In my view, Canada can inflict real personal pain on Trump using nothing but domestic legislation, your regulations and diplomatic savvy. Do it right and you can also effectively pressure his broligarch enablers.

Trump’s drive to install corrupt authoritarianism gives Canada leverage over the U.S. president that Russia only wishes it had. Here are five weapons in your arsenal:

  1. Crack down on crypto corruption.
  2. Shine light on shady real estate buyers.
  3. Tackle tax havens and money laundering.
  4. Punish broligarchs for the social harm they cause.
  5. Yank Musk’s supply chain.

    Aside from Canadian criminals?
