One destination. Two SUVs. Zero self-awareness.
That’s what stood out to me as I sat in the media editing room in Banff, Alberta — where Global Affairs Canada had sequestered the non-pooled, accredited media far away from the G7 summit, a full hour up the road in Kananaskis.
Since I was stuck in Banff without access to world leaders to ask real questions, I focused in on the livestream of the arrivals at the Calgary Airport. Leaders of the top seven democracies were touching down, one by one.
Naturally, I paid close attention when Prime Minister Mark Carney stepped off the government Challenger jet and was greeted by Alberta Premier Danielle Smith. I was reading the body language — Smith’s didn’t betray her.
But then I noticed something odd. I put a pin in it until I could be sure.
