We live in fascinating and fast moving times. It has been just six weeks since Donald Trump became president of the U.S. for the second time, in an equally rapid and colourful decade. During that same period here in Canada we have witnessed the nation transformed from sleepy beige giant, into a multi-coloured ‘post national’ woke utopia under the highly divisive and inevitably authoritarian rule of Justin Trudeau.

The two parties could not be further apart.

My assessment continues to be that Trudeau is a globalist errand boy who has been instructed to collapse the nation state he was elected to serve via a combination of engineered mass immigration; climate goals & inflationary policies. Whilst Trump, having inherited everything I describe from an equally reckless Biden administration, is clearly intent on addressing these issues and making ‘America great again’ as he puts it.

In this respect Trump is a classic nationalist – he believes in America First, and has promised to do everything in his power to steer the nation away from default and ruin by assessing all liabilities; securing the borders, and bringing manufacturing & investment back to America. We haven’t really seen this kind of Nationalism since the mid 20^th Century, and for many younger people, it may be the first time, as all they have only ever known is Globalist governments of one shade or another. 

However, no one involved in the current trade dispute between Canada and the U.S. is being either transparent or honest about the situation.

Protectionist Canada

Ever wondered why we only have two telecom providers in Canada, or two airlines, one provincial auto insurance provider, or why everything is essentially monopolized or nationalized?

It’s because we live in a socialist hermit kingdom where foreign competition is kept out via prohibitive tariffs and legislation.

Ever wonder why cheese & butter is so expensive in Canada?

It’s because a dairy cartel co-opts the government into protecting Canadian farmers by charging tariffs on imports, and thereby maintaining high domestic prices. It’s a racket that the government is fully involved in. This would have to be the case in order for the monopoly I describe to exist.

Does Canada impose 270% tariffs on U.S. dairy goods as Trump claims?

Canada operates a quota system for imported goods. Below the quota, goods are tariffed at a lower rate or are free from tariffs, however, it may surprise many Canadians to discover that the tariffs on U.S. dairy products rise to an eye-watering 200% – 313.5% after the quota is met.

Trump Claims 270% Tariffs On U.S. Dairy Exports To Canada

The Trudeau regime is not being honest or transparent about tariffs. They behave as if there is no tariff on U.S. goods coming into Canada. If that was the case we’d have more choice and prices would be lower. What Trudeau is disingenuously asking of the Canadian public is that they wave the flag in defence of their continued economic enslavement.

If they were being honest, Canadian politicians could argue that prohibitive trade tariffs are the only barrier protecting Canada from becoming an economic extension of the U.S. But they are not.

Trudeau and his regime have been handed a lifeline by Trump’s tariffs. Suddenly a despised regime at death’s door get’s life breathed into it, at which point Trudeau springs to his feet and transforms into his favourite character – Divisive Man. Now he’s thumping the drum of nationalism and calling on people to fly the flag to save Canada. But it all so transparently fake – Trudeau hates the nationalist drum; his chest beating is confusing the children who clearly heard him declare that Canada was a ‘post national’ entity, which renders it nothing more than an economic zone controlled by an organized crime cartel.

The flag waving is as perverse as it is hollow. Trudeau is not fighting for Canada or Canadians; he is fighting to defend the criminal enterprise that rules over this protectionist hermit kingdom – this is Kim Jong Un trying to keep Samsung out of Communist North Korea.

Canada: 27th Province of China

After Ten years of being dismantled by Trudeau, Canada is no longer a serious country. Trudeau’s inclusively diversive post national economic zone is a place where Chinese Fentanyl kingpins are free to launder billions through real estate; a place where there exist at least eleven foreign agents (aka traitors) serving as MPs or Senators, but the government & state funded media refuses to either reveal their names or remove them. All of which indicates to anyone who retains reason and sound judgement, that the situation here in Canada is perversely disfunctional.

As a nation, we have demonstrated that we are incapable of governing ourselves without descending into a self-serving feudal kleptocracy infested with CCP national security threats, and every aspect of Canadian society has been complicit in this – the media, law enforcement, politicians and the public.

Look at the scene I describe from the point of view of a newly minted & nationalist Trump administration.

