More on why Mark Carney would be a disaster for Canada

By William Corden

Remember , Canadian voters.

You are not voting for a new regime, you are voting for the  figurehead of an entrenched Liberal administrative system that has reduced the wealth of  the second largest country on earth to survival mode.

It’s a system that’s embedded in every level of Government.

It takes a special level of ineptitude to bring a rich country to the point where its everyday citizens have no hope of buying a decent home or struggle to maintain a modest lifestyle.

All at the altar of woke policies.

We, as a country, don’t do anything anymore, we’re too scared of offending the 3% that make up our special interest groups.

Let’s look at a few examples of incompetence or sloth or corruption. (Although to be fair, we don’t have a culture of large scale corruption.)

The shipbuilding industry for  example.

Here we are with an abundance of natural harbours, engineering expertise and a storied maritime history and yet we don’t have any of the international shipbuilding market.

Look at the cruise ships that have been built over the past decades. Did we even get one of them?

No, even though we have shipyards sitting here waiting. All we do in the meantime  is let the cruise ships tie up at our tourist docks

Our own publicly owned Ferry corporation has its new ships built in Europe, when we’re perfectly capable of building them here (we built the superferries!) It’s a Provincial responsibility but the Federal Government controls the funding.

For our military we’ve purchased used submarines on which we’ve spent billions of dollars in repair (and still they’re out of date.)

On the energy front we have fabulous amounts of oil and gas , enough to be self sufficient and export the surplus. It’s all either locked in the ground or it’s taxed on Canadians to the point where overseas buyers get it cheaper than we do.

Overseas buyers don’t pay green taxes like we are forced to do, and when they burn it the greenhouse gases get blown back our way

Carney, who was one of the architects and advocates of the ridiculous carbon tax, has now changed tack and tells us that he’s in favour of releasing our energy but you can bet your life that it won’t make the cost of living any cheaper for resident Canadians.

We need a wholesale gutting of the senior levels of Public Service and their “expert” advisors … Don’t get taken in again by these impractical dreamers.
