Dear Editor:
I was surprised at the wording and results of a recent Advertiser poll about whether Mark Carney (60%) or Pierre Poilievre (40%) would be most effective in dealing with U.S. President Donald Trump.
I doubt if there is anyone on Earth that can effectively deal with Trump. He changes his threats daily (sometimes more often).
When voting on April 28 our focus should not be on Trump but what can be done for Canada! We need changes in Canada! Choose a PM who will cut out wasteful spending, bring down our enormous debt, deal with drug crisis, cut out all carbon taxes, stop rampant crimes, find a suitable plan for housing, build pipelines so that we can get oil/gas to eastern Canada and to trading partners around the world not just the U.S.
Mark Carney has no parliamentary experience, has chosen a cabinet that is 87% same as Justin Trudeau, promotes net-zero emissions and a cap on Alberta’s oil, won’t build a pipeline in Quebec and is a WEF member.
A greater concern than Trump is the collapse of our country/economy and threat of Alberta/Western separation.
A lot of these issues have been brought on by or not addressed by Trudeau (with Carney advising him) and his Liberals governing for almost 10 years.
A “same old, same old” Liberal government will not solve these problems, rather will be a disaster.
