Hold back for a moment before we enumerate the American attack on Canada. Let’s recognize there are many Americans who are dismayed at this attack and recognize that friendship is generated by their respect for the values that Canadians stand for. They recognize and appreciate Canadians have been there for them whether its is lending its “super scooper” Bombardier water bombers to fight wildfires, dying by their side in war and hosting their citizens in Gander, Newfoundland when 9/11 grounded global air traffic and Newfoundlanders opened their hearts and homes to countless “grounded” Americans.
Perhaps then the real threat emanates from a deranged wannabe dictator with legions of ignorant hot heads who can’t even discern the difference between a subsidy and a trade deficit. Nazi saluting thugs supported by a throng of yahoo paramilitary groups better known as the Shame Boys and the Oath Breakers. The enemy is not the United States in its entirety but rather those Golden Ager MAGA “dreamers” dreaming of a mythical United States. Canada must cultivate its allies within America to escape, by way of allegory, a 1939 Poland. Perhaps the real enemies of America are found in the backroom of a pizza parlour in Washington? Perhaps Mike Pence shouldn’t have been lined up and shot by a firing squad for treason?
Let us not fall prey to the Musk jargon and think America is a ball of worms and corrupt through and through. The rot affects half of America and we know the worms rotting it.
