I’m Canadian. I vote in Canada. I don’t get a ballot in the U.S.

Whether you love Trump or hate him is irrelevant to this point: our economic problems existed long before tariffs. That should be the only thing dominating headlines.

Housing didn’t collapse because of Trump. Productivity didn’t stall because of Trump. Per-capita GDP didn’t weaken because of Trump. Capital wasn’t initially fleeing because of Trump. Justin Trudeau didn’t step down over tariffs—he stepped down because Canadians no longer believed he could fix what was already broken. Tariffs didn’t create our vulnerabilities… they highlighted policy failure that was previously masked.

If one trade shock rattles your economy, the structure was already fragile.

So why are we gossiping about Trump’s personality instead of dissecting our own numbers? Why are we speculating about American politics instead of talking about Canada’s declining productivity, stalled investment, rising debt, and capital flight?

75%-85% of our exports are covered under USMCA. Yet tariffs are still the convenient villain—because it’s easier to blame an American president than to reform tax policy, reduce regulatory drag, attract investment, and grow productivity.

Talking about Trump every day doesn’t fix Canada. But reading our own economic data just might. Canada doesn’t need an American scapegoat… It needs structural reform. And until we address taxation, regulation, capital formation, and productivity, we’ll keep treating symptoms with rebates and headlines while the underlying problem gets worse.

It’s been a year.

At this point, obsessing over Trump isn’t analysis… It’s continuing to avoid and hold the government accountable.

This isn’t just about Canada’s prime minister anymore. Look at Davos. Look at the chorus of global elites, bureaucrats, billionaires, and unelected power-brokers lining up to take swings at Donald Trump. When that many “important” people all agree on one thing, you should immediately ask yourself why.

Trump isn’t being attacked because he’s reckless or crude. He’s being attacked because he refuses to kneel. He stands in direct opposition to the so-called “New World Order” that’s been quietly built for decades—one that centralizes power, erodes national sovereignty, weakens borders, and reduces citizens to managed subjects. Davos isn’t about cooperation; it’s about control. And Trump is a problem because he disrupts that plan.

They know the truth: to dominate the West, they must first break the United States. The U.S. is the last major obstacle—a nation still armed with free speech, constitutional protections, and a deeply ingrained resistance to top-down rule. That’s why America is constantly under attack, culturally, economically, and politically. That’s why Trump is treated as an existential threat rather than just another politician.

You don’t have to like him. You don’t have to agree with everything he says or does. But you cannot deny what he represents: resistance. The U.S. remains the freest nation on Earth, and if it falls, the rest of us don’t stand a chance. Look around—France, Belgium, the UK, Venezuela—once-free societies hollowed out by elite arrogance and centralized power, all told it was for their own good.

Trump will be gone one day. That’s inevitable. But what must endure is the United States as a free, sovereign nation. If America falls, the dominoes will follow—and there will be no one left to push back. This is bigger than one man. This is about whether freedom itself still has a defender.

Mark Carney TAXES working Canadians…
While his company dodges $6.5 BILLION in taxes.

Tells youth to SACRIFICE more.
Then hides his cash in offshore havens.

The definition of HIGH-TAX HYPOCRISY.

[wealthmoose @wealthmoose]

Carney says we must “prepare for sacrifices.”
Meanwhile, here’s where 🇨🇦 tax dollars are going abroad under “Global Affairs”:

🇹🇳 African Development Bank (Tunis) — $118,400,000
🇵🇭 Asian Development Bank (Manila) — $30,136,466
🇧🇧 Caribbean Development Bank (Barbados) — $20,352,750

🇨🇭 UN (Geneva) — $3,450,000
🇨🇭 UN Biodiversity — $1,569,171
🇸🇬 APEC (Singapore) — $691,975
🇰🇪 Basel Convention (Nairobi) — $208,281
🇵🇰 Balochistan Rural Support (Quetta) — $100,000

When your own PM’s investment portfolio disclosure reveals that over 95% are in the USA - wife lives in the USA -children go to school in the USA -wife works for a USA company that “surprisingly” received Government contracts -why invest in Canada ??

[Rhonda Kirkland @rhondaforoshawa]

Unbelievable.

Millions of Canadians can’t get a family doctor, spend days in the ER and can’t get timely MRIs or surgeries.

