“I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind.” ~~ John G. Diefenbaker

OLSEN - The Canadian government is also trying to convince Canadians they are serious about climate change and that we should all pay for our carbon emissions

Have you watched Hasan Minhaj ’s take-down of Canada through his interview with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on his Netflix show Patriot Act yet? His assessment of our deep inconsistencies is eye-opening. On several critical issues, Minhaj sets up Canada as a shining example of progressive ideals then he hits us with our dark shadowy side that we would rather not admit. He establishes Canada as the country that created peace-keeping and who also builds war machines and sells them to the likes of Saudi Arabia. Perhaps it was the trap that Minhaj set for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on climate action and fossil fuel production that is the most damning reality we must rationalize together.
