    Does anyone in this country want war ? Sure there are some deranged PMC neolibs out there but I spend most of time around median or below income people, aka most people, and I’d say even the most reactionary amongst them have no appetite for war. All vibes based analysis really but the disconnect between the “average” person here and the actions/rhetoric of our government just seems so far removed. Not sure what to make of it really.

      The population is so divided about what it wants, or what it thinks it wants, it can’t process the strategic realities we’re dealing with right now.

      I think this quote illustrates the Canadian populations’ general feelings on mobilization. They seem frustrated that the citizenry is not on the same page as the government. I’m certain if a national poll was done most people would say they don’t want to go to war.
