Oh, then Valmy must be wrong.  Good luck on building up your military-industrial complex!  You are going to step up and defend the seas, right?  Stop genocide, be world policeman and so on?

Well, we won't murder random Venezuelan fishermen. So that's a start.

Well, I suppose it is time for you guys to step up and reap those immense benefits.

Oh they are.

And we will suffer.

But you get to feel smug. So that's good.

I doubt we will suffer that much.  Canada didn't suffer when we did the work, I imagine we'll be fine when Canada picks up our slack.  We would only suffer if they didn't pick up the slack, and of course that wouldn't happen.

You'll suffer because you won't have a friend in the world, just business partners.

Is that what it is like being a Canadian?

No? For example, Canadian tourists never pretend to be another nationality when traveling abroad, and they don't need to adorn their belongings with another country's flag because of how bad their country sucks.

Oh, then Valmy must be wrong.  Good luck on building up your military-industrial complex!  You are going to step up and defend the seas, right?  Stop genocide, be world policeman and so on?

If the cons stay further right I'd think that will help the liberals stay in the right of centre space - where they belong imo. 

On the budget these comments by boc governor seem positive:

Poor PP.
Just a year ago he was "THIS" close to being PM. Now, he'll likely be gone from politics in a couple months.

I expect that the Conservatives will remain on trend and select one further to the right of the current leader, if indeed Poilievre the knife.

Since the US received most of those "joint benefits", it seems fair that they also paid more.

The US received more benefit from Russia not invading Poland and the Baltics than say, Germany did?  Please elaborate.

To paraphrase Kirk Lazarus from Tropic Thunder: He went full Trump, man. Never go full Trump.

We don't know how monkeys feel about economic inequality in general.  We know how monkeys feel about discriminatory wages, i.e. differing wages for identical work.
