Article content This election isn’t about Mark Carney, Pierre Poilievre, or even Donald Trump. It’s about trust. Can the Liberals be trusted to do the things necessary to put Canada first? Or put another way: Who is gullible enough to vote for the Liberals (for a fourth time!) believing they will change their over-spending and under-investing ways? Too many people are already making this election about Trump, throwing up their hands in horror that Canada is about to be annexed by a belligerent America.
It’s not. Canada won’t ever become the 51 st state. The Americans aren’t coming.
This isn’t 1812, and if it was, then dammit we’ll burn down the White House again. Trump is going to be a pain in the derriere for the next four years and whoever is prime minister is going to have a hard job dealing with him. But the threat to Canada is from within, it’s the harm we have done to ourselves and will continue to do.
It’s about how after almost ten years of Liberal misrule we have left ourselves vulnerable to Trump’s policies. It wasn’t the Barbarians at the Gates that destroyed Rome, it was Rome itself. We are at the economic mercy of the U.
S. president because we have not invested in ourselves, we have not innovated in the ways we needed and we have not built the infrastructure required. And it has been the active Liberal policy for nine years not to do any of those things.
If the Liberals are so proud of their record why are they trying to undo it at a rate so.
