Again, it's not the Labour party - it's the Liberal party.

Eh. Same philosophies, different continent. Way cooler to spell it with the 'ou' in there.

And Trump changed perception into reality.
I must have missed all the tanks along the border...

Unlike any time in the last many decades, the U.S. is genuinely and materially taking steps that will dramatically harm Canada. We are now treating them as an adversary and rival, and not an ally.

The other perspective on this is that Trump is making very, very aggressive moves on trade in an attempt to re-industrialize large swaths of the country. Do I agree with Slash and Burn negotiating tactics? No I don't.

Dope. We're no longer the good guys to Canada, and we're not going to be the good guys to Canada any longer. We are now an adversary to them. In the immediate term, probably the most threatening to their well-being. So they picked the party that's going to be more inclined to push back against that adversary.

Okay.

But definitely the right move for them.

Except for the fact that just like here the liberals are terrible at actually governing. BTW Trump will run over Carney in any negotiation. Poilievre would have been a far more capable representative of Canada's interests. They blew it.
