I saw someone saying recently that Canada has made a huge shift away from the US. As someone Canadian, I haven’t noticed anything beyond relatively minor individual decisions (IE, not going to the US as a tourist). I’d like to be wrong, but from my understanding, this is effectively nothing. Has there actually been any sort of large scale move away from US dependence?

    IDK what you imagine should be done instead of what the Canadian government is already doing?
    Despite the aggressive tariffs on Canada by USA, and a lot of disruption caused by USA, the Canadian government has managed to create an environment that has allowed impressive growth for the economy considering the circumstances.

      Chess and Among Us strats.

      As the king becomes the fool and destroys his own castle, prioritize establishing relations with foreign nations built on the basis of historical reputation and long term trust.

      When the fool asks "Hey how come you: brought Christmas fruitcake!? / didn’t reply or show up for my party!?

      Malicious compliance and/or ignorance: "Sorry bro I:

      1. thought this was what you meant🤷‍♂️(🤪)"
      2. was busy but hope it was good👍"

      This is the basics of what anyone could do, obviously there are better methods and plans out there.
