This is great, however the phrasing of the question might lead to a "Tyranny of Structurelessness" [0] issue where they're not asking for a diversity statement, but are expecting the answer to contain a diversity statement.

Time will tell.

But none of that was a reason to invoke the Emergencies Act, per the courts.
From the shared link:

"The Trudeau government has stopped using the Liberal Party's private database to conduct background checks on candidates for judicial appointments, federal sources say."

This is a specific claim about the Liberals that is not refuted by suppositions about other parties, even if the supposition is likely true.

"The government should solve every problem" is a totalizing idea the Liberals have implemented though.

We see this in the job growth numbers, for example, that show massive federal government hiring and anemic private sector growth. A market solution would have federal incentives create private sector growth to accomplish goals.

And, yes: Canada badly needs some kind of antitrust regime. Perhaps the reward for monopolization of a Canadian market should be nationalization.

How else will $GOVERNING_PARTY find out which of their political opponents' bank accounts they should freeze?
Depends what you mean by "win". I suppose it implies "achieved some defined geopolitical goals". Those wars, perhaps, didn't have defined goals -- so what does "win" mean in the context of not having a win condition?

Vostoks are nice little mechanical wristwatches for those looking to dip their toes into the ocean.

How do we convince people to pay for the more expensive chips? More automation? Government subsidies? Other?
I'm unaware of how automatable fabs are. If the workers are high-cost then the machines need to do more or the government needs to subsidize production.
This is the effort from the 90s to which I am referring:

“We still have about a thousand workers in that factory, and that factory, they cost us about 50% more than Taiwan costs,” Chang said.

Not OP, but: TSMC has tried before. The workforce is not educated properly and the workplace cultures are vastly different. In this case, the US workers were used to stronger labor protections than their Taiwanese counterparts.

Also: your children.
Not OP, but they are likely referring to the MMIWG crisis [0], which Justin Trudeau called a "genocide" in 2018.
