Pierre is such an imbecile: his latest is to come out against the recent CRTC decision to triple the revenue stream that American technology, media and entertainment giants must pay to fund Canadian content. He is demanding that Carney overrule the CRTC. He says this is a consumer tax and will lead to American retaliation and further job losses in this country.
Let's enlighten this dummkopf point by point, given that he's incapable of seeing the big picture on his own: Canadians may not be breaking down doors to stream Canadian cultural content, but they want that content to be available and appropriately funded. Talk about obvious to all except for You-Know-Who...
Secondly, our trade negotiations haven't been true negotiations for months. Trump's position is out-and-out blackmail and bullying, his way or the highway. He wants this decision gone, along with supply management, Chinese EVs and provincial liquor bans. In short, he expects Canada to cave across-the-board just to get a one-sided deal that will favour the Americans. Well, fuck him! So, in the end, it will be NO DEAL, which is one hell of a lot better than a deal that's lopsided in favour of the Americans.
In addition, our moron of a leader hasn't got a clue how perception works: the moment the CPC sides, even indirectly, with the biggest American tech giants, the more the party is perceived as being enthusiastically in the bag for the Trump Administration. PP, Trump's hand maiden. And that'll be great for the Liberals when the election rolls around in the fall. Talk about clueless. Sink this idiot now before it's too late.
So I remind caucus again that their job is to tan his hide before the voters get the asses of fifty of our MPs. Either he goes, or almost all of you do in the next election.
