Aristides Posted February 7 Report Posted February 7 15 hours ago, Michael Hardner said: My take is that the populists ists have a better understanding of politics, and can capitalize on that, Politically, by breaking conventions and exploiting New Media in a way that the old guard cannot. The problem is that politics is more than winning elections. Big problems need deep thinking, and collaboration with the public as well as experts. Slogans don't solve big problems. Agreed. There is such a thing as common sense but all too often it means simplistic solutions for complex problems. Quote

Everybody's sick of it. 3/4 of the population is done with woke. D e I is vanishing everywhere, they're closing down the free drug programs they cost so many their lives, the carbon tax is going in the garbage bin. Everybody everywhere has had enough of the woke Woke has driven our country into a disaster. Woke has stolen the future of a generation will not be able to afford homes or luxuries the people like you took for granted and have denied them through your bad policies and bad politics. People have figured it out. Vote woke go broke Quote There are two types of people in this world: Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data

He said that while Americans engage in a war on woke, Canadians will continue to value the truth. Anyone got a problem with that? Common sense vs leftist ideology. I'll take common sense.

America bad. West bad. White man bad. That's pretty much the gist of it. It's a leftist activist cult that's overrun most of the country's institutions and are actively forcing their screed on everyone, heavily targeted towards indoctrinating young women and children.

Carney won't be any different from Trudeau. it's baffling why the Liberals wouldn't take this opportunity to drop Woke like a hot rock polling shows that two thirds of Canadians oppose it if the Liberals dropped Woke, they really would be back to neck and neck with the Conservatives Edited February 7 by Dougie93 1 Quote

Woke simply meant being aware of the social and institutional injustice denigrated minorities experienced. Now it can mean anything between that and issuing a permit for a wind turbine.

Can you or anyone else point to a recent news report of something woke that has 2/3 of Canadians pissed off enough to make a big fuss over it? Conversely how about any reports of institutional injustice against a denigrated minority that 2/3 are cheering for? Something like Indians being put back in their place would work.

I'm not trying to stop you, the left derailing itself for Woke is entirely in my interests in terms of the Natives I was in Oshweken just yesterday, talking to some Mohawks about it they didn't have the slightest interest in it they said "we are not Canadians, we don't want to be Canadians" what they want is their own ethnonationalist cantonment wherein Canadian jurisdiction does not extend they want to be compensated for Canada occupying their lands ; cash money on the barrel head they want to own their own businesses and be free to do business with whomever they please but they are not interested in attending Canadian universities to be indoctrinated by the Laurentian Elites and they certainly do not want their children to be indoctrinated into Transgender Ideology they are quite American in their outlook actually ; they just want their freedom, property & guns and unlike the Woke students at university, the Iroquois own fully detached homes ; paid for by selling tobacco Quote

So like which parties and how many are you talking about? Or do you mean liberals partying? It seems you're just connecting a bunch of disparate partisan feelings and impressions of your own into something cogent. You think examples like this is what PP means when he talks about what's woke? You figure this is the winning formula will sway Canadians into remaining or going back to being comatose? Good luck with it. Quote A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.

You can say stuff like this all you want, but all it is, is that you are burying your collective head in the sand. Which works to our advantage. Yes, keep denying that normal Canadians are sick of woke and everything the left stand for. Don't do anything different, keep doubling down on what you've been doing.

The fact you people even capitalize the word now speaks volumes about how desperate you are to change the channel back to where it was. That's conservatism for you....driving with your gaze fixed wistfully on the rear view mirror. Trump's arrival when Trudeau is leaving is changing everything. PP's floundering in the face of the swiftly moving circumstances attending this says a lot about the most important skill set he's not bringing to the job he's applying for...thinking on the fly...adapting to things in the certain confident manner the circumstances call for. Mind you it shouldn't take a genius to put Trump in his place. Is PP still flogging the carbon tax horse that died under him?
