Every time the Bytown Buffoon blesses us with his wisdom, he demonstrates how out of touch he is with reality. Surely his handlers must be wondering about his deterioration. Then again, perhaps those who have ambitions to replace him are encouraging his public displays of ignorance.

Given that it's his handlers dumping the poison in his ear (there isn't much in that head to begin with), it's very much a team effort. Particularly on the part of one Mrs.Telford. https://x.com/kinsellawarren/status/1866837808976998816

I'm hearing we lose Freeland as early as next Friday's news dump. Those who aren't being lined up to be sho* are very much being positioned as replacements.

If that departure materializes and she holds a press conference, I want to see her signature head nod when someone notes that her departure was long overdue.

Then again, perhaps those who have ambitions to replace him are encouraging their own public displays of ignorance. It's ingrained Trudeau-esque willful ignorance at best, and erstwhile servile stupidity at worst.

It's very much ingrained (and insulated) at this point. Talk to their staffers and hear from folks on the Hill, and they know they're being wallpapered but they think the response is often to Do More, not less. It's a fundamental disconnect. Those who are left clearly lack the character and the wherewithal to break the cycle.

Biden has only a few weeks left and he’s already turned a failing state (Syria) into a failed one (aka Libya). What will an angry woke man child do to our country that he/him/idiot/moron feels has spurned his benighted leadership? Pray for us.

I share similar worries. Trudeau's woke beliefs have always been vindictive. He belongs to a white tent revival cult that refuses to offer forgiveness and atonement. He'll seek to punish even further down the stretch.

This post is perfection, Alex, however unfortunate its occasion.

Very much appreciated, Alex, but this is about you. Best line--better even than the (ahem) smart car metaphor: "So, like a woman speaking to a self-proclaimed male feminist, steady your resolve, turn on that bullshit detector, and don’t trust a single silver-tongued word."

You have read the tea leaves correctly, Alex. However, I think Canadians are fully done with the Trudeau Lieberals's machinations. He can shower Canadians with Arctic Pesos aplenty, but it won't matter.

Here in the great white (yup another blizzard starting today) mid-western Ontario, the Lieberal's support is almost non-existent. I would hazard a guess at well south of 20%.

Cheers.

Peter, that's terrific news as to your local polling demographics. As for the weather...

Not to rub it in, and I'm sure I'll regret this on the 30th straight day of rain in January, but it has yet to drop below 7 here, and the grass has never been greener.

I believe we're (largely) fully done with him, but good to stay on guard for late monkey business (unelected advisory councils, unelected Mark Carneys...), further free speech and property grabs, etc.
