Does Canada have a red line for Donald Trump's behaviour? If so, what does Trump have to do for the Canadian government to find its spine, let alone its elbows?
Conflating capitalism or nationalism with human nature is a typical display of internalization of naturalised settler-colonial rationalities. “Greed” is a conveniently vague explanation for someone who cannot or will not imagine a world without this system.
Canada is a settler colony. Its only purpose is to facilitate the extraction of resources within its borders to the greatest effect under capitalist imperatives of infinite growth and profit maximization. When I say it isn’t a nation, that isn’t because I think nationalism is any real way to imagine human organizing, I say it because Canadians cling to an idea of national identity to justify what is fundamentally a brutal, inhuman system.
