Trump may strut like a would-be dictator, but he will be gone in two years and his imprint, if anything, will bring on a government that, if anything, will be much closer to Canadian values and norms.

Trump, and disdain for the U.S., has provided the impetus for Prime Minister Mark Carney, the quintessential globalist advised by individuals connected to the Democratic Party back in the states, to adopt a faux nationalism that has proved a big winner among Canadians.
