The Prime Minister Must Go But So Far He Won't: He Puts Himself Above His Country

I am old & I have NEVER seen a Canadian Prime Minister cling to the job in the face of an overwhelming need to step down in my life

Never before have I seen all these reasons to leave

2/

- All 3 Opposition Parties agreeing to Vote Non-Confidence & bring down the Government
- So Many Ministers have quit
- So incredibly low in the Polls
- His own Party hiring lawyers to figure out how to remove him
- So many members of his own caucus voting for him to leave

3/

I have never in my life seen anyone cling to power in Canada when Canada wants him gone

The fact he hasn't resigned or at least set a date for Liberal Party Convention & suspended Parliament is absolutely unacceptable

Consider how much his inaction is harming Canada

4/

All the Government staff people in Ottawa who are political appointments (there are thousands of them) know they are finished

Naturally they're spending their time looking for new jobs

The Civil Servants who work on policy know have no reason to work: the laws won't pass

5/

And on January 20th the Trump Tariffs may come into effect, certainly some version of the 25% Tariffs even if it's selective will begin

And we won't have a strong, effective Prime Minister to manage the biggest potential trade / economic disaster in Canadian history

6/

All to satisfy one man's ego & one woman's (Katie Telford) desire to keep her PM in power

In all my 67 years I have never seen such a horrible example of a man putting himself ahead of his country
