I 100% agree, time to deal with tariffs. Irresponsible not to.
Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has made such a thorough mess of Canada that Joe Rogan recently warned about Trudeau leading Canada to “communism,” using expletives to describe the Liberal leader. At the start of the new year, Trudeau announced his intention to step down, to the relief of countless Canadians, but in a final blow to the country, he prorogued Parliament until March, meaning that parliament is in a recess until then.
Considering the deplorable state of Canada’s economy and anxieties over Trump’s threat of tariffs, Trudeau couldn’t have chosen a worse time to intentionally cripple parliament in order to save his Liberal party.
A Telegraph headline from mid-December is proving to have been correct: Donald Trump may just have toppled Justin Trudeau’s government. Yet to avoid losing power, Trudeau and his Liberals are now trying to convince Canadians to trust the Liberal party by distancing themselves from Trudeau and picking a new leader.
These are the likely scenarios:
Canada is indeed in a deep crisis. It is crippled without a functioning parliament as it faces Trump’s tariffs. The Liberals have created this crisis: rather than risk its own government falling and allow the people of Canada to choose a new leader and new governing party to govern, have chosen instead to further risk Canada’s wellbeing and drive the nation over the precipice.
Trudeau’s latest strategy is to try to placate Trump:
The best Canada can do now is accept full responsibility for the immigration mess that Trudeau has made, which Trump is trying to fix on his side, protecting American interests from the threat from the northern border. But Canada can only begin to adequately negotiate with the new US administration, and fix its immigration woes, once it has a functioning government. It does not.
The best outcome would be for the sensible opposition leader Pierre Poilievre and the premier of Alberta, Danielle Smith, to win Trump’s good graces, and to overshadow the embarrassing blowhards with whom Canada is now contending. The latter are throwing kerosene on the fire by picking a fight with Trump, putting their fragile egos over Canadian interests. Trump has just stated that “the US does not need Canadian energy, vehicles or lumber as he spoke to global business leaders at the World Economic Forum.”
A start would be for Trudeau to reopen parliament now, but don’t hold your breath.

These are the likely scenarios:
- That Trudeau will honor the request of the official opposition and resume parliament.
- That in March, a no-confidence motion will be presented, thus triggering an election, with the Liberals hoping to retain the majority under a new leader. They maintain this hope even though Canadians know that it was the Liberal party that supported Trudeau’s policies, which brought Canada to economic ruin. Opposition parties have already stated that they will present a no-confidence motion once parliament resumes in March.

Ironic words from a failed leader who stated his admiration for China two years prior to becoming leader. He said:
When Trudeau became prime minister, his respect for China began to play out in policy. Canadian relations with China had already been cemented by Justin Trudeau’s father, Pierre Trudeau, who played a key role in the normalization of China in the international community, as the New York Times reported in 1973 HERE.
