Letter to the editor: Liberal-NDP coalition has Canada on its knees

BROUGHT CANADA TO ITS KNEES

Article content

Canada has been blessed to be one of the richest countries in the world, with its natural resources and industrious people. It has been decimated and destroyed by a greedy basic dictator.

The river of taxpayers’ money has been flowing at an unprecedented rate and we see no accountability or data as to where it has been spent. This craziness is not sustainable and will break our country. The river of money will dry out eventually and you will not like what our country will look like when it happens.

It’s unbelievable how 30 per cent of the voters and a Liberal/NDP partnership could bring Canada to its knees while many in the mainstream media support our tyrannical prime minister.

I can only hope that our country can rise out of this abyss after Justin Trudeau loses the election.

A SAD POLITICAL JOKE

Re: $200 billion spent on ‘climate action’ — for what? Editorial, Feb. 6

What a sad joke the federal Liberals are. Canada produces a minuscule 1.6 per cent of the world’s greenhouse gases, yet they choose to devastate our economy for some kind of unrealistic, idiotic “green dream.”

We can’t get rid of our “esteemed” prime minister soon enough. Federal Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has promised to get rid of the carbon tax when he is elected. When this happens, I hope the lapdog NDP pays in seat numbers for its support of the inept Liberals.

GIVING AND RECEIVING

So Justin Trudeau has raised eyebrows yet again, this time for accepting a gift of a week of accommodations at a Jamaican villa, worth $80,000.

Interim ethics commissioner Konrad von Finckenstein told a House of Commons ethics committee: “What we have here is clearly a generous gift, but it’s between people who are friends, and I don’t see why, just because they’re well off, they can’t exchange gifts, and that’s what they’re doing here.”

But isn’t that the crux of the problem? Trudeau received the expensive lodging, but what did Trudeau give in exchange?
