My piece on The Canada experiment: is this the world’s first ‘postnational’ country? for The Guardian, especially apt for this era of nationalism and fear.

“Canada’s incomplete identity is, in this sense, a positive, a spur to move forward without spilling blood, to keep thinking and evolving – perhaps, in the end, simply to respond to newness without fear……When Justin Trudeau said, ‘there is no core identity, no mainstream in Canada’, he was articulating a uniquely Canadian philosophy that some find bewildering, even reckless – but could represent a radical new model of nationhood.” – Charles Foran
