Canada and Turkey commenced their “strategic partnership” yesterday, signing agreements to deepen partnership on defense, energy, supply chains and increased airplane travel. This is part of a broader Canadian strategy to replace its economic and military alliance with the United States.

• It resulted from Prime Minister Mark Carney’s two-day visit to Turkey, which concludes today, the first official bilateral visit from a Canadian government head.
• Besides the U.S., Canada’s other strategic partnerships include Australia, Germany and Sweden.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said the two nations want to more than triple their trade to $10 billion annually, although he didn’t specify how soon.

• “Our objectives are clear: more trade between businesses to build more prosperity between our peoples,” Carney said, remarking that this partnership will continue to grow for generations.

A big reason no Canadian head of government had visited Turkey for a bilateral visit is the nation’s poor human rights record. But for Carney, highlighting the pivot away from the U.S. is more important than standing for human rights.

• Carney has made several speeches advocating for human rights by establishing a new world order that ends American dominance.
• Canada’s desperation to separate from the U.S. is leading it to partner with nations that do not share its fundamental values.

Ultimately, Canada is trusting in alliances for its prosperity and protection rather than God. This will have disastrous consequences.

Bible prophecy warns that Canada’s trust in Turkey is misplaced. The book of Obadiah shows that Turkey will betray Canada, along with the United States and other descendants of ancient Israel.
