00:00:06.080 20 uh 2100 um and and what do you hope for canada in the last thesis the 10th my favorite uh i i

00:00:17.200 paint 10 steps for canada post pandemic by the way one of which is interest would interest you

00:00:23.280 personally i talk about creating a special economic economic environmental zone for the

00:00:28.960 entire west and north of the country to really give us uh energy and to open our wings i talk about

00:00:35.520 movement of assets in the country both political and economic more to the west to the to the north

00:00:41.360 because of the china russia axis which is which is underserviced uh 2050 i hope i'm around and vital

00:00:49.200 in 2100 i plan to be around and vital i hope that canada is around it's not obvious canada is my

00:00:55.680 team so i'm always fighting for it and i'm thinking about it i'm grateful but now i realize that

00:01:02.160 that it's much more the gratitude that is required for us to to keep fighting i imagine us to be the

00:01:07.600 second major country in the west um in the year 2050 second only to the united states larger essentially in

00:01:18.720 both demography and power and influence and self-belief than any western european country

00:01:25.280 any any european country other than russia which by that point will have uh different borders anyways

00:01:31.840 i also however imagine us to be connected very non-ideologically to all the major countries in

00:01:37.760 the world this is an essential point i'm very non-ideological in my strategizing for canada and

00:01:44.160 must be so because if we're too dogmatic we will get crushed we can be dogmatic on twitter but we

00:01:49.600 need to be i i call it strategically promiscuous in our strategy we need to have good relationships

00:01:55.840 with all these border countries because otherwise they will crush us and that's how a cunning clever

00:02:01.600 calculating country that's at scale operates
