Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

CBC, Trudeau, Ford, Star…., condescendingly: “Donald Trump doesn’t understand….”
“Trade deficits are subsidies”
Does that sound like someone that does?
Too literal Allan, running your country as a military protectorate of the US is a susidy though.

John Ivison: Trump fools around and finds out the foolishness of fighting Canadians
https://nationalpost.com/opinion/john-ivison-trump-fighting-canadians [get it at archive.is]
Ivison has spent years slagging Trudeau & the Liberals.
Perhaps a bit of Gleichschaltung on the Canadian side as well.
“Ivison has spent years slagging Trudeau & the Liberals.”
John Ivison? The wee pink Scottie?
He wrote a book on Trudeau, an “unblinkered warts-and-all look at Justin Trudeau and the Liberal government’s record in power.”
Ivison is a socialist dirtbag, always praising that greasy f-g.
FOAD dizzy
BACK TO THE FUTURE? Our present government has no interest in making a deal. They were on life support and a fight with Trump is what they believe is their lifesaver. Much like covid saved them in 2021. I would say there is at least a 50% probability it will work. It will be and is driven by fear and emotions. They have little to lose. For the rest of us it will be extraordinary costly.
Stockholm syndrome. After being abused by TruDOPE and the Lieberals for their entire regime, especially Covid, this is just another example of the Nudge Unit at work, using the same phrasing and jingos they used for Covid.
This is a lost country of mindless droids and simpletons.
” They have little to lose. For the rest of us it will be extraordinary costly.”
Yes it will be…and they know that. They just don’t care.
Power is all they live for, and if Canadians are dumb enough to fall for this ruse by rallying around the Liberals as they “stand up for Canada” then we deserve every hardship that is about to befall us.

So many wheels are turning. For those too young to remember, there was a profound Republican rhetorical shift for the 2000 election. Instead of the usual talk of reducing taxes and the size and scope of government, the installed nominee, short-bus George, campaigned with the themes that American voters wanted their government to be run like a business, that American voters didn’t mind Big Government. They just wanted their government to be run efficiently. Mark Steyn noted at the time (I couldn’t find an obvious link at his current website) that the Rs were trying to reformulate politics in the US to be like politics in Europe where every election revolves around arguments about which party can run the government most efficiently. The Rs made a big show out of running female CEO candidates, the highest profile ones, which all lost by wide margins, were Meg Whitman, Carly Fi????, and Linda McMahon (yes! that Linda McMahon). There never was any real evidence that Republican voters wanted CEO candidates nor that they had given up on their desire to reduce the size and intrusiveness of government. Short-bus George prevailed, however, and governed as if voters really did want an ever more bloated government. During the administrations of Clinton and short-bus George, there was also a lot of talk of merging the US, CA, and Mexico into a single North American Union (NAU) and making that happen by replicating the strategy used to create the EU, first by binding the three countries together economically with the creation of a massive “multi-modal transportation corridor” know as the North American Highway to weaken international borders and national sovereignty and then by imposing an overarching governmental structure on the three component countries.
Fast forward to today and ponder what is happening with the Trump Administration. Trump seems to be helping the globalist uniparty fulfill much of their plans from 25 years ago. The problem with running a government like a business is that businesses are always looking to expand which is not a good thing from an American’s perspective.
Trump has underestimated the Canadian national inferiority complex. The tariffs are a negotiating tool, but you can’t negotiate with a partner that blows their own head off with a shotgun at the table and calls it a counter-offer.
“Trump has underestimated the Canadian national inferiority complex. The tariffs are a negotiating tool, but you can’t negotiate with a partner that blows their own head off with a shotgun at the table and calls it a counter-offer.”
Well said, Daniel. People who think that Trump just blusters and bumbles his way into situations like this without any real plan clearly know nothing about the man.
Well … OTOH … “Orange Man Bad” … appears to be sufficient analysis for 70% of Canadians and 49% of Americans
Deal with Trump? Canadians? Never, as there are too many Canadians suffering from TDS. No, this is the Lieberal’s golden opportunity for political one-upmanship and power. The Liberals know that the majority of Canadians hate Trump, hate Americans and embrace the illusion – with their delusional feeling of superiority and false notion, that Canada possesses the moral high ground. Team Canada’s response? We’re doomed.
