True - although oddly the author seems to frame this as something our federal leadership understands but that 'everyday Canadians' don't ... and yet it seems to me to be the exact opposite.

If the feds really understood the threat — or perhaps more accurately, if they cared about the threat; as long as capital's interests aren't threatened, it seems they aren't too bothered — then they wouldn't be cheering on the attacks on Venezuela and kidnapping of Maduro, or deflecting the ridiculous fentanyl accusations by saying "nah it's actually Mexico's fault", or staying near-silent about the blockade of Cuba. Instead, they would be standing up to the US alongside those countries.
