Yes smoke and mirrors . Only works on stupid people which we seem to have no shortage of anymore . Canada started falling at a quick pace after the Liberals and Trudeau came to power . All of this is there for anyone to find online but this indoctrinated elbows up group feed off the gospel according to CBC of which there is no light or truth in .

Spot on. A huge part of being a liberal/"progressive" is to scapegoat others for everything wrong in your life or country because responsibility is a dirty word for the elbowzos. On every important metric Canada is worse off now that it was 10 years ago, and when Trump's term ends we'll continue to fall behind on every economic and quality of life metric. I guess at that point it'll be the fault of the "Zionists," which is not hard to imagine when the most popular name for baby boys in Alberta is some iteration of Mohamed.

As usual you told it like it is in straight forward language. It seems the majority of Canadians believe our problems are caused by Trump. Our problems were here long before Trump. The main problem he did cause was to give the Liberals and their Media Partners a way to win an election they were sure to lose. But even that is not Trumps fault .It is the fault of the sheep voters who believed the endless anti Trump rhetoric from the CBC ,CTV etc.

I am a dual citizen who never voted for a Liberal but did vote for Trump twice.

Thanks . And Liz Truss learned the hard way.

First we need to accept …

and face up to Five Realities:

Acknowledging the Cold Truth …Focusing solely on stating the problems—without jumping into fixes. These realities cut through denial and force recognition of the harsh realities we are facing: 

1. Canada Lacks a True Investor Class: Our economy undervalues risk capital, stifling innovation and growth. Too much reliance on government subsidies and crony deals leaves us without bold entrepreneurs to drive real progress.

2. Cold War 2.0 with Communist China: We’re in a new era of geopolitical tension, where China’s expansionist ambitions—through trade dominance, military purges, and alliances like the 2022 Russia-China pact—threaten global stability and Canada’s interests in areas like the Arctic.

3 Debt Crises Gripping Western Nations: With debt-to-GDP ratios exceeding 100%, fiscal pressures limit spending on growth, infrastructure and defence. Unsustainable borrowing.

4.Converging Global Ideologies Fueling Division: Radical forces, including Islamists and far-left groups, are exploiting cultural silos, eroding shared values and promoting group rights over individual freedoms, as seen in policies that prioritize identity over unity.

5 Erosion of Canadian Sovereignty: Our independence is slipping away through overdependence on the US, EU-style bureaucratic overreach, and internal divisions, echoing George Grant’s warnings in Lament for a Nation 1965 about becoming a branch-plant economy.

This sets the stage: these are 5 undeniable facts we must face head-on before any talk of solutions…or HOW to fix.
