The current vogue now is to blame all our troubles, here in Canada, on Trump.
I saw this on the Canada Campaign site and have copied it. Originally written by someone called Andrew Laturnus. I have added a few to the original post:
-Trump didn't stop our export pipelines from being built.
-Trump didn't drive half a trillion dollars of capital investments out of Canada.
-Trump didn't stall the growth of our GDP/capita for the last ten years.
-Trump didn't flood our country with millions of migrants.
-Trump didn't throw away hundreds of billions of our dollars on "green" energy.
-Trump didn't cause our housing costs to skyrocket.
-Trump didn't make the Canadian government borrow $600 billon. -Trump didn't legalize hard drugs.
-Trump didn't create our healthcare crisis.
-Trump didn't cause 1/3 of Canadians to go hungry, and food bank usage to more than double.
-Trump didn't turn our dollar into monopoly money.
-Trump didn't push DEI in our country which caused many to be hired -not for their expertise- but for their color, gender, ethnicity.
-Trump didn't make Trudeau break his promise to Veterans
-Trump didn't denigrate and decimate our military.
-Trump didn't insult thousands of Canadians just trying to protest a wrong.
-Trump didn't call an EA on Canadians. Trudeau did.
-Trump didn't cause Trudeau to make a fool of himself in India.
-Trump didn't force Trudeau to slap a carbon tax on Canadians that no one wants, and that has done little but make life more expensive!
-Trump didn't have anything to do with how Trudeau treated Jody Wilson-Raybould, Vice Admiral Mark Norman, General Fortin and others!
No, the blame can be put squarely on Trudeau and the spendthrift, divisive and inept government that he and his ministers and MPs have run for the last 9 plus years. 😡
Listening to Ganum talking about the referendum and how to prove eligibility to vote made me realize this isn't news. The Feds have been doing this for many elections as I had to explain to many voters you don't reside in a postal box. You need a legal land description if rural to vote. They could use their photo idea and a bill or statement with legal address to get a ballot. I don't understand why this is becoming a problem as in Provincial elections the same rule applies. Why is this a problem for the referendum? Ganum didn't realize that a postal box wouldn't be enough although IMHO he is just a former news reader.
