Trudeau’s pursuit of the UN seat was bigger than him — it was a manifestation of a larger ideological narrative on the Canadian left that Insists all foreigners love Canada and international institutions crave Canadian leadership. Both myths swatted down by an indifferent world.

Blame Harper: “But the reality was, coming in five years later than them gave us a delay that we unfortunately weren’t able to overcome. I was hoping we would, and we certainly worked hard to do it.”
Captain Obvious, writing at Macleans: Believing a win at the UN would fall from the heavens on Trudeau because he wasn’t Harper was an expression of the narcissism and shallowness that have characterized this government during much of its time in office
Liberals think that Americans who don’t know anything about Canada are simply ignorant. The truth is they could give a rats ass about Canada, and don’t bother to know anything about it.
The rest of the world views Canada as a laughing stock, or a piggy bank. Take your pick.
They view Canada only for the following:
Hockey
Beer
Eskimos
Maple syrup
A parasite of the US
Anything more is typical Liberal self-aggrandizement that we have been putting up with for decades. Leadership? Trudeau is just another preening virtue signalling narcissist. Europe is full of them, he is not unique, just another dumb poseur.
This is a glorious FAIL. NOBODY CARES except for the latte Liberals, and their fellow travellers that dutifully bow to the corrupt Communist UN
You forgot Mounties…
The few Canadians I’ve met have been intelligent and decent, sometimes highly so. It’s a mystery then why Canadian governments are even more abysmal in composition and “accomplishment” generally than they are here in Australia, the U.S. or the U.K….
Let me correct that “The rest of the world views Canada as a laughing sock,…”
Q: “How much did Canada spend on this Blackie vanity project?”
A: “Climate change, diplomacy, other bullshit, this government is working hard for all Canadians, women’s groups, LGBT, children in Palestine, justice, Iranian plane crash, Canadian values, blah blah blah…”

The moron Trudeau has been a foreign policy disaster. The world sees him as a lightweight fool lacking any substance. His performance in Indian plus his blackface, rolled up sock, performance is the worst kind of racism. Not to dwell on foreign policy, his domestic policy has been a disaster too. The country is in danger of breaking up.
The country is not “in danger” of breaking up. A break up is the best thing that could happen to Canada. Like a stodgy old multinational who’s consolidated book value is well below its Break Up value. Bring it. The west will prosper. And I dont care what happens to the rest of the country as they are already foreigners to me.
IDNF, you might want to look at just how many “others” now occupy your borders. You might want to look at how many socialists are actually in the west. Sask. was and probably still is basically a socialist province. Calgary has a muslim mayor and the NDP actually got elected in Alberta. B C has been socialist forever. What would you break into? The hard working hard driving white man is hated by most of your population and you still have the Canadian Indians to deal with. Break up, sure thing, into the same old thing, just on a smaller geographic scale.
Sask is not even close to being a socialist province. Alberta NDP was a fluke. Nenshi is done. BC, who cares about BC!
Isn’t Sask the province where most of the industry consists of crown corporations?

Remember that Tommy Douglas fellow?
“The danger to Canada is not Justin Trudeau but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the job of Prime Minister. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of a Trudeau than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgement to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man as their Prime Minister in the first place. Canada’s problem is much deeper and much more serious than Mr. Trudeau who is a mere symptom of what ails Canada. Blaming the Prince of Fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their Prince. The country can survive a Trudeau, who after all is merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools who made him their leader.” — A comment taken from the National Post
+++ Jim. A country of fools ruled by fools.
Tommy Douglas was many generations ago. The people who voted for him are gone. Saskatchewan people are more conservative than Albertans now.
Yes their are Crown Corps but those are being incrementally sold off. Potash Corp was sold off and is now one of the world’s largest fertilizer companies. There is a lot of debate about selling more off like Sask Tel. The main thing is that there are fewer crown corps not more.
Trudeau blames the late start in 2015 for his losing.
He only had five years.

