During his holiday downtime, he headed over to the westernmost province of British Columbia for some skiing, where he was caught on camera being welcomed by a local, who said as he went over to shake her hand,
A growing chorus of homegrown profanity has
followed Trudeau wherever he ends up going.
Like he was sacrificing himself for 'the greater good of the country'...
In reality, he was just battering himself up and
tossing himself on the barbecue before his own party did - which
they were expected to do just two days later at a caucus meeting.
Meanwhile, Canadians of all political stripes and
backgrounds are more focused now on how to save their own behinds
from impending economic doom, exacerbated by the
carbon tax imposed by Trudeau, than they are with the abstract
notion that by slitting their fiscal wrists for the planet, they can
control its temperature.
You used to have to actually go abroad for that, but now you can have it Ubered right to your door. Literally...!
There's also the ongoing traveling roadshow of gunplay between Khalistani Sikh separatists and their opponents.
And the Israel-Palestine protests and counterprotests, one of which saw a participant threaten her opponents with another Holocaust, then asking if they needed clarification on what that was because she'd gladly explain it.
Canadians... always polite and helpful...
If that still seems like a lot, it is. Like, who
are these people...?
After all, when Trudeau marginalized those who opted to pass on the Covid shots, they willingly fell into line and picked fights with friends and family.
...Trudeau said three years ago, blaming the pro-choice for his own government's draconian diktats.
And when Trudeau blamed Russian disinformation for the fact that,
But one could also say that these credulous Canadians are victims, too.
After all, under Team Trudeau during the
Covid fiasco, the military used social media to deploy
weapons-grade propaganda honed on the battlefield of Afghanistan to
enforce establishment narratives, as the Ottawa Citizen
reported in 2021.
But in announcing his exit, Trudeau has also joined the many other Western establishment leaders trying to save their shared establishment agenda from voter wrath, particularly of the populist kind, as they seek to purge their national leadership of anyone considered even remotely involved with the mess made.
Trudeau's gambit now involves suspending the Canadian parliament rather than dissolving it in favor of an immediate election.
With parliament prorogued until March 24, it
gives the Liberals time to find a new leader and then simply plop
him into Trudeau's role when parliament resumes with a new throne
speech and a new direction... like nothing ever happened...
That would require an election... which has to be held sometime before the Fall anyway, but a new Liberal leader might buy the party some time to try clawing back some of that 24-point lead that the Conservatives now enjoy.
A lead that could result in a landslide victory
and a long odyssey across the political desert for the establishment
Liberals who've long thought that 'they own the place'...
US President-elect Trump reacted to Trudeau's announcement by,
No doubt in jest, but the Trudeau-led Canadian establishment trying to subvert democracy by sprinkling glitter on a dumpster fire in a last-ditch effort to cling to power, sounds more like,
