Thanks to Trump's imperial arrogance for helping to wake Canadians up to this necessity. It is certain that almost everyone who opposes this is on the political right in Canada. @PierrePoilievre is their leader. The Conservative Party of Canada is the American Party of Canada.

To hell with the Americans, as 72% say we should have a closer relationship with the EU, even if that means a less close relationship with the US

Full public ownership (not "public control") of water supply is the obvious solution. It's right in principle and overwhelmingly popular. So why won't this Labour government do it? One wonders what the real problem is here.

I'm completely baffled why Canada has not yet declined US invitation to be part of this scheme. It's not a hard decision. The answer should be: absolutely not.

Canada should withdraw from North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD). No Canadian military forces should be under the operational control of a US general in Colorado answerable directly to Trump. NORAD is a strategic absurdity. It always was, but never more so than now.

This has been true since the creation of the Canadian federation, and remains true today.
