"Canada must try to lead the world’s response. "

That seems to be the only reference to Canada leading in the entire article despite the article title of " African famine should be Canada’s moment to lead"

Most of the article, of course, is slamming Trump and the U.S. for not continuing to provide the bulk of the relief as if there are no other options.

And all of these frequent "Canada's chance to lead" or "Canada should be leading" are nothing more than a slightly disguised way of self-esteem building. Canada is not doing anything in the particular area being discussed, but it so naturally qualified that its surprising.  But not just participating. Canada is so good that if it did participate, it would be as the leader. This just contributes to a delusional self-image because this theme is repeated for what seems like multiple times a week.
