Thank you Alex for so eloquently writing what I have been trying to compute in my head. I still have no words so I shouldn’t even try. Perhaps just to quote Bambi’s mother… “If you can’t say anything nice - don’t say nothing at all”. Grrrr

More fear mongering and group think seem to have won the day (“we’re all in this together” elbows up etc.) . Brilliant play by the Libs… and I hope my creepy sense that Trump intentionally timed his threats are just my paranoia…. However, I truly do believe Canada is starting to get its wits about it. The younger generations coming up are starting to listen to what we’re trying to tell them and are engaging. I have three sons spanning 30 to 20 years old and they are clued in… keep the momentum folks.

Well said Alex. The incredible changes in fortune for both the federal Conservative Party and its leader during the past three months have been hard to digest for anyone who lives their life practicing common sense. The anti-U.S. rhetoric employed by the libs during the election was as sophomoric as it was ignorant. Canada has always been, and will continue to be, dependent upon the world’s largest economy - despite the ambitions of delusional leftists. It will be interesting to see how our elitist mandarin is able to negotiate with a guy who cut his teeth in the Manhattan real estate arena dealing with shrewd competitors, less than cooperative civil servants, unions and the mafia.
