It’s time to govern as a true democracy

-

Regarding the recent Wadena News article entitled Prairie industry suffers in Canada’s biggest constructi­on project. If the government under the Trudeau Liberals has subsidized constructi­on of two natural gas plants, (LNG Canada and Woodfibre LNG, in British Columbia) using hundreds of millions of Canadian tax dollars to the economic detriment of Canadian constructi­on workers and largely to the economic benefit of constructi­on workers of a foreign communist regime, (China, led squarely by the Communist Party of China that drove out its nationalis­ts by 1949 and is at present imprisonin­g two Canadian citizens, Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor, on false charges while imposing trade sanctions for political-economic gain) there is something definitely wrong with the current government, governance model, and government management philosophy of Canada (i.e. liberalism, globalism, and global free trade irrespecti­ve of type of political system).

Good to remember who our true friends and allies are. True friends and allies share their special forces and intelligen­ce with you. True friends and allies do not undermine your economy by stealth and imprison your fellow citizens for political-socio-economic gain.

Canada’s government, governance model, and government management philosophy and its domestic and foreign policies should be directed toward Canada’s democratic political-socio-economic interests, not in spite of them and to their detriment. Canada needs to be governed as a true democracy — not open for exploitati­on and terrorism by despotic communist enclaves (i.e. domestic or foreign).
