主题:美国WASP统治的衰落? -- 晨枫
i notice that this viewpoint is shared by many Canadians, including these social elites.
But not by Canadians who live and work for several years in States, esp., among professionals.
BTW, Canada and America are in the same boat. A down-and-out America will hit Canada accordingly. Canadians enjoyed some benefits (such as the economy of scale and new innovations, the current global free trade order maintained by American military power) from its closeness to the top level in global hierarchy.
Therefore, I have a hard time to understand why English-speaking Canadians (I can understand Quebecois because they could have built up a French empire in the whole North America and unfortunately lost out to the cunning General Wolfe) will expect an American decline and the collapse of Anglo-Saxon-Pax-Americana global order. As we agree before, Canda-America are effectively one single country. Your expectation is clearly against your own interests.
今日美国已经离不开世界贸易了,如果沦为二流国家,美国就无力支持现在的生活方式
--America can always shut off its door. Do not underestimate the isolationism among American rednecks. Americans shut off its domestic market to Europe in 19th century, it shut off to the europe in 1930s when Europe fell into crisis.
Americans/English-Canadians only care about their own interests(unlike French Canadians). Free trade or not, it is the interests that they truly follow.