I guess that is the narrative though, blame Harper because Blackie only had five years to hand out bribes.
He can try to blame Harper all he likes. It’s entirely false because this ignored the fact that he LOST support among UN members compared to Harper’s bid for the seat in 2015. The dismal truth is that the UN members see Canada as a weak, ineffectual nation particularly under the leadership of the Pajama Dancer. They see him as a false, faithless liar after he tried to sell out ATIP members by cutting a side-deal with China. The EU members see him as a fake by dissing Canada’s commitment to NATO and collective security.
5 year plans ; where have I heard that term before ?
You need ten years to campaign for a two year seat? Seriously?
Put a sock in it bongo.
The world just sent you a message STFU.
I would love to see President Trump troll your boy minister some day.
Maybe when the next Security Council vote is planned, PDT could have his staff arrange a call to your PM. “Hi Justin? Donald Trump here. I really need your Security Council vote on UN Resolution #####. Can I count on your vote?”
“What? You don’t have a vote on the UN Security Council? I thought you had it in the bag, back in May 2020? Well sorry to bother you, I am sure you need to get back to the important business of not exporting Canadian Oil.” Doesn’t hang up, but sets down phone so Canadians can hear him, “Meadows! Why are you wasting my time with this childish, pompous, narcissistic windbag?!” [Click, phone hangs up]
The USA has a permanent veto at the UNSC, so they don’t “need a vote” for anything, from anybody. Trump doesn’t really need a thing from Trudeau. Trump’s abundant patience with Justin is really quite amazing when you think about it. He could easily make life a living hell for Justin (and thus, Canada) but he doesn’t.
I don’t know why anyone would want us to be associated with the U N period. A cabal of third world dictators controlled by seven nations. We could do quite well without them and without the socialists who now have our miserable country in their grip.
Some UN bigwigs kept whispering to him “just a few more $100 million and you’re a lock!”. They’re all now down at a pub with Norway and Ireland toasting Justin and laughing their heads off.
Why did Trudeau want a seat on the security council? China already has one.
Blackface wanted the little seat beside China’s throne, easier to pass little brown envelopes and take a pat on the head.
Justin was wagging his tail, expecting to be China’s poodle at the UN>
LOL!!!
Ghost, you win this thread:-))))
Burn, sir.
Why did Justine want a seat at the UN Security Council?
Because in the Progressive World that is the pinnacle of Virtue Signalling.
Where useless countries can lecture the Big Boys.
Basking in their delusions of adequacy.
Why did Justine want a seat at the UN Security Council?
Maybe he wanted to finally finish something he started or simply win Maggie’s approval.
So do we still have to send all that money Great Leader promised shithole countries?
The money has been sent already.
You don’t get 108 votes with “promises.” Some Canadian voters might be that stupid but tinpot dictators are not. No vote until the cheque clears or the bags of cash arrive at the airport.
Why should any nation that does not have a significant military have a seat on the UN Security Counsel? No skin in the game.
Why not?
The UN Human Rights Council has Libya, Sudan, Venezuela, Somalia, Congo, and Pakistan among its current members, so why shouldn’t Ireland and Norway, with their “vast” armed forces, be members of the Security Council?
The whole UN machine could be most charitably described as a “Kalfka-esque” farce.
The difference is stark.
When Harper committed to peace keeping, it meant boots on the ground.
When the sock monkey committed to peace keeping, he shopped around for one that he thought had the least risk and then when he couldn’t find one offered to airlift someone else’s military into a peace keeping mission.
Harper ruffled feathers but they knew where he stood. Sock monkey is only taking positions based on the flavour of the moment.
When Harper considered an issue he determined what was in the interest of Canada, the sock monkey only considers how it benefits him and conflates that to be Canadian values.
This was to be a benchmark to exorcise Harper from Justin’s mind.
Harper lost the seat because he would not compromise, the sock monkey lost it because he was compromised.
Mostly I agree, Joseph. The problem is that the little turd shopped us into a battalion combat team deployment into Latvia. So instead of some useful role somewhere, the Forces are dumped as expendables if the balloon ever goes up with Russia. Sounds a lot like the worthless turd Paul Martin who relocated the Canadian mission in Afghanistan to Khandahar, thereby causing more than 150 deaths. Always leave it to the Liberals to add to the misery of military deployments.
Sophie went to the West K-Bec SPCA and rescued a dog today for Juthtin to kick when he gets to Harrington Lake on Friday afternoon.

Think the chicoms didnt lobby against Canada? The bong has sucked up to them his entire life…and his old man before him.
The Indians threw him overboard. Canada is laughable on the world stage.
Worst move ever by the bong. He exposed himself big time and found out what the world thinks of him. Stoooopid.
“He exposed himself big time and found out what the world thinks of him. Stoooopid.”
Pretty much sums it up, standing in the middle of the town square with his pants around his ankles.
We don’t have a government; rather we have a blackface farce.

The word is cockwomble. The world thinks Blackie Mc Spendy is a cockwomble.
FlynPigRanch: Thank you for augmenting my growing repertoire of Justin Trudeau insults. Cockwomble ridicules where warranted while allowing the insulter to appear erudite and worldly.
Justin is indeed a perfect example of a cockwomble.
At least one thing was accomplished – I got a mammoth gut-laff out of it; made my day.
Thanks, Little Potato!
Face it, turdo la doo. You suck … because you don’t suck like you used to.
The scribblers are saying Canadians don’t care about this but my spidey senses tell me this time they do.
Bongo ran with this right out of the gate. He set the bar impossibly high and when it came time to jump he fell on his ass. Embarrassed hizself and the country. I think there is a political price to pay here.
He did the same thing with his trip to India. Embarrassed Canadians.
well the cuckservatives now have their game laid out for them, the Turd spent ovver 6 billion off shore to get a seat on the UNsecurtiy council. Indians in northern Ont still need clean drinking water, CP is still too low, vets are still under paid, infrastructure is still poor, and NO GOD DAMNED UN seat. But will they use this, or fold up as they usually do?????
“Indians in northern Ont still need clean drinking water” What.. do you mean Trudy the Metis did not get anything for REAL Indians, Trudy got Indian status for Metis from the SCOC mothers……….Darn
The Liberals are much like Justin – resting on laurels and cash that someone else made. They produce nothing of any value or build something upon the existing wealth or excellence. They believe that Canada is special on superficial grounds just as they believe that they are special on superficial grounds because no one has ever disabused them of those notions.
Canada is an overgrown, middle-aged Peter Pan with an inflated ego and nothing to offer.
Thanks for bringing us back, Justin.
