Thinkers in both “camps” have not only challenged the underlying idea of the split but created theory that unified both liberal and socialist principles.
Samantha and essayist John Banks discuss what steps Canada is taking to fight back against Trump's aggression. Mark Carney's "variable geometry" Davos speech, the dilemmas facing middle powers, and the future of liberal internationalism are covered. In Banks' view, the Republican Party has adopted the ideology of a continental "civilization-state," and as long as they remain a political force in America, Canadian-American relations will never again be quite so friendly.
John Banks is an activist and the former policy advisor for the Mustafa Zuberi campaign in the 2025 Ontario election. His interests are in covering right-wing extremism, authoritarianism, and technology.
