It sure doesn\u2019t appear to fit developing countries&#8217; top priorities today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now we see EU countries introducing emergency actions, including upping coal-powered generation, to ease their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rystadenergy.com\/newsevents\/news\/press-releases\/europe-power-pain-arrives-earlier-than-expected-with-limited-options-in-gas-LNG-coal-nuclear-and-renewables\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">growing energy crisis<\/span><\/a> and<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ctvnews.ca\/business\/eu-draws-up-energy-plan-in-case-of-russian-gas-cutoff-1.5994677\"> <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">extreme plans if Russian gas is entirely cut off<\/span><\/a>.

So why does it continue? Obviously Western leaders see Putin\u2019s Russia as a growing threat to the Liberal World Order, thus making it a Western <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurasiareview.com\/03072022-ukraine-crisis-the-outlook-of-a-perilous-proxy-war-oped\/\"><em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">proxy war<\/span><\/em><\/a> with Russia. So on it goes, with a mounting loss of life, escalation risks, growing energy &amp; food crises, and economic damages reaching trillions of dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now governments face slowing economies, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/markets\/europe\/emerging-markets-drive-global-debt-record-303-trillion-iif-2022-02-23\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">record debt,<\/span><\/a> and rising interest rates, as decades of loose monetary policy, money printing, and high deficits come back to bite. <a href=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2022\/07\/ar2022e.pdf\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The Bank for International Settlements<\/span><\/a> (pdf.) puts it this way: \u201cThe most pressing monetary policy task is to restore low and stable inflation<em> while limiting as far as possible the cost to economic activity and preserving financial stability &#8230; there is a need to sustainably rebuild monetary and fiscal buffers\u201d. <\/em>The war makes this impossible to achieve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Developing countries aren\u2019t blind, they see the failures, disparities, and hypocrisy and suffer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/davidblackmon\/2022\/07\/10\/rising-social-unrest-over-energy-food-shortages-threatens-global-stability\/?sh=64521be568bd\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">the brunt of the war\u2019s economic fallout<\/span><\/a>, so their distrust of the West grows, colonial history notwithstanding. Little surprise then when they place their own interest first, as was again on display at a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ctvnews.ca\/world\/g-20-diplomats-fail-on-unity-over-ukraine-war-s-impact-1.5979489\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">recent G20 diplomats&#8217; meeting<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The war must end, and a compromise settlement is the only way to do it. Western leaders, our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalobserver.com\/2022\/06\/28\/news\/trudeau-g7-summit-pledges-aid-loans-ukraine\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">PM included<\/span>,<\/a> along with western media don\u2019t seem to see this, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bnnbloomberg.ca\/eu-stalls-on-ukraine-aid-as-fears-spike-of-gas-crisis-at-home-1.1792268\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">public support may be waning.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For decades the West brushed off Chinese and Russian moves while failing to see how the world order was changing. Now that China has risen to challenge US global leadership, with much of the developing world in tow, a course change is long past due.&nbsp; It will require thoughtful, rational long-range planning, not knee-jerk reactions. It should include mending divisions, serious fiscal &amp; monetary policy discipline, and smarter trade, energy, military, and foreign policies, including achieving a sustainable climate\/energy security balance. It must also smartly deliver more support to developing countries, but not by tying it to our priorities, values, or governance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Is Canada prepared for this new reality? Considering our lagging <a href=\"https:\/\/bcbc.com\/insights-and-opinions\/oecd-predicts-canada-will-be-the-worst-performing-advanced-economy-over-the-next-decade-and-the-three-decades-after-that\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">economic outlook<\/span><\/a>, muddled policies, and weak leadership, the simple answer is no. Canada is blessed with bountiful natural resources, bordering the US, coasts on three oceans, and a highly educated, peaceful population. Unleashing our full potential to meet the new challenges in this changing and more dangerous world, demands a new Canadian vision and new energized national leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Muskoka has a voice in this, so let\u2019s make sure it is heard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Dave Wilkin is a Professional Engineer, with a master\u2019s degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Toronto.
