> low social trust and cohesion necessarily require increasingly authoritarian measures

Then this country is fucked.

It's really hard to have some kind of national identity when the previous PM goes and says things like Canada might be the first post-national state.



Jean Chrétien is the one that said Canada is the first post-nationalist state, why would it be a bad thing?

Is there a reason why national identity and being a high-trust society need to be linked?
