Memo To Trudeau

Canada’s not for sale

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government is so weak that it now has to rely on appeasing Canada’s separatist party — the Bloc Quebecois — to survive.

This is such a bad situation that normally we would hope even Trudeau’s Liberal MPs in Ottawa would be making it clear to the PM that Canada is not for sale to the highest bidder, especially a bidder whose goal is to have Quebec separate from Canada.

But the Liberals are so obsessed with their own political survival these days, that we fear they will sacrifice the best interests of Canada, in order to avoid an immediate election which, according to numerous opinion polls, they would lose — massively — to Pierre Poilievre and the Conservatives.

This sorry state of affairs arises because, now that NDP leader Jagmeet Singh has abandoned his deal with the Liberals which would have postponed a federal election until next fall, the control of the Trudeau government’s fate is in the hands of BQ leader Yves-Francois Blanchet and his separatist party.

That’s because in order for a non-confidence motion by the Conservatives to be voted on in Parliament next week to succeed — thus bringing down the Trudeau government leading to an immediate election — both the BQ and NDP would have to vote in favour of it.
