Matthew Yglesias, author of the Slow Boring newsletter and contributing opinion writer at The New York Times, discusses Trump’s conflict with Canada, the dramatic rise of Mark Carney and the Liberals, and how Americans are responding to their new trade war enemy. He examines how the Liberals have gone from the party of historical reckonings to one that has claimed the mantle of Canadian patriotism. Yglesias also discusses the struggles of the American Democratic Party, the sudden rise of the Democratic Socialists of America, and what Canada’s political experience can teach the centre-left elsewhere.
