To See Why Democrat Rule Would Ruin America, Just Look At Canada
2026-10-06
[Federalist] The midterms are less than a month away. On Nov. 3, Americans will go back to the ballot box and choose between two paths. One is focused on a revitalized appreciation of America’s civic heritage, and the other is still determined to redefine what America is and has been for the last 250 years. The modern Democrat Party has, by all accounts, embraced the idea of postnationalism and views America’s history, Founding Fathers, and institutions as bad.

You don’t need to look very far to see where this kind of policy leads. Just north of the 49th parallel, Canada, where I live, has experimented with the same type of policies. Then-Prime Minister Justin Trudeau once referred to Canada as "the world’s first postnational state," and what has happened since has been a disaster. Canada is struggling to define and assert itself in the face of a world that is ever-changing and unkind.

If the United States embraces an ethos of postnationalism, it too will render itself impotent. That is why, under no circumstances, can Americans give ground to those who would undermine the institutions that uphold the country you and your forefathers built. America must have a strong economy backed by a stronger military to exert real power on the world stage and thus ensure American primacy and hegemony. Celebrating the Founding Fathers and their struggle against the elements as they colonized a vast, once sparsely populated landmass is necessary for your continued survival — not because these stories or institutions provide nostalgia or patriotism, but because they are the mechanisms by which you exert your existence.
