Canada Election 2021: How Trudeau Blew It

 Before the election call, polls indicated that the Trudeau Liberals had a comfy 10 point lead over the main opposition party, the Progressive Conservatives led by the virtually unknown Erin O'Toole. Now, five weeks into the campaign, the PC's have edged into the lead according to Yesterday's Mainstreet poll, while the even righter People's Party has edged ahead of the Greens and all the rest of the also rans.

So again, why? One factor, as we've discussed, must be a widespread assumption that a government calling an election when only halfway through its mandate is either expecting a slump in popularity soon, presumably due to the adverse effects of its profligate and increasingly authoritarian handling of Covid, or because it wants a full four years to accomplish something that will be very unpopular.

But the 1964 US Presidential election between Barry Goldwater and incumbent Lyndon Baynes Johnson suggests another explanation. During that campaign, Senator Goldwater ran on the slogan "In Your Heart You Know He's Right," which prompted a widely resonating riposte: "In Your Heart You Know He's Stupid." That one suspects, is Trudeau's problem. 

But it is a problem compounded by a lack of moral fibre. To put it in the simplest terms, Trudeau is a self-serving corruptionist too stupid to hide his own dishonesty. 

His problem is not just blackface episodes. It is a dozen things: the idiotic dress-up tour of India, the public hankering after Chinese Communist style dictatorship, the multiple breaches of Parliament's ethics code, the crass dismissal of a fine indigenous Attorney General because she would not submit to his inappropriate lobbying on behalf of corrupt SNC Lavelin executives, an action compounded by booting said minister from the Liberal Party caucus, the WEE scandal, and much, much more.

In short, Trudeau has proved to be a poor leadership choice by the Liberals and his performance now has many liberal-identifying Canadians looking elsewhere for leadership. And what they see is that the PC's,  may have the man. 

Erin O'Toole is largely unknown. In appearance he seems normal, and totally average: just your decent, slightly overweight Canadian middle-class family man.  His manner of speech is calm and hardly inspiring, and yet, it turns out, he has all kinds of plans for incremental improvement in the way things are run. 

Thus the outcome of the election seems inevitable. Canadians, among the most cautious people on the face of the planet, will surely opt for the decent, solid, sensible-seeming Mr. O'Toole over the obviously untrustworthy, dishonest and basically idiotic Trudeau, the man who has little if anything going for him other than his undoubted good looks, a famous name and a slavish following of uninspiring liberal MPs.

Why Would Trudeau Call An Election?

 Justin Trudeau, it is reported, will tomorrow call a national election. If so, the Liberals will declare their success in fighting the Covid pandemic as proof of their right to a new lease on power. 

But in reality, it is the imminent and obvious failure of the Government's response to Covid that will explain an election call. This feeble-minded Liberal government wants to snatch another term in office before they roof falls in, and the failure of their Covid response becomes clear to all.

Since promising in 2019 to reduce the Federal Government budget deficit to zero, the Liberals will have, by the end of this year, run deficits totaling half a trillion dollars. That's half a trillion in a one point seven trillion dollar economy. All in the name of Covid.

What does a half trillion dollar budget deficit mean? 

It means inflation, not the Bank of Canada's ludicrous 2% target inflation rate, but real inflation you cannot pretend does not exist, like ten, twenty percent, or more. It is a looting of your savings. And for what? To fund the Government's ludicrous conceit that it could, and should, control a virus with zero point zero something mortality rate, and that mostly among the very old who are about to die anyway.

But now the futility of the Government's response to Covid, both Federal and Provincial, is about to be exposed. 

Protect the vulnerable failed big time. More than half the Canadians who have died of Covid died in care homes, many of them horribly badly run.

As for mandatory mask wearing and near mandatory universal vaccination, LOL. 

The chief consequence of mask wearing is that ignorant people gain a false sense of confidence that allows them to crowd others in public spaces and needlessly expose themselves and others to the risk of infection. 

And, as is increasingly obvious, the vaccines are of limited and short-lived effectiveness: effectiveness that with the emergence of new Covid variants will likely soon be indistinguishable from zero. 

There is no way forward except to follow the example of jurisdictions such as Sweden, South Dakota and Florida. Which means, sooner or later most of us will get Covid, and the focus of medical attention will be on effective treatment, particularly early treatment with cheap and effective supplements such as Vitamin D and zinc, and medications such as Ivermectin. 

So if Trudeau goes for a public vote of confidence, thank him for thus demonstrating his confidence in the judgement of the public, and boot him and the rest of the incompetent pack of spendthrift Liberals out.

Trudeau: Dead Man Walking?

October 22, 2019: Under Justin Trudeau's leadership, the Liberal Party of Canada won more seats than any other party in yesterday's general election, but not a majority in the House of Commons. Moreover, with only 33% of the votes cast, the Liberals received the support of fewer Canadians, a mere four million, than the main opposition Conservative Party.

Given the Trudeau government's four-year record of scandal and incompetence, the election thus confirmed our assessment that few Canadians believed they had anyone to vote for who possessed both the ability and integrity worthy of national leadership.

The outcome of the election should be a shake-up in the leadership of the three national parties, Liberal, Conservative and NDP. For Trudeau, the push may come sooner rather than later if the murmurs of an alleged sex-scandal past have substance.

As a replacement for Trudeau, Jody Wilson-Reybould — the Attorney General and Justice Minister that Trudeau fired from the cabinet and booted from the Liberal Party for the heinous offense of doing her job — seems an obvious choice for the Liberals.

