Great quotes here from a Canadian official — viewing the provincial premiers as rubes who went to DC, learned it’s not actually that easy dealing with Trump, paid $85,000 for a meeting with senior-mid-level staff, got publicly ridiculed after by that Trump staff

A little cross post: I have my 200 Canadian politics students do a survey every class. It contains some short-answer questions that they have to go and research something online, some general reflection/opportunity for opinions on course content, and then some #cdnpoli polling Qs.

I've hopefully got two journal articles coming out that were the product of some 2025 hard work and a couple of book chapters!

One book chapter is already here: link.springer.com/chapter/10.1...
