Canadians have a new variation of the Where’s Waldo? game. It’s Where’s Justin Trudeau?
Trudeau, not Waldo, is the Canadian Prime Minister running from public backlash over his tin-pot dictator response to COVID. First Trudeau said he’d be disappearing over some exposure to COVID, even though he’s vaccinated.
It was just a coincidence that his self-imposed move into quarantine hiding came as a massive truck convoy of protestors moved on Ottawa. Now that the convoy has arrived, reports indicate Trudeau and his family are hiding out in a secret location due to safety concerns – not from a virus, but from the public.
Yet media in Canada (Ottawa Citizen) reported no violence, no injuries, after the first day of the protest.
This attempted demonization of opposition is a familiar tactic among the elites. Remember Obama snidely labeling opponents as those clinging to guns and religion, both of which still are guaranteed rights in our Constitution.
Then there was Hillary Clinton’s “deplorables” characterization of Trump supporters. Takes a deplorable to know one.
Trudeau, when he still dared to show his face in public, called the truck convoy a “fringe minority” with “unacceptable views.”
Once the convoy reached a length of 46 miles or so, with a reported 50,000 participants, Trudeau went radio silent.
It’s not the just the truckers in the convoy, it’s the thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands, or millions of Canadians who agree that Trudeau’s heavy-handed vaccine mandates are not acceptable.
The internet is full of images of supporters lined up along highways and on overpasses, saluting the convoy as it passed.
There’s a message in this for demagogues like Trudeau and his counterparts here and around the world – you don’t have the public support you imagined.
Bumbling Joe Biden’s rapidly declining approval ratings indicate his slide is very real, in part due to his ridiculously ineffective COVID policy.
Protests in European countries and Australia indicate the public is fed up with isolation and fear over COVID.
In Canada, they dipped into the Clinton/Biden playbook of blaming Russia. The convoy supposedly was a Russian operation using convenient idiots among the Canadian population.
It was a racist, right-wing, domestic terrorist (where have we heard that broad accusation before?) plan to sack the government.
Amusingly, one image that I saw posted had two turban-wearing, bearded men (Sikhs?) with signs proclaiming Trudeau as the fascist.
No doubt they were white supremacists or Russians in costume. Or not.
In the end, whether it’s COVID, or some other stalking horse argument, the goal of the elites is control of your lives.
Be prepared, now that COVID has lost its effectiveness as fear porn used to demand concessions in individual rights, to have another crusade pop to the forefront. Various media reports indicate the elites are going back to climate change.
Because most enlightened people have come to realize COVID is not a death sentence for all, the hunt is on for another issue that can be used to terrify the masses into submission.
It is sadly fitting that one poster child for climate change hysteria is a young woman with mental issues, being used cynically by the elites to advance their agenda.
Remember when it used to be “global warming” with the massaged statistics allegedly proving it? Then, when the statistical chicanery was outed, it became “climate change.”
This way, no matter what happens – unseasonable cold, unseasonable warmth, drought, floods, storms – it all could be used to support the argument.
This ignores the fact that climate is, by definition, fluid and constantly changing, that our reliable measures are not really that old when compared with the age of the planet, and that alarmists have flip-flopped on dire warnings within my lifetime.
When I was in high school, the predictions were for a new ice age in the 1970s. Never happened.
To repeat, the elites are equal opportunity when it comes to creating and using issues in order to gain submission from the masses.
Don’t fall for their tricks.
And say hi to Trudeau should he emerge from his burrow any time soon, a la Punxsutawney Phil.
