Donald Trump with Maple Syrup on Top
In Canada we feel safe. Behind our double doubles, better beer and hockey gear, we feel safe in the sense that Donald Trump still remains a reality TV show. However, given four years of a Liberal government, Trumpism may become less television and more of an ensuing reality for Canada. Yet, most Canadians haven’t spotted this possibility. This is because Canada’s inferiority complex of living next door to the world’s superpower has led to a feeble sense of chauvinism which is often blinding. We like to hide behind our “we say zed they say zee” and our universal healthcare pretending that none of the realities or trends in the US, such as the Donald Trump phenomenon, will ever cross the border. I’d like to argue that this perspective is very naive.
Let’s be clear, Conservatism did not create Trumpism. The man’s never heard or read anything by Edmund Burke. What we’re witnessing now in the United States is 5 decades of Leftist ideology that has been forced down the American people’s throats in every sphere of their lives now being regurgitated on mass. Caitlyn Jenner on the television, transgender studies in the schools, Christmas trees morphing into Holiday trees, and Miley Cyrus in pasties singing Silent Night has resulted in a society that is in a state of dysphoria; a place unrecognizable to common Americans who don’t live in New York or L.A.
It’s a society that finds no refuge with mainstream Conservatives who’ve failed to combat this in both the congress, the senate, and the oval office, let alone Hollywood. They’ve now sought shelter under the loud angry rich guy who pounds at the pulpit screaming about boycotting Macy’s and building a great big very huge wall. But as I warned before, do not highbrow this with that Canadian chauvinistic attitude: mark my words- a Canadian Donald Trump is fermenting as you read this now. A sort of blend between Rob Ford and Don Cherry type of character will emerge in our discourse within the next decade.
The reason why Trumpism will venture into Canada is because Canada suffers from the same illness taking place in the US- political correctness. The Laurentian Elite who dominate Canada’s political and cultural apparatuses espouse in the same philosophy of the Frankfurt School and use of the same Saul Alinsky Rules for Radicals tactics which are used by the American Left. Using words like Islamophobia, transphobia, homophobia, etc are just as palatable on our elite’s tongues as they are in the US as tools for the Left to use in shutting down any dissent and opposition against them.
In Canada, when hundreds of protesters gathered outside Queen’s park in opposition to the new Ontario sex ed curriculum which teaches children that there are in fact 6 genders, the Liberal premier Kathleen Wynne scoffed all them off as homophobic bigots. The tax funded CBC and Globe and Mail depicted the Conservative minister of Immigration Chris Alexander as having blood on his hands for not vetting enough Syrian refugees. Now the CBC along with all mainstream outlets depict anyone skeptical of rushing 50,000 refugees into Canada, as either Islamaphobic, or xenephobic. However, according to Trudeau in his victory speech ‘this is what positive politics looks like.’ The Left in the US and Canada share the same principles and tactics, and are unknowingly sowing the seeds of the same demagoguery emerging as an opposition to this in the US.
This is denigrating our political system, but four years of a Trudeau government that is in a marriage with the mainstream media, will facilitate an atmosphere very similar to the United States whereby it is fertile ground for a Maple syrup covered Donald Trump to emerge and bloom in Canada’s Conservative movement.
