Are Canadians becoming more MAGA American? Americans are entitled to live as they wish, but in some ways Canadians are picking up their habits. I worry that there is no going back. Opinion by HeatherMallick
at OCAD University shut everything down last Thursday. Candidates wisely dropped out while police guarded their homes.
The debate would have been American-ish. Brad Bradford would have tried to paint Olivia Chow as a tax-hiking demon, Mark Saunders would have promised to cut fat/red tape/bike lanes, and Josh Matlow would have been deploring city bureaucrats, woe betide, etc. Poilievre sees conspiracies everywhere, fair enough in the case of China’s government, but his accusations about “targeting” miss the mark. What is targeting? Door-knocking and running away? Is China really conspiring with the Liberal Party? It seems silly., is hissing and snapping again as two heaps of strange, Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis, seek the Republican nomination.
Equally, most Canadians, including many gun-owners, are quite reasonable about new gun restrictions, having seen the daily carnage south of the border. Hardline gun advocates twinned in Canada and the U.S. take a different view, the American one. We do not want that here. One Toronto election event closed down by guns is one too many.
Americans are entitled to live as they wish, but in some ways we are picking up their habits. I worry that there is no going back. While the paranoid style “comes in waves of different intensity, it appears to be all but ineradicable,” Hofstadter wrote.
