"All ideas of nationhood are fictions. The fiction cultivated by the #Canadian studying abroad may be more likely than that of the Canadian educated at home to eschew regionalism, depending on a more overarching, all-embracing idea of nationhood."

I just ordered it after reading this. Thank you Barbara.

Of course it is, it's from the playbook. Hopefully it doesn't work - it seems like the protesters see through every move they make.

U pravu je Vučić kad kaže da nisu sve zemlje uvek bile bogate i sve uvek siromašne. Samo što su na čelu zemalja koje su „proklete“ resursima obično autoritarne i korumpirane vlasti u službi transnacionalnih korporacija.

 

The irony...

“As a result of the many gaps and weaknesses we found in the project’s design, oversight, and accountability, it did not deliver the best value for taxpayer dollars spent,” wrote Auditor General Karen Hogan in a report released Monday.
