According to emergency response expert and retired Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) Lt.-Col. David Redman, "I believe that in particular, Justin Trudeau and Chrystia Freeland truly believe that Canada is a post-national state, with no defined culture. They believe in the World Economic Forum vision of the world, and so work to dissolve and destroy nationalism, to ensure their vision for a post-national state world. Their vision leads to a world like the old Soviet Union, with all parts equally poor. They do not believe in wealth creation, just wealth redistribution. I believe that this is just communism by a different name, and Woke culture and DEI are tools to achieve it."
