Deplorables killed Net-Zero and ESG. I Know! Let's Steal the National Parks!

[Danielle is gung-ho about net zero. That worries me. Is she just going along with the crowd to get to a higher goal or does she actually believe that crap?]

No, they handed the country to a global finance creature who parachuted into Canadian politics from the stratosphere, grabbed the wheel, and started pulling levers on behalf of the exact class of people liberals claim to hate.

That’s the joke. That’s the scam.

The same people who want to burn symbols of wealth voted for a man who practically is a symbol of transnational wealth. A banker. A globalist. A man marinated in elite institutions. A man whose instincts, loyalties and ...
