This absolutely applies to Canadian economic/military policy.
Third page has a line that the best time to stop wasting time was 10 years ago.
Carney is paying attention - Canadians are going to hurt as we prepare - we face threats from the south and north.
Hurt now or capitulate later.
Priorities.

PM Carney was asked when he last spoke to Trump: "Who cares. It's a detail. I'll speak to him again when it matters. I don't have a burning issue to speak with the president about right now. When America wants to come back and have the discussions on the trade side we will have those discussions." 👏🏽

This has implications too for contributors to Canadian political parties - though in our case the contributions are feeding the conservative party.
Not only through direct contributions, but also by through owned media that so directly influences Canadian voters.
PostMedia anyone?

We spent a year investigating billionaires for @washingtonpost.com.
We found: the wealthiest 100 Americans gave $1.1 billion to influence the 2024 elections — 140x more than they did in 2000. And almost all of that giving boosted Republicans.

That’s the point right there. Even if we weren’t on negative terms with the states the war in Ukraine should tell any US client to read the fine print of the end user agreement. When you cannot use the systems you paid for then what’s the point in the first place?

To protect Alberta children, the UCP is removing their human rights and the ability of their parents, teachers, and physicians to protect them.
The UCP knows best.
This is a classic populist trope.

It's more than a media problem; it's a Canada problem when the opposition leader can't pass a security check, is running the same losing schtick for years and is beholding to the anti-Canadian, seditionist Convoy crowd for his base support.

They were no more special than chickens or cattle that have also been culled because of virus.
