From the lower 48 of the USA it appears that both Poilievre and Carney are one and the same. Yes of course they tout their political differences and the “conservatives” sound conservative and the “Liberals” sound liberal, but neither truly want change. (We have the same problem here, what’s the real difference between the Republicans and Democrats here? Not much.) Greedy money grubbers grifting for millions. What has been interesting to watch is both Polievre and Carney want to pick a fight with Trump. What a match up. Two midwits, one smart and evil enough to rob globally for a personal fortune, the other good at being a wise guy eating an apple, taking on a guy who doesn’t care, what they and or anyone else thinks. Trump has his path and he is headed there, whether the wizened up old baby boomers of the Pepsi generation like it not down here. Trump is rolling his way. But a 25% tariff on US goods into Canada is called a tax on the Canadian people. Canada can’t afford it. 350 millions verse 40 million, who wins that fight. It’s a choice of lesser evils and Carney is clearly plain evil so you have to go with the apple eater. We can only hope our neighbors to the north can start with a door jam called Poilievre and then slowly march back to a bright and robust Canada, the one this writer knew so well as little boy. Good luck in the coming election. Watch Alberta, if it goes badly they and Quebec may have something in common after all, the drums beat the to the rhythms of a separatist cadence.
