Killed it! Junior exec reference is particularly funny! I thought, too, that in her campaign launch she did a great job of saying that she’d be running against her own record in government. She was smiling at the time.
In its smug self-satisfaction Canada defines itself as "Not like America" or, more pointedly, "Not like Trump's America". Canada is enlightened and not racist. Canada loves every race color and creed. Canada a is nonjudgemental. Diversity is its strength. Canada wants to be the world's dumping-ground, like Sweden and Holland. Anyone who thinks that Canada can change its national character by defenestrating Justin Trudeau does not understand Canada's national character. Canada simply cannot be "like Trump's America".
I think with the way things are going, Canada will be like East Germany (buckling under the weight of socialism) and America will be like West Germany (rich and thriving).
It's tough when you're not that kind of Canadian. My great-great-great grandfather, Robert Baldwin of the Baldwin-Lafontaine "great experiment," which brought responsible government to Canada in the 1840s, is rolling over in his grave.
You are like I was: I lived in NYC from 1978 until 2012. I was ruled by the kind of people who hate people like me: employed taxpayers. I know what alienation feels like.
Yes! The Baldwins arrived in Muddy York on July 13, 1799. Robert Street. Mount Pleasant, the name of the Baldwin farm, County Cork when they lived in Ireland. Spadina was their driveway. Spadina House was their home. Osgoode Hall was designed by Robert Baldwin's father, the Honourable William Warren Baldwin. Thus Warren Road and many more! Sadly, the Baldwins are now considered DWEMs: Dead White English Males and no one under 75 or 80 has any idea who they are or how they impacted the founding of Canada.
What a delightful article, such a depressing state of affairs made lighter by hilarious descriptions of the morons lining up for a chance at the corruption table and a pretty pension to top it off.
Who cares who wins the Libtard leadership race or whatever Jagmeet Singh says, Poilievre will become PM then within two years, voters will be bitching that he hasn't saved Canada from the economic disaster that took 10 years to create or reverse all of the stupid bills passed since 2015.
If l were PP, l would be begging for Putins forgiveness and hope it's not too late to join BRICS.
The Librano$ can't produce one person of gravitas to lead their pitiful party, just smug, greedy, narcissistic, grifters who've screwed the rest of us and destroyed our country. When I clicked on your link to Gould's announcement video, the popup said the site couldn't be reached. So I went to YouTube, clicked on one of the many announcement videos and my screen went dark. All I could hear was her voice with no way to exit. I had to reboot my computer. What THE ...???
Just accept your fate as the 51st state, then you can look down your nose at California’s dysfunction, and feel smug in the fact that you’re not worse than CA!
I accept! The only problem is... Canada as a state would add electoral votes and I can guarantee you they won't be in the GOP column. Alberta maybe? I keep dreaming of a nice little farm in Alberta, land of the free. Meanwhile, thank your lucky stars for your Founding Fathers and new president.
You are correct. I have mucho family/friends in QC/BC, and they make my CA neighbors look absolutely MAGA in comparison. I'm quite to oddity at (Canadian) Thanksgiving. Yeah our FF's knew a thing or two about human nature, and wrote quite the elegant document to prove it. It sure would be nice if people would just try to adhere to its principles rather than use it for toilet paper. Dare to dream...
Great Read! I purchased my Liberal Party Membership with the intention of voting for the guy who can't speak French or English. Since he was thrown overboard it's, "Ru-by! Ru-by! Ru-by".

On average, Canada is poorer than the poorest state, which is 37% black.

Is that who Baldwin Street is named for?

🙏 yes, trying to at least laugh is the only way through.

Perfect, Liz! Karina Gould = poison pablum.

Just watched it. BARF. The woman's tone deaf, all the gravitas of **it on a shoe.
Yes, that pretty much sums it up.
OMG! Brilliant. Yay, Squeaky.

Liz adds a little economics to her analysis...I like it!

Don! I’m a Rubymaniac too! Roo-BE! Roo-BE!
Truly loved the Tracy Flick comparison. :-)
She's my third last choice for Liberal leadership. Ranked ballots are awesome for people who just want to cause trouble.
A banger! Much appreciated.
YOU are much appreciated.
