In November we had gas at about $1.78/gallon. Filled up today, $2.30/gallon. That’s 50 cents a gallon increase since the November 3rd election steal.
Canadian perspective on this — Justin Trudeau has taken a rather weak public stand in favor of two pipelines (Keystone and another one from Alberta to coastal BC) that the left in Canada vigorously oppose. His game here is to hold on to the small amount of support his party has in (a) western Canada and (b) the Canadian business community.
Most of us suspect that Justin Trudeau is personally opposed to these pipelines like two-thirds of his party caucus in parliament are probably opposed, but they pose as supporters knowing that other forces will cancel the projects making it appear to a few chumps that they tried, what the heck? but couldn’t quite see them through. How that’s supposed to get them any votes, I don’t know.
But nobody in the Trudeau cabinet or circle of advisors would have been even slightly surprised by Biden’s first day announcement. In fact, they were probably tipped off weeks ago.
The public statements are what you might call kabouki theater. We live in an age of lies and deceptions. There are very few honest or truth-seeking people active in politics today, it’s the same class of people as we see in the MSM.
Now that Trump’s inactive (for however long) I guess the baton falls to Cruz and Hawley and Jordan, and a few others. May God strengthen their resolve and keep them from harm. We have even fewer active in Canada. There isn’t even one person I could name of even the middle-ranking stature of Ted Cruz who I would trust in Canadian politics or media.
We are what you would become, if you don’t take stronger action than we were able to take. I have faith in you to do better than Canadians did. There must be millions of people with the right intentions in your country, in Canada, it is closer to hundreds, maybe dozens. I think I know about half of them personally.
And it’s going to get far worse.
