OTTAWA—The newest term of the day is 'sanewashing'—when media does backflips to try to logically re-interpret into policy what former U.S. president Donald Trump says when all he really did was bafflegab. Picture The Muppets and the “Mahna Mahna” song—now you’ll never get that song out of your head today!

Trump has inflamed the conspiracy theorists, as well as Americans who feel left out. Let’s be clear, lots of Americans are left out of economic growth and a sense of belonging. But we have that problem here in Canada. The whole impetus of reconciliation is to build belonging for Indigenous Peoples.
