With few constraints, Justin Trudeau has turned Canada into a laboratory for left-wing policies.
There is little reason why Canada should feature in National Review or deserve journalistic treatment anywhere, except as a joke. It’s a nation without a purpose for its existence and a void in place of a national character. Whereas America is defined by its political freedom, Britain by its rich cultural and political history, Australia by its frontier spirit, and New Zealand by its unique Anglo-Maori culture, Canada is the only Western, anglophone, liberal democracy with absolutely nothing else about it. This lack of national identity — or, as its prime minister, Justin Trudeau, describes it, “post-national” — makes it dull, uninteresting, and unworthy of respect. Ask Canadian citizens what their country means to the world, and they’ll genuinely struggle to give you an answer. As a citizen of Canada myself, I readily conclude that there is none.
