Congrats, Canadians: You’re world leaders in debtTHE CANADIAN PRESS/Ryan Remiorz
Not every record is worth celebrating. Instead, there are some dubious achievements that should prompt sober self-reflection.

She demanded the Conservatives in Ottawa and Alberta stop pretending climate change isn’t real because it’s getting in the way of getting pipelines approved.
She saved some of her starkest words for members of her own party in Ottawa and other provinces, whose efforts to protect the environment cannot come at the expense of people…
