An ever growing number of Canadians are unable to tell the difference between someone who is actually competent and a run of the mill conman.
Western Standard- The death of merit and how Canada lost its compass.
The decline of merit is the story of modern Canada. It began as a slow corrosion under Justin Trudeau, whose rise was fuelled by name recognition and emotional politics rather than achievement. It deepened under Chrystia Freeland, who turned fiscal management into performance art. And it has continued under Mark Carney, whose credentials might suggest competence but whose actions have proven the opposite. These are not isolated examples; they are milestones on a national journey away from merit and toward mediocrity.
Spot on. Every “expert” on television news reports is now a 30 something gurrlll or a brown guy. No one else need apply.
Not a surprise when the average Kanadian voter chants and does the chicken dance thingy while waiting in line to vote Lieberal. Not a surprise at all.
“It began as a slow corrosion under Justin Trudeau ….”
Wrong turdo.
Bingo.
yes, it was the first turdo and no it’s not incompetence or stupidity….. it is being done with purpose and intent …. orchestrated by the chicoms since the 1970’s….. and yes I’m that old
Wrong turdo.
This, Jamie. In spades.
We have moved into the stage of democracy that is mob rule.
Or, Idiocracy.
The Feelings People – Mewling Quims and Nutless Cowards – are bringing forth our doom.
In the future, the ex-Domion of Canada will be the Shining Example of western national suicide.
Merit is racist.
“they are milestones on a national journey away from merit and toward mediocrity.”
Trudeau, Freeland, and Carney: if only they had risen to the level of mediocrity, eh?
As a life long bureaucrat Carney is the poster boy for this.
Never underestimate a bureaucrats ability to utter pablum level word salad to describe the successful completion of a mundane task as a once in a lifetime world changing event by “focusing synergies for optimal throughputs”.