And this is where I think Trump is not being honest or transparent about how he views the future of U.S. Canada relations. He looks north – to his largest neighbour – not only is Canada being used as a conduit for a CCP chemical warfare operation (Fentanyl) that is being directed against the U.S. population, but there exist recognized foreign agents operating with impunity at the highest level of Canadian government. Now you start to see your ‘closest ally’ as a security liability. And in that respect we cannot rule out the possibility that the ‘trade war’ is actually a regime change operation aimed at bringing down and replacing a CCP controlled foreign government with something more U.S. friendly.

Then Trudeau declares resource abundant Canada a ‘post national’ entity, and with it, all that liability starts to look opportunity. Why not just absorb Canada as part of a greater U.S.A? It doesn’t take itself seriously, why should we? Certainly Trump’s not about to stand by and watch as China takes over Canada. That’s not going to happen.

I don’t believe that liberal indulgences like Trudeau’s Canada appreciate the danger it is in, as we enter into what Niall Ferguson described as being a 21^st Century return to The Great Game of 19^th Century geo-politics – a paradigm in which larger imperial blocks swallow up smaller and weaker satellites as they jostle for regional supremacy.

A Return To The Age of Empires

China, Russia & Trump’s new nationalist U.S. certainly appreciate the existence of this new paradigm, and I believe this is why Trump is looking to assimilate both Greenland and Canada into a greater U.S. empire, which will provide the U.S. significantly increased access to, and control over, the arctic region and shipping routes.

There is also another factor which I sense the Trump administration recognizes and wants to facilitate favourably in regards to both Greenland & Canada, and that is the clear and rapid waning of European powers. The loss of huge sectors of resource rich colonial era real estate by smaller European nations like Britain & Denmark appears to be an inevitable part of that shift if a 21st Century Age of Empires is upon us.

This could also explain the unprecedented ongoing movement of physical gold from the LBMA in London to the Comox in New York since December of 2024. There is suddenly so much gold being flown into the U.S. that it is negatively affecting U.S. GDP. Physical movement of gold on this scale represents a shift in geo-political power – where gold moves, power moves, and at the moment it is leaving Europe and heading into the United States at an unnatural rate.

Gold Lease Rates Explode As U.S. Repatriation Grows.

It appears that the avoiding tariffs cover story is just that, and one of three things are happening.

1. Fort Knox is depleted of gold reserves and Trump is restocking it prior to an audit.
2. Gold is being moved to safety as they fear an imminent European war with Russia.
3. Trump is preparing to revalue gold up from the current $42 oz, and link the U.S. dollar to gold.

All of these possibilities are rooted in fundamental geo-political changes taking place as we potentially move from a Globalist to an Age of Empires paradigm.

Diversity Is Not Strength

What Canada has done under Trudeau is the geo-political equivalent of declaring itself a pacifist in a lawless society. It might sound like a noble idea, but no one is going to respect it and, sooner or later, in a town full of bad men you are going to end up as somebody’s bitch.      

And so back to the title, which was meant as somewhat of a flippant over simplification. I believe Canada really has little choice left at this stage. The world is in the middle of a geo-political paradigm shift that most people are still not aware of, including it seems our leaders.

Canada has to find its lost de-constructed nationalism and fast, or face being absorbed into a resurgent nationalist U.S. empire. I am not talking about booing the U.S. national anthem, or removing Bourbon from shelves – these are pathetic and desperate attempts at reactive nationalism by people who have spent their entire careers dismantling the nation state. There is no longer any room for strangling the resource industry over ideological indulgences; for embracing the erosive policies of cultural Marxism and declaring that ‘diversity is strength’. These are culturally corrosive policies that are in the process of being tossed into the trash by saner societies.

Globalism is Dead

In Canada & Europe we are still operating an obsolete model that was designed to draw the population into a technocratic system of slavery, and which was completely reliant on the establishment of a one-world government. To continue with this model only weakens us further and ensures that we will be swallowed up by an empire that has either not been contaminated, or has cured itself of this threat.

Allowing ourselves to continue to weakly slip into becoming the 27^th Province of China will inevitably bring regime change or physical annexation from the south. The U.S. will not tolerate Canada becoming the vassal state of a geo-political rival. So the best we can hope for in the time being, is that the tariffs bring down the criminal conspiracy that rules over this feudal kleptocracy, and we finally get a true Nationalist government that operates in the national interest.
