One whose smug, self-satisfied face begs for resistance (or worse) is Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister (and Emperor wannabe) of Canuckistan. Recent polls show that the majority of Canucks -- of every region, race, creed, and gender -- can't stand him! According to the Angust Reid Institute, his approval rating as of October 2023 is a mere 33%, right down there with Demented Joe Biden's.
What is needed, most Canadians say, is an election. Sadly, because the pinko New Democratic Party is pledged to support Trudeau's Liberals come hell or high water, no election need be held until 2025. Unless... unless... enough Members of Parliament can see the handwriting on the wall to support a non-confidence motion in the House of Commons.
That's why Michelle Ferreri, the Conservative MP for Peterborough-Kawartha, is supporting an online petition, e-4701, now on the Commons website, waiting for your signature!
On 30 November, Ms Ferreri wrote on Facebook, "Misery is a powerful motivator and clearly this petition is elevating the voices of Canadians who are sick of the Trudeau-imposed misery and want a leader and a government they can trust."
The petition was originally put forward by Peterborough resident Melissa Outwater, who runs a Facebook page highly critical of Trudeau. Freedom Through Unity Peterborough/Kawartha includes posts from people mistrustful of Covid-19 policies and government in general.
"The policies of this government aren't aligning with the crisis Canada is facing: housing costs, infringement of civil liberties, highest inflation in history, unbalanced immigration policies, taxation to the point of poverty, weakening of our economy by importing natural resources that Canada already has and under-utilizes," the petition states. "Based on the past eight years of this Prime Minister, Canadians do not have confidence in this Prime Minister, after five ethics investigations and Canada’s reputation being tarnished on a global scale under his leadership."
Since it was started on 24 November, the petition has garnered some 175,000 signatures from across the Great No-longer-white North. The Peterborough Examiner reports that Ontario leads the tally with 65,244, followed by Alberta at 44,576 and Nunavut last on the list with 44 signatures.
No matter how many signatures the petition attracts, it is unlikely to succeed, because the MPs of not just the Liberals but all the other parties are so shit-scared of losing their jobs and their pensions in the Tory tsunami that will result from a snap election. All the same, if you're Canadian and you agree with the millions of Canucks who think it's time for Trudeau to go, you should sign the petition! Doing so is your personal act of resistance!
