Canada\u2019s deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance, Chrystia Freeland, quit her job, just before she was set to deliver the latest budget, like calling in sick before an important meeting that you know you can’t handle. The $62 billion deficit that was set to be announced \u2013 $22 billion more than finance minister Chrystia Freeland\u2019s projected target \u2013 might have had something to do with it.

Chrystia Freeland claimed that she was pushed out first, though, writing in her resignation letter to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, On Friday, you told me you no longer want me to serve as your Finance Minister and offered me another position in the cabinet.\u201d  Chrystia Freeland also informed that she rejected costly political gimmicks\u201d like sales tax holidays and one time cash handouts, presumably, which she herself had spent months relentlessly promoting. Chrystia Freeland makes it sound like she was a sudden voice of reason, and referred to strenuous efforts this fall to manage our spending in ways that will give us the flexibility we will need to meet the serious challenges presented by the United States.\u201d

The first person to descend at any random bus stop in Canada is about as qualified as Chrystia Freeland to manage Canada’s finances, and this would explain why inflation, cost of living, and unemployment have skyrocketed on her watch. But it\u2019s really just a vibecession,\u201d she recently suggested. Damn Canadians just need to shift their mindset and stop pretending that her economy sucks.

Canadians are always the problem for Chrystia Freeland, particularly when Canadians stand in the way of whatever agenda this World Economic Forum prot\u00e9g\u00e9e and trustee is trying to force feed them. When Canadians pushed back against Covid jab mandates through the Freedom Convoy trucker movement, Chrystia Freeland ordered their bank accounts blocked.

Chrystia Freeland\u2019s expertise seems to come from the financial journalism that she did, from Ukraine, where her grandfather once ran a World War II-era Nazi newspaper. Maybe she could just go be the finance minister there now, since the Ukrainian Canadian Congress just issued a statement calling her one of the key leaders in the G7 and international community in developing the plan to use frozen Russian assets to support Ukraine, she ensured continued and predictable support for Ukraine\u2019s defense of the freedom of Europe.\u201d

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz called for a no-confidence vote against himself on Monday, officially asking the parliamentarians of the Bundestag whether they might wish to do him the honor of taking a foot to his arsch – a case of political suicide-by-cop. Chancellor Olaf Scholz wanted them to put his current mandate out of its misery because he\u2019s totally impotent, politically speaking. Why? Because the yellow light centrists of his traffic light coalition bailed on him and he no longer has the majority needed to ram things through parliament.

All this came about because Scholz\u2019s finance minister, Christian Lindner, from the centrist Free Democratic Party, decided back in November that he wasn\u2019t interested in a career as a magician attempting to work miracles with Scholz\u2019s spending priorities. Germany virtue-signaled itself right into economic devastation following along with EU sanctions to impress their girlfriend Vladimir Zelensky. Then Scholz told his finance minister to just lift his foot up off the debt brake a bit so he can go on another \u20ac15 billion ($15.7 billion) spending joyride for Ukraine. And Lindner was like, nope, how about you just dust off some of those long-range Taurus missiles in the closet and give those to your girlfriend instead? Yeah, they\u2019re dangerous, but they\u2019re also just sitting there like an unused exercise bike with laundry hanging off it, so it\u2019s a win-win \u2013 well, except for that World War III risk.

Chancellor Olaf Scholz didn\u2019t want to do that because it would mean babysitting Kiev so it didn\u2019t start a third world war against Russia. It would also mean sending German troops to Ukraine so Zelensky could sit on their lap and pretend to drive the Tauruses. And it\u2019s never the toddler who gets blamed for those accidents.

So Scholz and Lindner had a falling out over a month ago that ultimately led to a breakup, with Lindner and his yellow light centrists walking away from Scholz\u2019s coalition table like a teenaged clique in the school cafeteria.

German lawmakers welcomed the opportunity to kick Scholz in the lederhosen and out of the Biergarten. One down, one more to go. Because next up (probably) is Christian Democrat leader Friedrich Merz, currently topping the polls ahead of an expected February election. He seems keen on giving Washington and Brussels even more power over German decision-making. Yeah, maybe Washington can advise Berlin on nail placement for its economic coffin, too? As if that\u2019s really Germany\u2019s big issue right now \u2013 that it wasn\u2019t sycophantic enough under Scholz, with Merz saying how it was embarrassing how Scholz acted in the European Union.\u201d Scholz shrugged off Nord Stream being blown up, putting the German economy at the mercy of pricey American gas, and Merz doesn\u2019t think Scholz was enough of a team player?

Ukrainians sound about as well-off now as a result of Chrystia Freeland\u2019s efforts as Europeans are free,\u201d so she\u2019s clearly done a bang-up job on both fronts. Just like she has in Canada.

Next up to pop the escape hatch: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau himself. Maybe. He\u2019s reportedly considering his options. Ziplining into oblivion behind Chrystia Freeland sounds like a good one. If all these globalists could please just form an orderly line for a permanent express checkout, they\u2019d be doing their citizens and the entire Western world so much more of a service than their presence ever has.

The Western political establishment is in crisis. The dominoes are falling, and it\u2019s the leaders who once championed the very agendas driving their countries into economic and political disarray who are now jumping ship. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Canadian Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland have already taken the emergency exits, leaving behind chaos and fractured coalitions. The big question now is who else will flee soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Western leaders are pushing the world towards a global economic collapse and military conflict which could cost millions of lives. In the Middle East despite overwhelming evidence of fundamentalism and genocide, and also deliberately antagonizing China into conflict through escalated militarization in the Pacific, South China Sea and Indian Ocean.

Because the Global South is unifying economically and strategically, and with time will challenge the Western dominance which enables it to extract wealth and resources from poorer nations like Sri Lanks. Western imperialism is threatened, and Western governments clearly see war as the means for maintaining the status quo. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
