Diversify away from one partnerDeeper continental integration
“There is also a misplaced faith that European relations can replace North American ones, affirmed by the prime minister's intention to address the European Parliament before convening his own country's deliberative body.

Prevention and restraintEnforcement and sentencing
“Should prosecutors fail to bring charges in these cases, and should presiding justices fail to hand down proper sentences of the sort that would both remove genuine threats from our society and disincentivize others who might follow suit, they will have failed in their duties.” Read the piece

Only opinion columns and editorials are scored. Each piece is read twice by a language model, which records the author's own stance on a policy topic only where the piece argues one, with a quote that must appear in the piece. An author's position on a topic is the average of their pieces, weighted by the model's confidence. News reporting is listed but never scored.
