交手段以及讓他去那裏實際上是一件好事。

主持人

你認為這隻是像你剛才說的那種對話嗎？他們會談論這些話題，會討論這些問題，但感覺目前還不太可能達成任何協議。

莎倫·卡爾

嗯，很有可能會有一些溝通成果。通常，這些討論不會在這些會議中開始和結束，對吧？它們可能已經開始了。他們可能實際上有一些想要達成一致的成果。如果總理回來的時候宣布達成了某種共識，我不會感到驚訝。但我認為我們目前不一定會在那裏解決油菜籽或電動汽車問題。但我確實認為他們可能會就加中關係達成某種協議。

主持人

我還想和您談談克裏斯托弗·弗裏蘭今天正式辭職的事，她不再是國會議員，而是加入了烏克蘭政府，負責當地的經濟重建工作。嗯，您也知道，這件事的進展方式引發了很多批評，包括她辭職的方式以及本周發生的事情。我也很想知道您對她在加拿大留下的持久印象有何看法，尤其是在她即將就任新職務、不再擔任下議院議員之後，她的政治影響力會如何。

莎倫·卡爾

聽著，我認為，大多數情況下，來自各個黨派的人都同意，加拿大國會議員很難在另一個國家的政府中擔任職務。這關乎忠誠。我認為，公平地說，她對加拿大極其忠誠，但她也是烏克蘭的堅定支持者。她一生都是如此。

所以我並不感到驚訝。我認為她在這件事上的溝通安排有點草率，但她辭職是正確的決定。

她根本不可能同時擔任這兩個職位，即使她聲稱要同時擔任這兩個職位也不可能。聽著，她擔任國會議員已經相當長一段時間了，我認為最終，羅絲戴爾大學選區的居民可以對此發表意見，但她辭職是正確的選擇，我認為現在是時候給羅絲戴爾大學選區注入一些新鮮血液了。

CTV新聞政治分析員莎倫·卡爾。非常感謝你，莎倫。感激不盡。

‘We can’t pretend like China is not a superpower in the world’: analyst reacts to Carney’s trip

CTV political analyst Sharan Kaur says PM Carney’s upcoming visit to China holds significance for international relations, diplomacy, and more.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Want to return now to a conversation about trade in this country, in particular, Prime Minister Mark Carney's visit to China next week. With me now is CTV News political analyst Sharon Carr.

Hi Sharon, how are you? 

Good. How are you? 

I'm very good. Okay, let's get into this. We're just talking about this too with Jeremy in Ottawa too, but the visit to China next week. Clearly the prime minister continuing this expansion, wanting to explain uh who Canada's relying on for trade, but this one in
particular is a very complicated relationship. So, what do you make of the visit next week? 

Sharon Carr
I think it's a pretty big moment. We've gone through a number of years and a period of time where Canada China relations has been very fraught. Uh we went through the period when uh the two Michaels were detained there. We went through a period of time where there was very little diplom diplomatic channels of communication and I think given what's happened in the US uh we have to expand our trade partners and I think the fact
that the prime minister is going there is important. there's going to be things on the table like canola, EVs that are going to be a point of discussion, but also national security and and a few other items there. So, I think it's really important. We can't pretend like China is not a superpower in the world in terms of where they stand. And I
think diplomacy and and having him go there is actually a good thing.

Host
And do you believe it's just more of those conversations like you talked about? They're going to talk about these topics, they're going to discuss these, but necessarily that doesn't really feel that there might be any sort of agreement yet. 

Sharon Carr
Well, it's quite possible that there's going to be some sort of communicate that comes out of it. Often these discussions don't start and end in these meetings, right? They've probably already started. They might actually have a deliverable that they want to agree upon. I wouldn't be surprised that by the time the prime minister returns, there's something that gets announced that there some mutual agreement on something. But I don't think we're going to necessarily solve canola or EV issues at this point in time there. But I do think there might be some sort of agreement on Canada China relations that
they can come out of. 

Host
I also want to talk to you Christopher Freeland officially resigned today, no longer an
MP and has taken up the post in the Ukrainian government to talk about economic redevelopment there. Um, you know, the way this all played out, there was lots of criticism about how she resigned and and what happened this week. But I'm curious your thoughts too on her lasting impression uh here in Canada, especially politically as she
moves on to her next role and now is no longer in the House of Commons. 

Sharon Carr
listen, I think that uh for the most part, a lot of folks from every partisan stripe agree that it's really difficult for uh a member of Canadian Parliament to hold a role in another government. I just it's a question of I'm going to say loyalty. Like I think it's fair to say she's extremely loyal to Canada, but she's also a very strong advocate for
for Ukraine. She's been her whole life.

So I I'm not surprised. I think that the communications roll out on this was a bit sloppy uh in how she did it, but it's the right decision for her to go.

There's no way that she could have held both positions, even even saying that she's going to have it at the same time. Uh her lasting impression, listen, she's been a MP for quite some time now, and I think that uh at the end of the day, the residents of University Rosedale can speak to that, but uh she's made the right move to resign, and I think it's time to get some fresh blood into University Rosedale.

CTV News political analyst Sharon Carr. Thanks so much for this, Sharon. Appreciate it.
