My premise is that he was responsible for the party he leads caving, hence why the ones who actually voted weren’t punished.
He can punish them be taking them off committee assignments. The most basic function of a political party is to be able to negotiate as a bloc.
America’s military invasion of Canada
What does that even look like, the day after US troops occupy TorontoOttowa? Canadians waging an insurgency from the woods, occasionally killing some random cops?
OK, if he didn’t approve of their votes, what has he done to punish the democrats who did? Nothing at all? Weird.
He literally gave the republicans what they wanted in exchange for a vote that would make zero material difference in the lives of his constituents.
America’s military budget is 895B. Canada’s military budget is 9.3B; essentially a rounding error here.
