Canada is the ninth largest economy in the world and a senior member of the G7. Andrew Caddell thinks it's time the country started acting like it, on trade and on the question of where its prime minister actually lives.

Andrew brings a diplomat's eye to two stories that look unrelated but aren't. On trade, he reads Carney's refusal to accept a rushed deal as a negotiating strength, not a stalemate, and points to American industries already absorbing the cost of tariffs on Canadian aluminum and steel as evidence the pressure is working in both directions. On 24 Sussex, he sees something similar: a country that keeps choosing small when the moment calls for something else. The building has been functionally condemned for years. The argument that Canada shouldn't spend the money to fix it, Andrew says, misses what it costs not to.