However, since Wilson-Reybould was returned from Vancouver Granville as an independent, the Tories might be wise to beat the Liberals to the punch and invite Wilson-Reybould to be their leader, as a replacement for their damp rag, globalist negative-impact leader, Andrew Scheer.

Meantime, in Germany, another globalist, Angela Merkel, has just admitted that her insame plan for a multi-culti Germany has "utterly" failed

What Trudeau, with his commitment to the genocide of the Canadian nation, i.e., the creation of a post-national Canada, and Frau Merkel will never acknowledge is that a common culture is the pre-requisite of social harmony. Invite people who require rigid adherence to wildly different customs and beliefs to come and pursue their lifestyle in your country and look forward to big trouble.

So are we ruled by really stupid people? Or are they traitors committed to the globalist cause and thus intent on the destruction of the nations they lead?

And is Merkel's admission that multiculturalism has "utterly failed" an acknowledgement of stupidity? 

Not likely.  Merkel, who is on the way out, is using what remains of her credibility to suppress the rising tide of self-defensive German nationalism.

Trudeau seems to be making his own attempt to cover up his globalist allegiance, stating in his post-election victory speech: "In every decision we make as your government, we will always put this country and its people first."

Yeah, we'll believe that when:

(a) we see the cut that most Canadians want in Canada's planned immigration rate, which at one percent of total population per year, is the World's highest per capita rate; and

(b) we see a curb to the power of banks to create the money which grotesquely inflates urban house prices and has already led Canadian families into the heaviest indebtedness in the World.

Canadian Election — The Party Leaders: Four Progs and a Rational Conservative (aka Raaacist). Part 2. Conservative party Leader, Andrew Scheer

To some it may seem surprising to rank the leader of the Conservative Party of Canada among the progs, but the reality is that Conservatives are generally more broadminded and open to new ideas than liberals, who, obsessed by their own virtue, are much inclined to authoritarianism and the resort to hate speech — as in branding opponents RAAAAACISTs, Nazis and white supremacists.

Indeed, until 2003, Canada's Conservatives called themselves the Progressive Conservative Party, and going back to the day of John A. MacDonald, the man who created Canada, conservatives at one point called themselves Liberal Conservatives. In that era, it was John A.'s Conservative government that granted the vote to first nations people over the objection of Liberals, who once in power, revoked the legislation.  Indeed it was only due to the strength of Liberal opposition that MacDonald abandoned a plan to grant women the vote. 

So yes, a Scheer-led Conservative Party would almost certainly be more liberal than the Liberal Party of Justin Trudeau, a staunch admirer of Alt-Left, i.e., Communist, dictatorship from that of Fidel Castro's Cuba, to Mao's bloody revolutionary government of China.

But Liberals and Conservatives are barely ideological in their commitments at all. Rather, both are parties of main chancers seeking to "seize the centre ground," to quote that champion of opportunists, Britain's Tony Blair, the destroyer of Iraq. 

So in what way is Scheer, the only possible alternative, preferable to Trudeau as Prime Minister? 

Four reasons immediately come to mind:

First, though no orator, Scheer can, unlike Trudeau, make a speech without repeatedly gasping for breath while his brain catches up with his mouth.

Second, Scheer displays no paraphiliac inclination to dressing up in ways embarrassing to Canadians and irritating to the people so emulated. 

Third, although a carbon tax appears the best solution to rising atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration and the serious harm that that may cause, Scheer is right to oppose this costly measure as a national policy. 

The chief consequence of the Liberal Government's Carbon tax policy will be to put Canadian industry at a disadvantage versus industry of countries without a carbon tax, in particular, the industry of our greatest trading partner by far, the US. Canada should push for a global carbon tax regime that punishes non-compliant countries with countervailing tariffs, not hobble our energy and energy-intensive industries with a unilaterally imposed carbon tax. 

Fourth, Scheer's plan to promote Canadian R and D leading to technology that reduces carbon emissions, is very interesting. It may be possible, for example, to develop economically viable means of converting tar-sands bitumen, in situ, to hydrogen gas, while leaving the carbon in the ground. Hydrogen could then be used for carbon-free thermal power generation. Moreover, hydrogen, with three times the energy density of kerosene, has in liquified form, interesting potential as an aviation fuel that could massively increase aircraft payloads. 

And one could go on. But as we wrote before, Trudeau's leadership was a desperate gamble after the liberals had experienced three leadership duds in a row. He was promoted to the leadership solely on the basis of his name and good looks. Now we know where a name and good looks wedded to flakey, authoritarian bullshit takes one, and it's time now for change and Scheer's is the face of change.

How Big Tech Will Corrupt Canada's Federal Election This Fall

Jim Balsillie, former CEO of Research in Motion, among Canada's brightest tech innovators, explained today on CBC's morning radio program, the Current, how Mark Zuckerberg and a handful of other tech tycoons will rig our election this fall.

Balsillie interviewed today, on CBC Radio's The Current.

To ensure a fair election, all that the Government of Canada need do is place Canada's political parties under the privacy regulations. However, the Liberal Party in power, having confidence in the liberal bias of big tech, has explicitly denied any intention to take the necesssary action to safeguard the integrity of Canada's next Federal election.

So if you think Canada should have fair elections, send the above links to your MP and ask what they action they will take to ensure a fair election this fall.
