Canada’s Corrupt Liberal Government

With Justin Trudeau out of the picture, the prospect of a female Liberal leader has grown, with MP Chrystia Freeland and former BC premier Christy Clark rumoured to be potential contenders.

With the party’s support at a new low, however, the prime minister’s decision to prorogue rather than call an election and take the fall himself could set his successor up for almost certain failure.

Longtime cabinet minister Dominic LeBlanc will not be running to replace Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as head of the Liberals. He announced his decision in a statement posted to social media on Wednesday.

LeBlanc — who’s been an MP since 2000 and ran for the leadership in 2008 before dropping out to support Michael Ignatieff — wrote he is “enormously grateful” for those who’ve encouraged him to run.

Justin Trudeau has left Canadians in the lurch after a decade of incompetence. His decision to quit plunges the country into an existential crisis because Parliament won’t sit and an election won’t happen for five or six months. This means Canadians must now endure the spectacle of Trudeau’s inept accomplices — from Chrystia Freeland to Mark Carney, Anita Anand, Dominic LeBlanc and others — jockey for power. This is not only conduct unbecoming a prime minister or a general or a CEO, but a downright dangerous manoeuvre by a self-absorbed “leader.” Who pulls such a stunt?

Justin Trudeau has resigned as the Liberal Party Leader of Canada, paving the way for a new leader to take the battered party into a federal election. The news should come as little surprise after Trudeau’s popularity slumped from 65% in September 2016 to a mere 22% today.

The Canadian PM departs utterly unburdened by the love of his countrymen, the respect of his international counterparts, and the dignity possessed by even moderately competent leaders.

After nearly a decade in power, Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau announced his resignation as leader of the Liberal Party and as prime minister on Monday, triggering a leadership race to select the next prime minister. Year-end polls showed Trudeau’s personal popularity at 22%, with a mere 16% of Canadians indicating that they support the Liberal Party, setting them up for electoral catastrophe. Even the Liberal Party’s worst showing in their 157-year history in 2011 had them receiving 18.9% of the vote.

His government’s actions with respect to abortion, assisted suicide and euthanasia, and the residential-school controversy drew strong criticism from some Canadian Church leaders.

Over his nine-year reign as Canadian prime minister, Justin Trudeau has championed causes that directly contradict fundamental Catholic teachings with respect to human life and undertaken other actions that have harmed the local Church.

His long run of damaging policies appears to be coming to an end, however. With polls showing his Liberal Party facing almost-unsurmountable headwinds in the upcoming election, the Catholic leader announced his resignation as party leader on Monday, leaving a legacy marked by this unmistakable opposition to Catholic teaching and priorities. Most notably, his policies and advocacy for the advancement of abortion and euthanasia rights have made Canada a global leader in the culture of death. Additionally, his role in perpetuating Canada’s “mass graves” narrative, involving unfounded claims that hundreds of Indigenous children had been buried covertly at Catholic residential schools, resulted in a rise in Catholic hate crimes and a spate of church burnings.

In an event that should have occurred months ago, Justin Trudeau has finally resigned and left the Liberal Party with no next steps, unless it is onto a rake.

While many party loyalists and media pundits are quick to proclaim that fresh leadership will revive the party’s fortunes, a closer look reveals disastrous eventualities.

It doesn’t matter who leads the Liberal party, whether it is Justin Trudeau, Chrystia Freeland, Mark Carney, or, for that matter, if it is Ryan Reynolds, or that French-speaking pineapple that still haunts Canadians of a certain age (if you know, you know). Nothing can alter the party’s parasitic nature that has seeped into all walks of Canadian life, poisoning every government, business, media and cultural institution. The only solution is for the party to be torn out of the country, root and branch.

A day that many Canadians have long waited for has finally arrived. The Great White North is getting ready to collectively say “good riddance” to the political disaster known as Justin Trudeau.

Trudeau announced his resignation as leader of the Liberal Party of Canada on Monday. He’ll be staying on as Prime Minister, a role he’s held since Nov. 4, 2015, until his party has chosen a successor. He’s also prorogued Parliament until March 24, giving him a few extra weeks to agonisingly drag out his departure from the political scene.

JTA — Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will step down from his post and from his party leadership amid plummeting poll numbers and dissent from his own deputies, he announced Monday, a decision that comes as his country’s Jewish leaders have harshly criticized him for perceived failures to support Israel and stand against antisemitism.

Trudeau said he will stay on as a caretaker prime minister until his party selects a new leader. Canadian Parliament will be put on a temporary hold until March to give Trudeau’s Liberal Party time to do so via a grassroots vote shortly before then.

Canadians were robbed today of the election we wanted and which Pierre Poilievre had gambled on occurring.

His well-produced and blackly comedic short film, Wacko, released on December 31 and offering a devastating look at the most bizarre and troubling moments of Justin Trudeau’s near-decade reign, was not a guaranteed hit. Nor was the timing of the film’s release a guaranteed strategical win. It was meant to coincide with a long-awaited election. An election that would have required the NDP and Bloc Québécois to support Poilievre in a January non-confidence vote.
