Disaster for our economy

Disaster for our economy

Dear Editor,

My dream of a former Prime Minister Trudeau was a little premature. His fake resignation and prorogation of Parliament have allowed him a couple more months in office and further opportunity to destroy our once great country.

Few people realize that Mr. Trudeau and the Liberal Party of Canada are systematically destroying Canada. It sounds absurd, but I believe it is true.

I once thought they were just making stupid decisions. But those decisions are only stupid if you want a prosperous Canada. And these are not stupid people. So, if they are not stupid, and they keep making harmful decisions, they are malicious. They want to destroy the country that we and our forebears have laboured so hard to build.

Take, for example, Mr. Trump’s threat of a 25 per cent tariff. The tariffs are conditional on stopping the flow of criminals and drugs across our mutual border. I don’t know about you, but I happen to think a secure border is a good idea. Not only will it help to protect our closest neighbour and largest trading partner, but it will protect us as well.

Yet Mr. Trudeau, the Liberal Party of Canada, and nine out of 10 premiers, think it is better to start a trade war with the United States than it is to secure our border. I think this is stupid. They think this is a good idea. But what can Canadians expect from a trade war with the US? Obviously, it will be a disaster for our economy, for all of us, and for all our children.

This is either stupid or malicious. Rather than secure our border to stop the flow of drugs and criminals, our political “leaders” have decided to protect this criminal activity. And our news media are cheering them on.
Kudos to Premier Danielle Smith for having the backbone to stand up for Canada by opposing this suicidal madness.
