Canadian Conservatives are furious with Donald Trump. He ruined it for them, see? His talk of Governor Trudeau and a 51st State saved the Liberals! If Trump had just kept his big, fat mouth shut Poilievre and the Conservatives would have won!
Yeah, maybe. Actually, there does seem to be some exit polling to support this – especially Boomer Canadians seemed to cast their ballot based on the assumption that Carney will Resist Donald Trump. But that just makes it even more funny.
Hey, I’ve got a soft spot in my heart for Canada. America’s hat is filled with some nice people – and not just NHL draft picks! But it is also filled with some not so nice people. To be fair, their bad people are just like America’s bad people – insane Leftists who hate everything Canada stands for and want to totally destroy the country. The trouble for Canada isn’t that Trump called Trudeau a governor…it is that even the so-called Conservatives of Canada have bought the Left’s version of Canada.
It all started with the Official Languages Act of 1969 – enacted, it should be noted, by Pierre Elliott Trudeau…officially recorded as Justin’s dad but everyone has already noted Justin’s resemblance to Fidel Castro. Strong assumption that while Pierre was in Havana lauding the glories of the Communist Revolution, Mrs Trudeau was getting a detailed tour of Fidel’s bedroom. But, hey, Commies don’t care about that – giving it up for the leaders of the Revolution is a long held tradition amongst Commies and I’m sure if it did happen, Pierre felt it was an honor. OTOH, looking at Justin I can’t help but feel that Fidel is looking up from his eternal residence and is rather disappointed in his progeny…whatever else you want to say about Fidel, he was a manly man…Justin…isn’t even all that feminine a woman. But, anyways: the Official Languages Act: people think it just made French and English official languages in Canada and that was how it was sold – but the details made Canada officially Multicultural…and while the public mind probably thought it meant that French and English cultures would coexist, it really meant that any race-baiter with gripe could latch on to it and get government subsidy and veto power over policy. And that is pretty much what happened. It was the downfall of Canada – it essentially said that Canada was a mistake, that Canadians by making Canada had done wrong and that everyone who hated Canada now had an unlimited claim on Canadians.
And the elder Trudeau did this because he hated Canada. No, seriously; despised the whole thing. When WWII started he was 20 years old and felt that the war had nothing to do with him…just a useless fight between Great Powers. He later claimed regret about not volunteering to fight Nazism but that was merely post-facto drivel to retain political viability. He was Left – the Left doesn’t care about the country. Any country. He might have felt a need to support Communists against Nazis, but he’d never feel it was important to defend Canada against Germany. He entered politics just so he could dismantle the entity called Canada and replace it with something else – something Left. Keep in mind that though French Canadian, he also wanted nothing to do with Quebec nationalists…because he hated Quebec as much as he hated Canada. The last thing the Left wants is to replace one home of patriots with two homes for patriots. He wanted Quebec to remain in Canada so he could destroy both places at the same time.
And as we see in human history, what you pay for is what you get – Canada stopped paying to make patriotic Canadians and started paying for people who hated Canada. Year by year since 1969 the number of people latching on to hating Canada has grown while the number of Canadian patriots declined…to the point now that patriots are a distinct minority in their own country and even the so-called Conservative Party accepts horrors like MAID (that is Medical Assistance In Dying…a quite Orwellian acronym which stands for killing anyone who is old, or sick or is just feeling a bit sad as a means of relieving the health budget). Heck, I checked the Conservative platform and their policy on immigration is simply that they’ll import foreigners more efficiently than the Liberals. Naturally, the Conservatives ran huge numbers of either foreign-born or children of immigrants for office…all clearly showing that being Canadian wasn’t a priority for them. And of course it didn’t work – Liberal Lite vs Liberal is always going to have one outcome.
And that is what doomed the Conservatives…not Trump trolling Justin. Oh, sure, it might have given an extra excuse for Canadians to vote Liberal, but the Liberal rot of Canada is deep and wide. Reminder: the Canadians returned Trudeau to office at the height of the Covid insanity. Having your own government lock you in at home wasn’t sufficient cause to toss the Liberals out…so, Trump quiet or Trump loud wasn’t really going to make a difference.
All around the West we see this – a country officially adopting some multicultural mechanism and then year by year hating itself more and more…to the point where being a patriot is a political liability. And any reaction from the people, when it comes, is too little, too late. I’ve seen protests in Ireland and Britain about the invasions of their country but its all really rather sad. Pathetic. They are disarmed and their Ruling Class has already ensured that they’ll be outvoted every election…and, truth be told, the people who are protesting against the destruction of their own countries still want that “free” government cheese…still want socialized medicine, massive vacation time, generous unemployment benefits, paid maternity/paternity leave, “free” education…on and on and on…and both Left and Right parties give it to them and anyone who takes even the slightest exception to it all is cast out of society. When even Right Brits, Canadians and French talk about preserving their values they aren’t talking about preserving their Christian heritage, their patriotic love of country, their willingness to die for what they believe…they’re talking about preserving the Welfare State for themselves. They just don’t like foreigners getting a check and moving into their neighborhoods. I can’t see any path to recovery for them.
Heck, I only barely see one for us – we’re always a little behind developments in the West. Our Constitution makes change slow…gives us a chance to call a halt. The Democrats have been working diligently to short-circuit our Constitution and ensure we go the way of Canada but they weren’t quite able to get it done and so we got Trump II. We hope that this will put us back on a path to sanity…but nothing is guaranteed. And if the Democrats come back in before the Trump policies become entrenched, then we’ll never get another shot at it…Democrats will simply dispense with the Constitution (likely by packing the Courts and getting whatever rulings they need to impose their views) and that will be that. But we at least have a path out – for the rest of the West, not much hope. Some for Poland and Hungary…but we see that in Romania the EU managed to annul the election of the “wrong” candidate and they got Meloni in Italy to toe the migrant line…once again, “free” government cheese being the motivator here…vote the wrong way, and the welfare checks will stop.
In my opinion, the USA is going to stand alone in the world – we might be able to keep some semi-allies (Japan, India) but only for specific purposes (in their cases, defending against China) but if we restore sanity in America, we’ll mostly be a pariah State. The world will hate us because we’ll be free, sane and patriotic. A standing condemnation of them – and people don’t like to be condemned. We should start working towards a time when we’ll accept Christian and Jewish refugees from Western nations…people who are, say, getting harassed, jailed or killed because they don’t want to be Left. On the firm condition, of course, that they renounce their former allegiance! But these sorts of people will strengthen us long term. We should also start thinking of Europe in terms of any parts of it we want to control – their birth rates are collapsing and they’re being replaced…they will cease to be European but there might be some strategic points we want to seize for our own security interests (Trump isn’t actually joking about taking over Greenland and taking back the Panama Canal…strategically, we have to start thinking about what we need to be secure in the world). We’ll have to build ourselves an unbeatable fleet and restore as much domestic mining, manufacturing and farming as we can…because anything we depend on the world for will soon be at the mercy of people who hate us and want us dead.
And those who want us dead will reside in Ottawa as much as in Paris and Berlin. I hate to think in terms like that – it is such a wrench from the past. But things are as they are – the peoples of the West have made their choice. It is to die – and we are choosing to live. These are irreconcilable world views – absolutely hostile to each other. One or the other must eventually be destroyed so the other may exist. And in that, I’m going to choose my nation – my people – over everyone else.
