I can't wrap my head around the idea that you not knowing a country's internal affairs is reason to dismiss its democratic process as if it's child's play. And yes, I will dismiss the overarching importance of geopolitics every day of the week because they haven't played a part, and continue to not play a part, in how we govern ourselves. We're not part of any wars or trade conflicts either. In fact, our national motto is to stay out of it. We've shown quite decisively what type of democracy we want to lead, and I say confidently that right now is the strongest we've ever been. I appreciate you trying to be sober about this, but you're working with partial information and a severe bias about how other places operate. We have no reason to believe that we'll be anything other than a buoy bobbing in place with the currents of the world as we've been doing for the past 100+ years. Let's be honest, TACO couldn't do shit every time he tried including our second to last presidency that was part of a more corrupt party. I dare say that even our current president is single-handedly putting up a better fight than Canada.
