Once upon a time, there was a place where almost everyone wanted to come and call home. A place where everyone lived in peace, a place where refugees and folks who did not stand a fighting chance in their country came to start new and bountiful lives.
This place was called Canada and was the envy of the world when it came to living standards. What has changed, or better still, what has happened?
I think this quote from a certain politician sums it up quite well, “Its enviable standard of living has been squandered by a self-interested, economic elite, and a cowardly political establishment who don’t have the will, or the competency to stand up for Canadians.”
In this article, I will attempt to dissect this quote in layman’s terms. As I have said in paragraph two Canada was indeed in an enviable position. Let’s look at the squandering of this country’s finances and who is responsible.
It is well documented that Justin Trudeau’s government has spent the most money per person, per year in the history of Canada. According to a new report from the Fraser Institute, Trudeau’s government is on track to log the five highest years of per-person spending since Canada existed.
From 2018 to 2022 the Liberal government, headed by Justin Trudeau, spent from $10,422 per person in 2018, to a peak of $19,208 in 2020. So outrageous was this act that Jake Fuss, the Associate Director of the Centre for Fiscal Studies at the Fraser Institute, called the spending, “A new normal.”
Let us look at Justin’s wealth briefly. In his inheritance, he got $45 million from his famous politician father, Justin also has an important investment portfolio that brings him an estimated $27 million.
Other income such as prized possessions (or other revenue streams) grants him another $13 million. As Canada’s Prime Minister, he also gets paid a reported USD 379,000 per annum for his job. If we sum all that up, it is estimated that Justin Trudeau is worth an estimated USD 97 million.
Can someone please explain why a man who is worth 97 million US dollars keeps spending the country’s (aka taxpayer’s money) as though there is no tomorrow? I do believe he is more than capable of giving some of his inheritance to Ukraine! Don’t you?
So far, we have looked at:
- Canada once being bountiful, and upright.
- We looked at who is responsible for fleecing Canada dry.
- We shall now visit the cowardly political establishment who don’t have the testicular fortitude, nor the competency to stand up for Canadians.
I will go into a list of tragic circumstances to establish my point as to what kind of governance Canadians are under. Let’s begin:
- Injured Canadians can expect to wait several hours for ambulances while they hope to stay alive.
- Citizens requiring life-altering surgeries are told by hospital administrators that their best bet is to go to the US for care.
- Instead of being educated, our children are indoctrinated with neo-Marxist ideology.
- They are taught to hate themselves, their history and to fear for the future.
- As crime skyrockets, Canadians are too scared to defend themselves, not because they might get hurt, but because defending themselves, or their families could result in prison time.
Our Prime Minister acts like a tin-pot dictator, freezing the bank accounts and arresting political dissidents, and now Trudeau is introducing new censorship laws to sentence Canadians to life imprisonment for posting politically incorrect content online, and house arrests for those they suspect will commit crimes.
Canadians, I hope the message got home; you deserve better, but you have to believe that you do, which will result in you rejecting this treatment.
Most of what is outlined above was brought about by weak and greedy people.
By now Canadians must have surely realized that no “competent,” nor “strong-willed” men will risk wearing pink high heels.
