“Why has Canada’s mainstream media — including the CBC, which Pierre Poilievre has vowed to destroy — been so soft in fact-checking his rhetoric? Poilievre has benefitted immensely from establishment media’s inability to challenge conservative bullies.”

Canada is now the first non-European country to be granted a membership in SAFE. This is a gamechanger program that means Canada can rearm our Canadian Armed Forces members more effectively and scale up our defence industries with more contracts overseas.

Canadian politics is generally stable, avoiding wide ideological swings and mercurial leaders. As such, it's easy for Americans to take Canada for granted. On the other hand, Canadians must always be aware of the elephant next door.

From Chile to Poland to Serbia, ordinary people have reined in power before. We, the people, are not powerless. History leaves instructions.
