Why Trudeau Keeps on Winning: His victories matter because reading about the winning formula in Canada is a prophecy about what to expect in the U.S. in the coming years
American Thinker ^ | 12/12/2022 | Geoffrey Clarfield

During the last three years, the Canadian government has been printing lots of money and hiring lots of employees. The number of government hires has been more than those in the private sector. We also now have illegal Chinese police stations in our major cities and the hint (God forbid!) that the Chinese Communist Party was interfering in our last national election. I am shocked!

Canada also had a week of martial law against truckers’ COVID protests. Then, during drawn-out hearings, it would appear that, from the Prime Minister down, no one in the higher echelons of government knew what was happening on the ground or who ordered what. Watching the investigation is like watching a modern version of Keystone Cops.

Only Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland suggested that martial law was declared because of American pressure. Those readers familiar with Canadian history will recognize that “Blame the Americans” is the oldest kind of scapegoating on record in this country but, of course, we still turn to America whenever the nation is really in trouble.

Even though the Conservative Party gained seats during the last election, Trudeau only managed to get a parliamentary majority by allying himself with the far-left New Democratic Party. With this weak coalition, one wonders whether, after another cold, expensive winter, the Liberals (and Trudeau) will lose an election that may be set in motion this spring? The answer is probably not. They may still win. I will try and explain how.

I have spent a lifetime as an anthropologist. Before the nihilistic left took over the field, anthropologists studied tribes and ethnic groups in developing countries and here, in the West.

Once multiculturalism became king in Canada, the winning political party is the one that knows how to play the “ethnic card.” Forgot about a common historical narrative, forget about the ordered liberty of Edmund Burke that was once the political and legal heritage of English Canada. Forget about the individualism and personal freedom that brings people to our shores. Instead, a political party that caters to ethnic groups wins elections. The Liberal Party of Canada must have some good anthropologists advising them for that is what they have been doing for decades.

He keeps on ‘winning’ because, unlike USA elections, the Canadian Federal and local, Provincial and city elections are all controlled by Ottawa, even the printing of ballots......Same as the Liberals want to do here..................

I like to think we will never surrender our individual liberty and religious faith to a faux- benevolent totalitarian collective represented by arrogant elites like Justin Trudeau

The Liberal Party of Canada a thoroughly corrupt institution a pay to play party in bed with large business interests.

The Liberals turn around and use all that leftist rhetoric about indigenous peoples, LGBTQ rights and the list goes on to distract from its cronyism with rich and powerful business interests.

Looks like Canada has arrived in the United States and the prophecy is too late.

Well, that’s small compared to what Uncle Sam wastes.

Take heart, y’all. Canada does not have Southerners. We do.

And we Southerners are a stubborn lot. ;)

Their elections are more honest than ours.

The Liberals usually win because the Maritimes are dependent on Ottawa for money, Ontario runs everything, Quebec negotiates with the Liberals for the best deal, and British Columbia splits its vote. The Conservatives do well in the Prairie Provinces, but they have trouble in other parts of the country.

In a way the US has circled back to FDR’s America. In his day, the South and the West and the cities were all dependent on Washington for money (and for water in the West), and that gave the Democrats a winning coalition. Democrat dominance broke up in the 80s and 90s when the South and West came into their own and didn’t depend on DC for funding, but now there are people in every state who want money from Washington, and they’re able to win in more and more states.

We see a lot of Canadians here in Florida this time of year.

Obviously the wealthy ones.

Most license plates are from Quebec. Very few from any other province. .................

Why Trudeau Keeps on Winning

Because, like here in the States, people are stupid, they never learn, they don't care and just keep voting for losers.

Just conjecture, but I’d met the big, metropolitan areas dominate national politics just like they do here. IF that’s the case, then Left-leaning urban voters cement victories for Trudeau just like they do Biden.
