Many Canadians may have missed this news because the mainstream media wasn’t reporting the Biden administration decided not to impose a national carbon tax in the United States..Instead, the Liberal-owned media was following the lead of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and speculating how Canada was going to benefit from America’s perversely and absurdly named Inflation Reduction Act, another massive spending bill from an administration that doesn’t know the value of a trillion dollars..This is comical on two levels. First, the Trudeau government has been lecturing the United States for years the only way to seriously lower greenhouse gas emissions is to punish consumers by forcing them to pay more for gasoline. This will supposedly mean they will use their cars less often, though Trudeau has never explained how they're supposed to get to work or drive their children to soccer practice if rapid transit doesn’t exist. Trudeau of course doesn’t think of these factors since he is chauffeured everywhere and has a private jet that is rarely ever not in use..Of course, a carbon tax doesn’t reduce the amount of gas we use, it just makes us poorer and Trudeau knows that..Secondly, Biden’s plan relies heavily on subsidizing electric cars so, conceivably, every American driver can own one and the looming demand for charging stations will lead to a supply solution from New York to Los Angeles..There are several problems with electric cars being a green panacea. They are powered by electricity, which is powered by fossil fuels. That’s right; where do you think all that electric power is coming from? Green magic? Much of it is coming from coal. Many consumers are going to be shocked at their electric bills when they discover how much energy their new automobile sucks up every day. It might be a choice between driving to work or putting on the air conditioner..And what about those batteries required to run the car? They are in increasingly scarce supply and the materials needed to manufacture them are literally dug up with child labor. Are their ethical issues surrounding green energy? You betcha..So while Trudeau continues to punish us for using gas and is now attacking farmers for using fertilizer that contains nitrogen, Biden is promising an electric car Nirvana that is pie in the sky..Trudeau is also parting ways with the United States on COVID-19 and this has also been largely ignored by the Canadian media..You saw the story here at the Western Standard, but probably nowhere else. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) recently said that the COVID-19 pandemic is over, that it should be treated as every other disease and we should stop treating the unvaccinated as pariahs. The reaction by the health zealots on social media was immediate and severely hostile. It's somewhat of a mystery why or even how the CDC managed to escape the manacles of big pharma and proclaim a moment of truth since they've found little time to do so throughout the pandemic..The pharmaceutical industry made billions off COVID-19 and authoritarian politicians have found it a flexible mechanism to use to strip Americans of their freedoms through inconsistent and ineffective lockdowns..The reaction in Canada was to vociferously uphold the status quo and reinforce the insanity that has defined the Trudeau government’s ongoing response to COVID-19. In this country we continue to impose the ridiculous and dictatorial ArriveCan app that has intimidated and assaulted Canadians upon their return home; we still refuse food at the border from unvaccinated truckers; we still have a two-tiered society, the vaxed and the unvaxed..We have a government that wants us to get that vaccine for the rest of our lives, despite mounting evidence that multiple shots are jeopardizing our health and are not bolstering our immune system against the virus..The politicians with three or four vaccinations are demonstrating this fact themselves by getting multiple cases of COVID. So how crazy are we to believe their narrative? The only people benefitting from lifetime vaccinations is big pharma..The reason for this insanity? Control. The Trudeau government has become addicted to controlling our lives and telling us where we can sit, when we can shop, how we can protest and most importantly, what we can say without it being labeled “misinformation.”.But at least Trudeau is increasingly isolated in his insanity and he can only cling to power for so long.
