Nobody really has any idea what the minister\u2019s statement will say. She is the champion of activist government on odd-numbered days and of mighty fiscal restraint on even. She will be sure of some new direction on Tuesday, and I suppose it\u2019s a toss-up whether she will even remember by Friday what that direction was supposed to be. The good news, as we were reminded in Halifax,( <a href=\"https:\/\/halifaxtheforum.org\/forum#\">Halifax International Security Forum<\/a>) is that Canada is close to being the least of the world\u2019s problems. The bad news is that it also seems determined to become the least of the world\u2019s remedies.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Source: Paul Wells Substack Nov 20\/23 Things worth fighting for  <\/em><\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/substack.com\/profile\/2617158-paul-wells\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/substack.com\/@paulwells\">PAUL WELLS<\/a><\/p>\n<cite>   <\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"821\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/xgo-to-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24913\" srcset=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/xgo-to-1.jpg 821w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/xgo-to-1-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/xgo-to-1-768x561.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"761\" src=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/xgo-to-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24912\" srcset=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/xgo-to-3.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/xgo-to-3-300x228.jpg 300w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/xgo-to-3-768x584.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/xgo-to-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24911\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"530\" src=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/go-to-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24917\" srcset=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/go-to-2.jpg 750w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/go-to-2-300x212.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"724\" src=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Court-Painter-sideways-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24914\" srcset=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Court-Painter-sideways-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Court-Painter-sideways-2-300x272.jpg 300w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Court-Painter-sideways-2-768x695.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The term &#8220;going sideways&#8221; is believed to have its roots in the military, where it likely originated to characterize a situation deviating from the planned course or escalating into chaos.
