The silver fox is inside the hen house.
Can you believe it?
37 days ago, a central banker with a history of adding more than $1 trillion to the Canadian and British public debts stepped into the sweaty shoes of widely-loathed Justin Trudeau and somehow managed to win himself four years of looting the most resource-rich nation per capita on earth.
What a coup!
What… happened?
Let’s look at some of the highlights…
The Conservative talking point “Ax the tax” didn’t resonate
Alberta once again proved it’s in a bubble filled with fossil fuel gas.
Pierre Poilievre’s biggest campaign pledge for years has been a promise to kill the carbon tax.
This is a big deal for the fossil fuel industry, but it was clearly irrelevant to millions of Canadians.
Plus, it was only a measly $8 billion in tax savings… for fossil fuel companies.
Canadians, to their credit, did the math and realized that they’d rather “save the planet” than give centa-billion-dollar American oil giants a few more pennies.
Canadians are a “conservative” (liberal) bunch
People forget how scared and weak Canadians are.
The country is “naturally” Liberal, and in the face of huge uncertainty — a tariff war with Trump if not an invasion to become the 51st state — they still sided with the party that destroyed the economy and created the biggest housing crisis on earth.
After all, Carney did a better job of pretending like he can stand up to the U.S., defending Canada’s only true national identity: “We’re not Americans.”
NDP finally gets a shakeup
Jagmeet Singh was never the right man to lead the New Democrat Party.
It also doesn’t help that the so-called “progressive” has a wife who’s a landlord…
He’s finally announced his retirement, giving the NDP time to recover from the thumping it just took for backing Trudeau’s decade of insanity.
Canada belongs to the NDP
Mark Carney’s Liberals are just a handful of seats short of a majority, meaning they cannot pass a single bill over the next four years without the support of the NDP’s seven measly seats.
This is an incredible time to be the new leader of the NDP, because you hold all the cards.
Will Pierre Poilievre retire?
Don’t count on it.
The man is a career politician who’s taken more than $4 million in taxpayer paychecks/paycheques over his decades in Parliament.
His life goal since childhood has been to become Prime Minister.
And he has a decent argument for staying on.
After all, he won his party 145 seats, up 119 seats from the previous election.
That’s trajectory in the right direction.
And their 41+% vote share is the highest the Cons have received in nearly 30 years.
That said… he didn’t even keep his hotly-contested longtime Ottawa riding of Carleton, which is not a great look.
That said… minority governments don’t tend to last long, and when the silver fox Carney falls, the black wolf Poilievre will be ready.
The Longest Ballot Protest is hilarious
Part of the reason Pierre Poilievre lost is that there were so many other options in his riding.
Nearly 80, in fact.
That’s all thanks to a protest group called The Longest Ballot, which encourages as many people as possible to run for office in order to raise awareness in favor of elector reform.
Evidently it worked, watering down Poilievre’s vote total (and confusing the heck out of many, no doubt.)

Canada is in real trouble
Canadians are already forced to pay more than $60 billion per year in interest thanks to corporatist politicians loading the nation with public debt, but central bankster Mark Carney is guaranteed to put that into overdrive.
In fact, budget deficits were a promise in his campaign speech.
Bookmark it now: This man will add a MINIMUM of $250 billion to the taxpayer debt load.
Meaning Canadians will be $7+ billion poorer per year forever.
Taxes? Up.
Services? Down.
House prices? Up.
Rent? Way up.
Public asset selloffs? Happening.
Inflation? Guaranteed.
Four years from now, Canadians will be materially more miserable. It’s just math.
Mark Carney is going to get filthy rich
Billionaire at minimum.
Remember, Carney is, at his core, an Americanized globalist parasite investor.
Except all his proposals — like making Canadians live in modular homes, because he owns the biggest modular home business in the country — to line his personal pockets until the burst at the seems.
Except energy prices to go through the roof, too, as he “invests” your money into renewable projects owned by his asset management company.
Canadians had no meaningful choice at the ballot box
Their options were the corporatist (plus oil!) Cons, the corportist (plus rainbow flags!) liberals, the corporatist (not Liberal!) NDP, or the corporatist (and seperatist) Bloc.
Where was the party calling for a ban on interest?
Where was the party calling for a ban on for-profit land-lording?
Where was the party calling for the end of income tax and sales tax and all the other predatory taxes, to be replaced with a Georgist land value tax?
Where was the party promising to free up a few million of Canada’s 2.2+ billion acres of crown land to build a hundred new cities and five million new homes?
Where was the party guaranteeing land rights for all Canadians?
Where was the party promising to end the ability of banks to create money out of thin air and debase the $CAD to dust?
These are the big wins that would actually help Canadians, and not a single one of these things were discussed by any of the parties in this election.
The corporatocracy won
Billionaire corporate shareholder WEF elites were the real winner tonight.
Green? Basically gone.
NDP? Smashed to smithereens.
Liberal? Now a right-wing corporatist party run by a hedge fund manager.
The progressive movement in Canada just got murdered by the corporatocracy.
Psalm 146:3 is slaps
Whenever I see people in elation or hysterics after their favored election candidate wins or loses, I always remind them of this wonderful Bible verse:
“Do not put your trust in princes,
in human beings,
in whom there is no salvation.”
This too shall pass.
