In typically biased fashion, Time magazine has greeted the defeat of Canada’s conservatives with the headline, “Why Justin Trudeau’s Election Is Good News for the Fight Against Climate Change.”
But the story has a valid point which bears on the question of why
Obama campaign operatives were deployed to subvert the conservative
government of Stephen Harper. Obama expects new Prime Minister Justin
Trudeau to help promote a climate change treaty to overthrow global
capitalism that is expected to come out of a United Nations conference
in Paris in December.
A pro-abortion Catholic, Trudeau wants to legalize marijuana and establish
more injection sites for heroin users around the country.
If you hadn’t heard about Obama’s campaign to destroy Canada’s conservative government, you missed our
story from last week, “Obama Plans Takedown of Another U.S. Ally.”
The
destruction of Harper wasn’t as bloody as the Obama/Hillary Clinton
effort to overthrow Moammar Gadhafi in Libya, which resulted in the
Benghazi murders of four Americans. Nevertheless, the overthrow of the
Harper government had the fingerprints of Obama all over it.
Judi McLeod of Canada Free Press, one of my key sources in last week’s article, summed it up in a
story with
the headline, “Obama Campaign Team Hands Canada Over to the Lib-Left.”
She notes, “When word first leaked out that key Obama campaign workers
had joined the Trudeau election campaign, the mainstream media continued
to look the other way.”
But there’s no reason for conservatives in the U.S. media or Congress to look the other way.
Commenting
on misleading polls that underestimated the liberal tide, McLeod said,
“What happened was similar to the 2012 Barack Obama victory over
Republican Mitt Romney, with a poll-portrayed nail-biter election that
turned into an 11th hour landslide for Obama.”
This is a warning for conservatives in the U.S. who think the pendulum is swinging back to them in 2016. Four years ago
many of the top commentators at
Fox News and Salem Radio thought Romney was a sure winner. Their faulty
predictions have not blunted their drive to be “experts” again this
time around. Many of them have already missed the significance of the
Donald Trump phenomenon and its staying power.
On the left, the
progressive machine is on a roll, from Britain, where the Labor Party
elected a Marxist as its head, to the United States, where Senator
Bernie Sanders (I-VT) is enticing what many considered smart young
people with promises of free taxpayer-financed college educations.
Canada is the latest evidence that conservatives who think history is on their side are in for a rude awakening.
Writing at the conservative Canadian website TheRebel.media, Hamish Marshall
notes that
the get-out-the-vote effort by the Liberal Party and the labor unions
supporting Trudeau was impressive. Marshall wrote, “What defeated the
Conservatives more than the loss of votes, or the collapse of the NDP
[New Democratic Party, the third major party in the race] to the
Liberals was the huge number of new voters. Turnout will be in the range
of 69%, with 3 million more votes cast than in 2011. The vast majority
of those new voters supported the Liberals.”
The situation is
bleak in Canada, probably worse than many conservatives would care to
admit. The battles over abortion-on-demand and homosexual rights are
basically over in Canada, while they continue in the U.S. On social
issues, Harper was credited by Canadian conservatives with slowing down
the movement for euthanasia. He fought a national day care scheme with
tax credits for parents. But that’s been about it.
Giving up on
the Conservative Party, some Canadians created the Christian Heritage
Party (CHP) to compete and wage a real political battle for traditional
values. It is a minor political party that didn’t do very well in the
October 19 elections.
The reason, according to Peter Vogel of the
Christian Heritage Party, is that Canada has already been fundamentally
transformed. “We had a ‘conservative’ government that was not socially
conservative because Canada is not socially conservative, and now we
have a truly liberal government because our society is liberal,”
he said. It is a sad fact. Like much of Europe, Canada has abandoned its Judeo-Christian roots.
Vogel
is right: the Harper conservatives were afraid to be bold. They
operated as if cultural transformation was a fact of life they could not
really change. The Conservative Party had a platform that was vague and
based on staying the course, mostly economically.
In tough
language, Vogel went on to say, “We elected a government that will make
matters worse for the unborn, and other vulnerable citizens, if that is
possible. They will open our borders to erase Canada’s Christian
heritage. (How many churches did Mr. Trudeau visit compared to the
number of mosques he visited?) It is a government that is committed to
impoverishing Canadians by increasing taxes (such as the ‘Carbon Tax’
and continuing to run a deficit). It is a government that will not fight
terrorism in the regions from which it comes, but will allow terrorists
to come to Canada. Then we will have to fight them as they radicalize
our youth, blow-up our buildings, and kill our citizens.”
The comment about Trudeau visiting more mosques than churches is significant. This political fact has dramatic implications.
The CHP
says that
over 50 terrorist organizations are currently active in Canada and that
the Canadian refugee and immigration system “is inadequate to secure
the nation from the threats posed by terrorism.”
Of course, the
United States is also threatened by this problem, which is bound to get
worse under Trudeau. Perhaps Scott Walker’s reported off-hand comment
about possibly erecting a wall between the U.S. and Canada now makes
sense. (Walker did not specifically advocate a wall along our northern
border but acknowledged that law enforcement authorities had discussed a
possible terrorist threat from Canada).
A
viral video posted
on but not produced by TheRebel.media was a stark warning about
Trudeau’s involvement in Muslim causes. Indeed, it showed a picture of
Trudeau reciting the Muslim convert’s “shahada” prayer during a visit to
a mosque.
Ezra Levant of TheRebel.media
wrote at
the Toronto Sun that Trudeau wore a full Arab-style Muslim dress called
a jalabiya to the mosque in B.C. called the Surrey Jamia Masjid. Levant
explained, “But it’s not Trudeau’s dress that was the most unusual.
It’s what he did. He went to the mosque to participate in a religious
ritual, called the Maghrib salah. It’s a daily prayer service with a
particular meaning. Part of the prayer is called the shahada, which in
Arabic means to testify. As in, to testify to the Truth that Allah is
the one true God, and Mohammed is his one true Prophet. To say the
shahada, in the presence of two or more Muslim males, is the sole
requirement in Islamic law to convert to Islam.”
He added, “I
don’t believe Trudeau is Muslim. I don’t believe he is anything other
than what his handlers and costume designers put in his hands before
each public event. And in Trudeau’s case, his senior policy adviser just
happens to be Omar Alghabra, the Saudi-born former president of the
Canadian Arab Federation.”
Trudeau opposes the fight against the Islamic State. The Washington Post and other media are now
reporting that
Trudeau “would make good on a campaign promise to withdraw Canada’s
jets from the U.S.-led bombing campaign against the Islamic State in
Iraq and Syria.” This would seem to be a break with Obama’s policy,
except for the fact that Obama’s heart was never in the fight to begin
with. Hence, Russia’s Vladimir Putin has stepped in to the void
deliberately created by the U.S. President.
U.S. Congressional
leaders in the U.S. seem preoccupied with whom to elect as the new
Speaker of the House, as well as Benghazi. Those are important matters.
But it might make some sense, in terms of oversight of the Obama
administration, to launch an inquiry into American political
interference in the Canadian elections.
What does possible House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) think about that? Some conservatives want to know.
