How Justin Trudeau went from liberal darling to possibly endangered species

Janet Clarkson knows what happens when Canadian voters have “unrealistic expectations” about a politician’s leadership in office: “They vote you out. Period. And that can happen to Prime Minister Trudeau in Monday’s election.”

The Star’s editorial board endorses Liberals for 2021 federal election

The election campaign that ends on Monday has been unnecessary — a $610-million distraction in the middle of the worst public health crisis in a century. The vast majority of Canadians, according to recent polls, do not believe it should have even been called in the first place.

In Toronto, Trudeau’s Rivals See a Chance to Breach His Fortress

Toronto has been Justin Trudeau’s unassailable political fortress ever since he swept to power almost six years ago. In two elections, he’s never lost a seat in Canada’s largest city, and his Liberal Party holds most of the suburbs, too.

It won’t be easy to repeat that, as Trudeau faces attacks on both sides ahead of the Sept. 20 vote. Conservatives think they can snatch seats in outlying areas, but in the urban core, the left-wing New Democratic Party is the biggest threat. Both parties are trying to capitalize on voters’ concerns about an overheated housing market.

Canadian elections: why ‘Mad Max’ Bernier could hold the key to a Trudeau victory

Maxime Bernier, a pugnacious populist and leader of the anti-lockdown People’s Party of Canada, has called Justin Trudeau a “fascist psychopath” who “must be defeated”.

However, if the embattled Canadian prime minister retains power in tomorrow’s election, he may have “Mad Max”, as supporters call him, to thank.

Trudeau Seeks a Fresh Start, but Many Voters See a Power Grab

A snap election that was supposed to be a show of strength has instead allowed opponents to highlight the prime minister’s weak points.

BURNABY, British Columbia — Outside a TV studio in a Vancouver suburb where Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of Canada was recording an interview days ahead of the country’s election, a man shouted insults, mostly obscene, about Mr. Trudeau and his family while blasting Twisted Sister’s “We’re Not Gonna Take It” from a stereo on a cart.

Heckling is something Mr. Trudeau has always faced, but this time the attacks have new bite. After six years in office, a prime minister who promised “sunny ways” and presented himself as a new face is now the political establishment, with a track record, and missteps, for opponents to criticize. Even if the Liberal Party clings to its hold on Parliament, as observers expect, this bruising election campaign has done him no favors.

Chinese COVID Vaccine Based on Technology Developed Jointly by Fired Winnipeg Scientist and PLA Major General: Expert

 

The COVID-19 vaccine developed by Chinese company CanSino, with whom Ottawa partnered before the deal fell through, used technology developed in a 2016 paper on Ebola by a now-fired scientist from a government laboratory in Winnipeg and a Chinese major general, an expert says.

The government’s partnership on the clinical development of the CanSino vaccine, first announced on May 12, 2020, fell apart on Aug. 26, 2020, after Beijing blocked shipment of the vaccine to Canada.

Canada’s China Class is working hard to suppress the truth of their treason.

The persistent threat of foreign interference in Canada’s democracy – Communist China Backs Trudeau

“… The threat of foreign interference in this election has already been detected. A Chinese Communist Party-owned media platform, Global Times, published an article last week to discredit Conservative leader Erin O’Toole and his party’s platform. The anonymous article threatened Canadians with a “counterstrike” if they elect a Conservative government. The article is the very definition of foreign interference.

MPs from different parties have also been targeted by Beijing aligned actors in efforts to influence the election outcome in their ridings. One of them is Conservative MP, Kenny Chiu, who introduced a private members bill in June 2021 to create a federal Canadian registry for individuals and organizations that act on behalf of identified, malign foreign regimes.”

Canada’s treasonous China class is deeply embedded in the Liberal Party. Both Xi and his minion Justin want to quash inquiries into the Winnipeg virus lab.

Bernier Says Party Will Win Seats in Election

TORONTO, Canada: Populist People’s Party of Canada (PPC) leader Maxime Bernier is confident his party will win seats in Canada’s federal election on Monday and believes the PPC will force other parties to enter a debate on freedom.

Just days before Monday’s Canadian federal election, populist PPC leader Maxime Bernier held several events on Thursday in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and in Toronto itself.

I hope he’s right!

Net-zero will be net-painful

How is working towards a complete system change that will lower our standard of living ‘Building Back Better’?

When asked why he called the election, Justin Trudeau said, “The decisions your government makes right now will define the future your kids and grandkids grow up in… Canadians need to choose how we finish the fight against COVID-19 and build back better.” He’s right. The result of this election will decide whether Canada continues to be a free and prosperous country or something else. Vaccine passports are the current focus of campaign debate about our freedom and way of life but there is a longer-term, less obvious, even more important threat to our values and principles: the commitment to a net-zero transition by 2050.

Rex Murphy: Sorry Obama, but Trudeau shouldn’t win

Just a couple of days to go. Deo gratias.

And after the nearly six weeks of blather, promises and attacks, where are we?

We are where we were at the beginning, still perplexed behind our masks, crossing the street when we see a fellow Canadian approaching and noticing he’s exhaling a little too lustily, why Justin Trudeau called this vain election during a still-raging pandemic.

This is what happens when you call an election Canadians don’t want

On Aug. 15, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau visited newly minted Governor General Mary Simon in order to dissolve Parliament and call a snap election. He argued that this election would allow Canadians to have a say in who should guide Canadians out of the pandemic.

Of course, the prime minister’s greater goal was to seize the (perceived) opportunity to win a majority government. Neither the arrival of the election, nor the prime minister’s motives, were a surprise to Canadians. But Trudeau himself appears surprised to learn that Canadians did not want an election, which is clearly having a detrimental impact on Liberal fortunes in the polls.

Historically, Conservative leaders typically own the unenviable label of being the leader that Canadians believe has a hidden agenda. However, Canadians say it is the Liberal leader who has the ulterior motive this time around.
