nobody is trying to win, but the Canadian government is sure as hell trying to make the Canadian people the losers here.

It's an antithesis, a rhetorical device.

Making Canadians the losers doesn't mean the sole intention is to fuck with people. I've already said it's a political stunt.

Thanks for clarifying. More of an exaggeration than antithesis, but now I get it.
