🇨🇦 After gutting Canada, Ottawa wants to map growth

The absurdity is perfect: after a decade of Trudeau-era deindustrialization, housing inflation, military neglect and mass-importation economics, the same class now wants a national growth strategy conference featuring defence experts and leaders. Translation: the people who hollowed out the country are hosting a panel about how to save it. As reported, Ottawa is suddenly flirting with defence spending and growth mapping, as if national strength is a branding exercise instead of the byproduct of secure borders, cheap energy, industrial capacity and a government that serves Canadians first.

Real growth is not more consultant jargon, ESG powerpoint sludge or globalist networking over canapés. It means rebuilding sovereignty, expanding resource extraction, fixing procurement, and ending the fantasy that endless population growth can substitute for productivity. Canada does not need another elite brainstorming session about resilience while the country is priced out, culturally diluted and strategically dependent. It needs a ruling class that remembers this country is supposed to belong to its own people.
