Trudeau, Don’t Do Us Anymore Favours
Here’s the thing. Even if Prime
Minister could outmanoeuvre Trump on NAFTA I’m betting many Canadians would
agree with me, in telling him thanks but not thanks.
Of course, keeping business as usual
would still benefit many special interest groups and not just from his added
twisted social activist perspective. But, of benefit to many actual socialist
proletariat type establishment special interest groups and all party (not just
liberal) friends.
Unions come to mind first even though
this time he inadvertently threw auto workers under the bus with the Pacific
deal for a) not consulting them because he firmly believes he knows what is
good for all his friends, and b) not actually knowing anything about such
matters and see a)
The heavy handed socialist Dairy
Board of Ontario is also at the forefront comprised totally of guess who… dairy farmers with the full
weight of Province backed prosecution and law making powers within their
exclusive group.
Dairy farmers who were given a free hand to
set the prices and more importantly, the rules for any collusion dairy in the
whole industry on when and how they could squeeze a cow’s teat.
If the gas industry had too much
reserve gas spilling out of their reservoirs would they collude and simply dump
their excess in quotas in the ground to make sure they are all in line with
their guaranteed consistent windfall profits for all?
Have dairy farmers ever been the
starving farmers closing up farms… ever? Though I’m sure they have the farmers feed
cities bumper stickers on their fleets of vehicles and equipment.
Granted they haven’t raised their
lock-set prices in years but only because they have been way too high for those
same number years, certainly by any comparison of locked out markets south of
the border.. even with so called free trade already in place. It’s only original shame going back those
many years. that keeps them from going up again…. or much more likely the
tipping point of drinking and eating dairy substitutes.
Gas companies don’t even collude (as
much as they do) as the locked in dairy industry
Then of course, there is corporate welfare for Bombardier et al and
world prices being charged to Canadians in the lumber and gas industry. If you
can’t screw family who can you screw?
Lumber is higher priced to
‘Canadians’ whether it’s been sold in the States and when it is not…. and with
the free resources granted them by Canadian government and paybacks from
lobbyists.
Let’s not neglect self-imposed
regulations on industry, manufacturing and resources with governments always
managing to run and collect under those chestnut trees …. Enabled by leftist ideologies transformed
into science fiction… yet another especial interest group.
So how about the Canadian tax paying
citizen and consumer get a break for once!
So what some corporations, industries
and unions get spanked along the way, the shameless ones who curry and bribe
their way with law making political parties with promises, hard cash and votes.
We should care as much as unions, corporations, governments and social special
interest groups care about us.. nada. If it ‘benefits’ a whole nation… (rare)…
fine, but they never come close.
If Joe citizen saves money (on
mostly) staples and necessities and has extra money in his pocket to spend on,
and with, the largest societal
contributor and job provider….. small businesses, including small retailers and
large retailers for that matter.
This would certainly be a better shot at a self perpetuating economy than all
government workers as liberals would have it … and for many reasons …. mostly
intentionally nefarious.
Is there no one left in Canada who
doesn’t let the likes of Trudeau and any political party and media outlet do
our thinking for us and ram what’s best for us and best for small but powerful
populist special interest groups?
Prime Minister Pussy just wants to turn Canada into Scarborough Fair