Now we have a federal government department tweeting an invitation to the world to come get ‘free stuff’ in Canada?

[govt.exe is corrupt @govt_corrupt]

I'm so sick of Canadians blaming Trump for everything! Trump never shut down Canadian businesses, and banned people from the economy during Covid.

He never hiked my taxes or froze my bank account, He's not passing speech censorship laws or taking away firearms.

Trump never flooded Canada with 3rd world immigrants and provided them with tax dollars. Trump didn't crush our economy, our govts have been doing that for YEARS.

Our own govts have done far more damage than Trump ever could. All our wounds are self inflicted.

[Dr. Leslyn Lewis @LeslynLewis]

If Liberal Bill C-8 were truly about security and privacy, you would expect the government to consult its own Privacy Commissioner. Yet, the Commissioner’s office was never even contacted about the legislation.

Once again, the Liberals have shown that their priority isn’t protecting Canadians’ security—it’s centralizing power in the government and Minister’s office.

An important video by John Carpay:

“Canada will be a police state by Christmas if Parliament passes bills C-2, C-8, and C-9 in their current form. Our freedoms are fragile – it is imperative that every Canadian contact their Member of Parliament, whether your MP is Liberal, Conservative, NDP, Bloc or Green.”

[The Vigilant Fox 🦊 @VigilantFox]

REPORT: Canada just crossed a line that should terrify every free nation. A new bill would let the government instantly cut off your internet, phone, and even your online banking—simply for saying the “wrong thing.”

If passed, Canada’s Industry Minister could declare your words a “threat” and erase your digital existence without warning. No court order. No appeal. And the most chilling part? It can all be done in secret—you wouldn’t even be allowed to say it happened.

This is the Digital ID agenda in motion. The World Economic Forum admits “digital identity” will decide who gets to participate in society. Canada is the testing ground. The U.S. is next, with Real ID already laying the foundation.

Senator Rand Paul is fighting to stop it before this technocratic nightmare spreads south. Because once speech is tied to access, freedom itself disappears.

The clock is ticking—@zeeemedia reveals how close we are to a digital gulag.

BREAKING: The Toronto Police Association issues a DAMNING statement CONDEMNING Mark Carney and the Liberals for voting against the "Jail Not Bail Act". 👇

[Jinglai He 🇨🇦 @JinglaiHe]

BREAKING: Mark Carney's entire Liberal caucus just voted AGAINST the Conservatives "Jail Not Bail Act", which would have kept repeat violent criminals in jail and denied them bail.

Absolutely shameful.

[Concerned Citizen @BGatesIsaPyscho]

🇨🇳 In China Citizens are required to scan their Digital ID wherever they go

Didn’t take the latest Vaccine?
- Access Denied ❌

AI Facial recognition spotted you without mask?
- Access Denied ❌

Said something online which was Anti-Government?
- Access Denied ❌

This is the exact model the Globalists desire for The West - once Digital ID is established - the State will be able to control your every movement & every purchase and stop you from having Thoughts in your head they don’t wish you to be thinking. Resist.

Canada is sitting on the BIGGEST economic opportunity in our history.

$600B investment
$1.2T GDP boost

Enbridge CEO says it CLEAR: LIBERALS are blocking it with their anti-energy agenda.

Canadians are struggling by DESIGN.

Every Canadian needs to know what’s in Bill C-8! This is scary.

[Marc Nixon @MarcNixon24]

Bill C-8 is Carney’s digital Emergencies Act

After illegally freezing bank accounts, now they want vague language to criminalize dissent

This is how free speech dies—under the cover of “cybersecurity.”

Watch this EXPLOSIVE clip from the House of Commons

[Dr. Leslyn Lewis @LeslynLewis]

Bill C-9 isn’t about fighting hate - it’s about giving Ottawa more power to silence our voices.

Existing law already criminalizes genocide, hate propaganda, symbols, and vandalism (Sections 318, 319, 423, 430).

C-9 removes Attorney General oversight, replaces objective “hatred” with a vague emotional test, and risks criminalizing dissent. This isn’t protection — it’s politicized power.

Canadians need real protection — NOT laws that weaponize free speech. #cdnpoli

Former UK PM Liz Truss warns NOT to back Mark Carney. She says under his tenure, too much money was printed, he made major mistakes & pushed disastrous Net Zero polices causing the UK to head for bankruptcy.
