#142: Oh, Canada…

Canada’s progressive image is challenged through a critique of environmental policy, indigenous rights, and civil liberties. Trudeau’s support for pipelines—especially through First Nations territories—is framed as environmental destruction and disregard for native sovereignty. Emergency powers invoked during the trucker protests raise concerns about free speech and proportionality. The romanticization of Canada by American liberals is questioned, suggesting that idealism often ignores uncomfortable realities. The grass isn’t always greener—it’s just differently mowed.
