… You will not learn from mainstream media that the average Canadian does not buy into every sacred Liberal shibboleth, including the most cherished cultural and economic obsessions. And despite strenuous efforts, Prime Minister Trudeau has not radically shifted the spectrum of politically acceptable policies (the so-called Overton Window, after the late American libertarian activist Joseph Overton, who introduced it).
Canadians tend to be middle-of-the-road, commonsensical and patriotic. Overwhelmingly, they are not woke iconoclasts eager to tear down statues or postmodern ideologues preoccupied with identity politics and alternative lifestyles. Rather, they are pragmatic, fair-minded people who support aboriginal reconciliation and acknowledge history’s dark chapters but do not believe Canada is systemically racist or genocidal.
I think the CPC braintrust believes they do.
