(Im probably going to upset some folks with this one) 🏥 Canada’s Trump Derangement Disorder There is a peculiar illness sweeping the Canadian political psyche. It is loud, emotional, self righteous and completely disconnected from reality. Trump Derangement Syndrome. Everywhere you look, Canadians are running around shrieking that the sky is falling because Donald Trump is president of the United States. Not Canada. The United States. A foreign country whose voters exercised their democratic right and chose the candidate they wanted. And that is the part that seems to enrage so many Canadians the most. Donald Trump may not be a likable man. He is brash, blunt and unapologetic. But he was duly elected by the American people, and unlike most modern politicians, he is actually doing what he told his voters he would do. During Trump's campaign: ▪︎ He promised an immigration crackdown. That is happening. ▪︎ He promised to rein in unchecked government spending. That is happening. ▪︎ He promised to put American industry first. That is happening. ▪︎ He promised to challenge global trade arrangements that hollowed out US manufacturing. That is happening. ▪︎ He promised border enforcement, regulatory rollbacks, and a harder line on crime and foreign entanglements. That is happening. Like him or not, his record of following through is remarkably consistent with what he campaigned on. Now contrast that with our own situation. @MarkJCarney campaigned on economic stability, affordability, unity, restoring confidence, protecting Canadian workers and strengthening our domestic economy. What Canadians got instead was stagnant growth, rising household stress, collapsing productivity, worsening manufacturing output, worsening affordability, deepening regional resentment and a government that seems more interested in global applause than domestic performance. Yet somehow Canadians are far more emotionally invested in America’s president than in their own government’s failures. Some Canadians have cancelled trips to the US. Some refuse to buy American products. Some march in Canadian streets protesting American policy. Some spend their days rage posting about Trump while their own grocery bills explode, their own jobs vanish and their own economy drifts. The irony is painful. There is no other foreign leader in living memory that Canadians obsess over this way. Not China’s leadership. Not Russia’s. Not Iran’s. Not Saudi Arabia’s. Not Venezuela’s. Only the United States. Only Trump. Because hating Trump has become a social identity for a certain segment of Canada’s political class and media. And our media happily feeds it. Columnists like Andrew Coyne churn out moral outrage about Trump while downplaying or outright ignoring the wreckage at home. It is easier to sneer at Americans than confront the uncomfortable reality of Canada’s own decline. What makes this even more absurd is the moral superiority complex. - Canadians lecture Americans about democracy while refusing to respect the outcome of their democratic process. - Canadians talk endlessly about tolerance while expressing open contempt for tens of millions of American voters. - Canadians demand accountability abroad while excusing broken promises and dysfunction at home. At the end of the day, Trump is accountable to Americans. Carney is accountable to Canadians. One of those leaders is delivering what he promised. The other is not. If Canadians devoted even a fraction of their Trump rage to demanding competence from their own government, this country would be in far better shape. Instead, we get endless noise, endless outrage and endless distraction while the real problems in Canada grow larger by the day. I am fed up. Sick and tired of the hysteria. Sick and tired of the media’s complicity. Sick and tired of Canadians screaming about America while their own house is burning. Trump Derangement Syndrome is not patriotism. It is avoidance. And Canada can no longer afford it.
