Canada mulling ‘game plan’ if U.S. takes far-right, authoritarian shift.
OTTAWA - Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly says Canada has been considering a “game plan” for how it would respond if the United States takes a far-right, authoritarian shift after next year’s presidential elections.
You're viewing a single thread.
University of Ottawa national-security professor Thomas Juneau said many Canadians might find it far-fetched to talk about Washington falling drastically out of step with Canada.
Let's also pay some attention to the fact that Canada may be about to fall drastically in step with the US Republicans at the next election.
Even if the PCs get elected, they're basically democrats if you look at the policy positions and set aside the stupid culture wedges they like to grab onto
The democrats are pretty fucking bad though. Nothing like the Republicans domestically but in foreign policy, which is more relevant to us foreigners, they might be even bigger warmongers.
Why wouldn't Canada and the rest of the world fall in step? The same environmental and economic pressures exist everywhere. Again, not as bad as in the US, but it's going to get worse everywhere.
