Running out of ideas, eh Maclean's? Why not argue that Canada needs a one cent piece too?
The country can’t defend itself, and citizens aren’t patriotic enough to step up. It’s time to change that—by asking young people to spend a year in service. https://macleans.ca/society/canada-needs-a-mandatory-national-service/

I find it fascinating how many Americans are still arguing over Harris being a better option than Trump -- the proof of what Harris would have done is laid bare in Canada with Carney. It's Trump lite, and he's setting up the pins for an absoutely more brutal Conservative swing back in 3 years.
