Foreign leaders see Trudeau more clearly than Canadian liberals

But even Canadian liberals are waking up to the disaster he has been as PM

India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi captured the growing sentiment about Trudeau recently, saying:

“Justin Trudeau is a mascot for everything wrong in the world today. From being at the forefront of encouraging every degeneracy to welcoming radicalism into his homeland, from cheap gimmicks of tokenism to atttempts at creating a culture of politically correct absurdities, the stink of his leftist hypocrisy wafts far and wide. As a citizen of India I could not care less if the elected leader of Canada seeks to drive his nation to the dumps. But where it has an adverse effect on my country is where I choose to draw the line.”

I can remember when Mike Pearson, another Liberal, was Prime Minister and was internationally renowned for his diplomacy and leadership. The Liberal party has certainly changed from the 1960’s. It is an out of control socialist regime that overtly seeks to damage Canada and pillage the livelihoods of Canadians with smarmy speeches, false promises, and a litany of corruption scandals.

Canadians get it. They are investing their money overseas, while foreign investors are preferring other areas to invest.

Since 2126, Canada has lost $225 billion of investment according to economist Jack Mintz.

With capital fleeing Canada and the borders open to massive immigration, the result is lower per capita GDP for Candians, widely outpaced by United States post-pandemic.

The lower standard of living is not just a puerile statistic. A recent report Food Banks Canada finds one in four Canadians lives in poverty today.

For most of the 58 years I have been old enough to vote, I have voted Liberal. The Liberal party when I voted Liberal stood for balanced budgets, small government, personal freedom, compassionate social policies and sensible energy policies. During the years before Trudeau came into office, Canada built the TransCanada Pipeline, the Enbridge pipeline system, one of the worlds largest and most successful energy industries, a strong manufacturing sector all with a social safety net that was a reliable source of sustenance for those legitimately in need. Today, Trudeau crushes energy investment on the pretense that CO2 causes climate change, ran on a platform of stopping pipeline construction, imposes restrictions on free speech, uses the War Measures Act to quell a peaceful protest in Ottawa, seizes Canadian’s bank accounts and jails Canadians who disagree with him without due process.

Canada is a democracy and you get who you elect. The strength of democracy it its ability to change its mind. In 2025, it seems likely that Trudeau and his regime will be looking for new jobs and Pierre Poilievre will lead a new government that may be branded Conservative but will enact legislation and policies that in 1960 would have been seen as Liberal.

I can’t wait.
