🇨🇦 Canada built an economy one tantrum away from collapse

A single trade breakdown now threatens 102,000 Canadian jobs and $271 billion by 2035, while the U.S. takes a hit of 214,000 jobs and US$1.04 trillion, as reported. That is the punchline to three decades of Ottawa genius: hollow out national industry, tie Ontario and Quebec manufacturing to Washington’s mood swings, then call it resilience. When your prosperity depends on whether America feels nice this week, that is not strategy. That is managed dependency.

And who handed Canada this brittle model. The same federal class that worships global integration, lectures citizens about diversity and climate rituals, and leaves the country unable to defend its own economic sovereignty. Trudeau-era politics turned Canada into a branch-plant holding pen with a maple logo. Now the experts are warning that affordability could get worse, inflation could rise, and disposable income could stall, as if that is some shocking twist. A country that refuses to protect its productive base eventually gets negotiated like a client state.
