I think it's far too early to be making declarations like that.
Things may have shifted for now, but Canadians are quite adept at ignoring the dangers of the world. We shouldn't pretend past behaviours are not an indicator of future ones.
Acting like this shift is permeant right now comes across as similar to those who declared the handshake dead in the peak of COVID. It went out of fashion for a while, but it's back to being the norm again.
Some years back I made the comment that managing defence in Canada was much like fly fishing for 20 lb fish on a 5 lb test. You never know when the line is going to break and you can't pull. You just have to let the fish run and pull in the slack when you can.
Now is one of those times to reel in hard and fast. Get what you can while it is on offer.
