Canadians must dare to think about parting ways – economically, politically, and socially. They must begin to de-link our economy from that of the US. This is no small ask. To begin to make inroads, they must persuade each other that the political concept that capitalism is the only way to create welfare for most people is not only untrue but also dangerous, as it is the chief reason why the people of the world are confronted by an ecological crisis of an existential nature. In short, we must be willing to think of ourselves as abolitionists of capitalism and promoters of socialism. We must begin by re-imagining our polity as a distinct one that requires its major founders – Indigenous peoples, Québécois, and Anglo-Canadians – to form a consensus based on a politics aiming for the common good of all, while respecting the relative autonomy of each group to reach for that common good in its own special way.
