Well, he'd be bringing business there as well, so it's also a gesture toward Canada. Kind of like what happens in the free market but at the level of nation states. Peterson is rich enough not to be too severely inconvenienced by this.

Short-term solutions should partially be stoicism at the individual level, accompanied by an international support group.

I'm just talking about Christian values, by the way, and not about a literal understanding of the gospel. God can be taken to represent higher ideals in general. We should believe in those and be willing to make sacrifices for them.
