In his introduction to a nation that didn’t know Mark Carney was a solution to anything, Carney insisted that Canadians want new ideas, new energy, new purpose. And who were the architects of the malaise requiring such an overhaul? The Liberals themselves. You can’t make up this stuff.

For those wondering how it got to this point where the nation faces external and internal peril, look no further than the kamikaze attacks on the American election by the son of Pierre Trudeau, previously the most imperious man to be PM. Writing cheques with his mouth PMJT now asks Team Canada to back them up with its butt. Suggesting Canada change their brand of ketchup (now debunked) is typical of this unserious approach.

If Trudeau lets the crisis go past Feb. 1 without a deal or an election call it will led to the worst constitutional crisis since conscription in WW I and II. Expect no mercy from down south. Every turn of the screw on Canada increases Donald Trump’s polling. The Family Compact ain't saving you, Skippy. And they won’t save the midwits who elected Trudeau PM three times.

The Liberals culture club think that, if they can just pass off Skippy as remotely capable, they can dress up Carney as an outsider for gullible Canadian voters. But Carney may have accidentally have tripped over the truth. He is now an outsider. You see, the dotty Libs think the machine that selected/ elected Skippy in 2015 still works. It doesn’t.

The Trudeau time line to hang on as PM till October was destroyed by Trump’s mockery about a 51st state. Trump’s agitation made it obvious that Canada could not trust Trudeau to negotiate with POTUS 45/ 47.  With PMJT absent, premiers like Doug Ford (Ontario) and Danielle Smith (Alberta) went around Surfer Boy to appeal to Americans for mercy. But the void remains.

Trump/ Trudeau is a Fever all its own. Canadians fed a diet of MSNBC eye-rollers think it’s the end of our culture. Whether it’s better or worse they will find out in the next 12 months. But the reason Trump is here is that your friends who spread the Fever can no longer be trusted. Turning off the porch light doesn’t convince the dangerous opportunists not to ring your door bell.

The current version of Freeland is the plucky woman who was fired on a Zoom call by a man. A woman of integrity who then sent off a stinging letter of resignation in which she revealed she was being pushed aside for a Trudeau buddy Mark Carney. A fiscal warrior who resisted going $60B in the red (she was cool at $40B, however). And, BTW, could she please deliver the government’s financial statement before she’s fired?

Anonymous people spent lifetimes toiling on Nôtre Dame without ever witnessing the completion of their work. And still the master masons, draughtsmen and carpenters saw through their commitment. They worshipped the idea of a Gothic world reaching into the sky to be closer to God. While people perished from war, famine and plague over the centuries, there was money and energy still found to complete this astonishing church. 

Joe Biden wasn’t done with his revenge on Team Obama/ Clooney. For months he’d vowed that his respect for the law was so great he would not rescue his whoring son if he was in danger of jail. No pardon. Then, on his way out the WH door Biden dropped his bomb on those who’d fired him. No pardon become a big pardon. Not for just gun charges, but for anything he’d done dating back to starting work in Ukraine in 2014. 

Donald Trump’s call to reject those who’d prospered in Covid found willing ears in the United States. His resounding sweep in the 2024 elections— every state in the union moved rightward in voting—  was the final rebuke to those who preached certainty. The same people who sloughed off not one, but two assassination attempts on a presidential candidate as mere distractions.

It can be safely said that the 2024 U.S. presidential election couldn’t have gone much worse for legacy media in that country. Their biases, conceits and outright falsehoods throughout the arduous years-long slog toward Nov. 5 were exposed that night. Now they face irrelevance.

Like America’s ruling class before the 2024 election, Canada’s brahmins are blithely unaware they are being fitted for a rope in 2025. Confident they know best, they issue columns that declare that the public sometimes gets it wrong in elections. They faint in the face of Elon Musk making X into a dominant  political force. They assume the public is still listening.

Charles De Gaulle famously asked, “How can you govern a nation with 538 different cheeses?” America is about to find out that, in the new media era, covering an election may involve 538 different media sources producing disparate information. With Elon Musk as the ring leader.

It’s telling that, while at least 50 percent of Americans see through Kamala Harris and the DEMs coup narrative as complete bushwah, probably 90 percent of Canadians-- led by the corporate media-- lap up these condescending narratives. Their biggest fear remains that the populist revolt against authority in the U.S. might threaten Canada’s elite class.

From worshipful respect, Elon Musk is now met with scorn, derision and, in Europe, plans to censor him permanently. Brazil shut down X completely. British intelligence targeted his association with Trump. The radical Left in the U.S., accustomed to its version of truth, suddenly decided that Musk was in line with Nazis and the Far Right. It’s a bracing assault.

Barack Obama borrowed from MLK Jr. when he said, “The arc of of the moral universe is long but it bends toward justice”. Trudeau realizes that he’s been in charge for a long time, but dreams that, if hangs on long enough, justice will one day declare him the new man, unburdened by his record. Good luck with that. 

While French-language Radio Canada might still have a cultural argument in Quebec to make for its continued existence, no such imperative faces English CBC services anymore. The private production side and the digital world are perfectly capable of finding the next Schitt’s Creek or Pottery Challenge without air cover from the feds. So the Libs survival strategy now is attack, attack, attack.

It is said that a week is a long time in politics. In this case a decade has been more than enough to bring Western Civilization to its knees. Kind hearts are finally realizing the impact of using Aylun Kurdi as a rationale for unlimited immigration has been a disaster for their culture.

Trudeau makes a convenient avatar for the entire managerial class that sins greatly but uses its privilege to avoid accountability. Watching him slough off the poor clods he represents as PM, Trudeau is as stand-in for every politician and Blob creature who employed, to use one example, Covid to trample all that’s sacred in society without ever having to say sorry. 

Most living in Canada would agree that a crumbling infrastructure and healthcare shortages could justify adding bodies to the public rolls. But a deep dive into those jobs extolled by the PM shows an explosion of new positions, not in public works or the military, but in the vanity areas of DEI, gender equality and climate change.
