    This is an insane word salad:

    As everyone knows, the Country of Canada has treated the United States very unfairly for decades. Now, things are turning around for the U.S.A., and FAST! But imagine, Canada is building a massive bridge between Ontario and Michigan. They own both the Canada and the United States side and, of course, built it with virtually no U.S. content. President Barack Hussein Obama stupidly gave them a waiver so they could get around the BUY AMERICAN Act, and not use any American products, including our Steel. Now, the Canadian Government expects me, as President of the United States, to PERMIT them to just “take advantage of America!” What does the United States of America get — Absolutely NOTHING! Ontario won’t even put U.S. spirits, beverages, and other alcoholic products, on their shelves, they are absolutely prohibited from doing so and now, on top of everything else, Prime Minister Carney wants to make a deal with China — which will eat Canada alive. We’ll just get the leftovers! I don’t think so. The first thing China will do is terminate ALL Ice Hockey being played in Canada, and permanently eliminate The Stanley Cup. The Tariffs Canada charges us for our Dairy products have, for many years, been unacceptable, putting our Farmers at great financial risk. I will not allow this bridge to open until the United States is fully compensated for everything we have given them, and also, importantly, Canada treats the United States with the Fairness and Respect that we deserve. We will start negotiations, IMMEDIATELY. With all that we have given them, we should own, perhaps, at least one half of this asset. The revenues generated because of the U.S. Market will be astronomical. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

    PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP

    Ah yes, the Davos Elite, the usual conspiracy scapegoats.

    The same group that is organizing the “You will Own Nothing” plot and force you to eat bugs and be locked up in your 15 minute prison.

    Lots of topics are brought up at the WEF. Even Trump’s word salad of a “speech” got polite applause from those who stayed to the end but I doubt the Davos Elite agreed with his message that the USA needs full ownership of Greenland and Europe can’t function without the USA.

    Can someone define the differences/commonalities between the Davos Elite and the Laurentian Elite? Is Trudeau the common factor? It’s hard for me to keep up with the conspiracy villains.

    Freshly re-approved CPC leader Pierre Poilievre will protect Canada from the globalist WEF elites:

    This article is well written and provides detailed connections between “Freedom Convoy” protesters, Alberta Separatists and other disgruntled people/organizations. A few highlights from the article:

    Bruce Pardy, the executive director for an organization called Rights Probe

    “In order to really turn the page here to become not just an independent country, but a new and free country, Alberta has to ditch the things that are Canadian that exist in Alberta right now,” Pardy said. “Let’s just list some. A Westminster system of government. A Crown. Single-payer public health-care system, a managerial state and Aboriginal rights, you have to get rid of all of these things. And of all those things, perhaps the elephant in the room is Aboriginal rights.”

    Pardy is the executive director of Rights Probe, and the sole staffer listed with the organization, which warns of “the end of Western liberal civilization” on its website. Pardy is also a senior fellow at the Fraser Institute, a conservative think tank.
