    1. For… what?

      Really, for what?

      >The new way included the military. To lessen our dependence on American might, Ottawa budgeted increases in defence spending the likes of which hadn’t been seen in decades.

      Except that this military spending has been primarily being funded by investing in American industry, and comes at the behest of American demands. And we haven’t even *done anything* yet. We have a budget, but no concrete actions beyond announcements yet.

      >Not here. In Canada, the centre held and grew. Justin Trudeau’s left-side Liberals were out and the Mark Carney party of the moderate middle was in

      .. Trudeau was more a moderate than Carney is, and Carney is not a moderate middle man. Under his leadership, the government has shifted to a fully economically right, and deeply libertarian government. Carney is many things, but a centrist is not one of them. He’s just a blander PP, as they have largely the same overall policies.

      >In keeping, the memorandum of understanding between Mr. Carney and Alberta Premier Danielle Smith on pipelines and increased oil production held promise of easing never-ending East-West hostilities

      Ah, yes, the easing of East-West hostilities. Tell me, which side of the country is BC on? And how well received was the behind-the-back discussion about how the federal government is open to sell out our long term future and willing to force a pipeline through BC? That surely didn’t result in further resentment towards Ottawa, did it? (Especially since Smith was then booed by her own supporters for working with Ottawa, even as her party foments separatist sentiment.)

      This is like patting ourselves on the back for a job well done before we’ve actually done anything to deserve it. Especially when the accolades listed aren’t even accurate.
