🇨🇦 Canada is relearning self-sufficiency after Ottawa spent years sabotaging it
After decades of elite sermons about seamless global supply chains, Canada is suddenly asking whether it can supply itself. Amazing. A trade shock hits and businesses are forced to discover what Ottawa should have protected all along: domestic production, local sourcing, and national resilience. As reported, firms are now scrambling to replace foreign inputs with Canadian ones, which is what a serious country does before a crisis, not after one.
This is the Trudeau era in one neat little fiasco: preach post-nationalism, worship borderless markets, pile on regulations, carbon costs, and ideological nonsense, then act shocked when Canada lacks industrial depth. The same class that cheered dependency now wants applause for rediscovering sovereignty in the supply chain. No, this is not a feel-good pivot. It is an indictment. A country with Canada’s land, energy, timber, minerals, and farmers should not need a trade war to remember it exists for Canadians first.
