It's also the rhetoric piece on two fronts imo.

- We've made a lot of noises about aligning with Europe. We're involved in their procurement scheme now, we're becoming a financial hub for european re armament and looking to get into the arms export business on a much larger level. These fuckwits are fully bought into the Kremlin vision of "spheres of influence" and we belong to them in their world view. Us aligning outside of that isn't that unlike Ukraine wanting to align outside of what the Russians felt was theirs. This is also one of the US' main reasons for ongoing antogonism towards Mexico. Exact same logic, but Mexico is deepening economic ties with China.

- This regime sees America's weak claim to the arctic and wants a bigger slice either through Greenland, or us. Seeing us actually start to assert arctic sovereignty is a threat to the long term American goal of controlling the arctic that the Trump regime has made worse and more overt, but didn't invent.

The current lack of popularity and upcoming mid terms where they are expected to lose big, is definitely a huge leverage point for Canada.

We just gonna wait this out until you lose. And negotiate with the next people. Simple.

Yeah, our strat right now is pretty simple. Keep our head down, delay shit for as long as possible without making it look like we're playing out the clock until the mid terms while slowly pumping out infrastructure approvals and trade deals.
