Could Liberal leader Mark Carney be more abhorrent?
The answer is yes, even considering Chinese election interference on behalf of the Liberals, his company receiving a $250-million Chinese loan, and new allegations of offshore tax avoidance in the billions.
Carney branded himself a political outsider from the start of his campaign. Is he also an outsider to decency — positioning himself as a special-class citizen above Canada’s growing peasant class?
A video surfaced Tuesday, date unknown, of Carney admitting that taxes on flying and other transportation should increase for the sake of net-zero and fighting climate change.
"We should be taking into account the impact of our flying on the planet now," he said in the video. "You push up the tax on flying, you push up the cost on transport, and that's in part with putting a price on carbon."
Canadians are taxed to the limit — buried in a cost-of-living crisis and a plummeting standard of living. The idea of making life even more expensive reads like a line from a dystopian novel. It is cruel, elitist, and stupid.
The comment is particularly disturbing as Carney — who operates outside his own progressive dogmas — wasted little time after becoming Liberal leader to take a taxpayer-funded, wide-body jet to visit friends, like King Charles, in Europe. He took his wife Diana on the excursion, which cost taxpayers roughly $500,000.
As prime minister by technicality, not election, he had a legal right to take the trip. As a climate change autocrat willing to let others suffer for his ideology, he lacked the moral right.
As election day nears, Carney — a man of considerable personal wealth — has revealed himself as a malignant narcissist. He is 10 times smarter than Justin Trudeau and far more dangerous.
Economically and socially, he is willing to let Canada burn to rule over the ashes.
