Yeah.
But just the fact that we were desperate to have this face-to-face with him, that the Europeans are desperate to get FaceTime with him on things like Ukraine, underscore that despite Trump trying to do everything he can to stiff-arm these guys, he insults them, all of them.
You know, we bristle at the notion that he calls us the 51st state.
I mean, he is brutal.
He's been brutal to Macron.
He's been brutal to Starmer.
His favorite, Meloni in Italy, is now dismissed as having no courage.
They all line up to see him because the United States remains indispensable to their future prosperity and security.
Yeah, the New Democratic Party for the last little while, really since Jack Layton, has lost the connection it had to working people in Canada.
Under a leader like Avi Lewis,
born and raised in Toronto, grew up or became an adult really in Vancouver.
I don't think it's a slag to say that he's a salon socialist, right?
He's a guy who...
has probably not spent a lot of time in working among places where people work with their hands or get things out of the ground.
So this rural urban working kind of white collar, blue collar split that's happened in the NDP has to be repaired somehow.
If it isn't, then they're doomed to irrelevance.
Their challenge
And it's the challenge, I also think, for conservatives to a lesser extent, is that Donald Trump remains the president of the United States and that he scares working people away from what some believe is the luxury of voting for the third party.
Their opportunity is that there is a wide open field when it comes to policy, it seems.
As the Liberal Party in particular moves towards the centre, if not the centre-right in many instances, wide open opportunity for them to appeal to people who feel like they've been left behind.
