Trudeau Liberals Electoral Chances are as Good as Dead

Justin Trudeau’s Liberal Party’s popularity has plummeted to record lows  in recent polls. Scandals and his carbon tax weakened Trudeau’s support after years of support. Many election Analysts belive Justin Trudeau and his Liberals will not survive the next election.

The newest Angus Reid survey shows the Conservatives leading nationwide, with Trudeau and his Liberals losing support in most provinces, especially Ontario and Quebec. Analysts say Trudeau’s leadership fatigue, unhappiness over inflation, ridiculous carbon tax, and continual policy flip-flopping are driving voters away.

Trudeau’s carbon tax is unpopular across Canada. Many Canadians hate its higher prices for homes and businesses.

Critics say it unfairly targets energy, threatening jobs and prosperity. Skeptics believe the tax fails to solve global climate challenges despite claims it will reduce emissions.

Provincial governments like Alberta passionately oppose federal intrusion. The carbon tax still divides society.

Steven Guilbeault, Trudeau’s Environment and Climate Change Minister, has lost support from neutral public and provincial governments and the powerful climate action lobby.

Don Braid of the Calgary Herald says Chickens with their heads cut off run around in circles. In politics, the federal Liberals are starting to exhibit this postmortem behaviour.

Braid says their electoral chances are as good as dead, and their head, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, seems only tenuously attached to his party. Still, they dash around crazily, patching this and launching that, all while sticking to their unpopular policies, ministers and leader.

Environment and Climate Change Minister Steven Guilbeault, the core cabinet fowl who said no new roads should be built in Canada, continues to press his climate extremism.

“The result is political fiasco.”

Alberta and Saskatchewan have always been bitterly opposed to many measures. But Guilbeault is now losing support from the public, provincial governments that once were at least neutral and, crucially, the powerful climate action lobby.

The disasters are self-inflicted. Trudeau and Guilbeault stuck to the carbon tax even after the policy’s disastrous deflation by the “carve out” for home heating oil, a benefit mainly to Atlantic Canada.

Their faux-tough response — nobody else gets that, dammit! — actually cost farmers a break that had been planned, but suddenly looked like another exemption.

The carbon tax, revealed as a purely political tool, is ripe for axing by a potential new leader like Mark Carney. Even New Democrats have argued that the tax should exit, stage left.

Now, Guilbeault has introduced amendments to the Impact Assessment Act, allegedly bringing it into line with the Supreme Court ruling that found the law seriously intrudes on powers rightly belonging to the provinces.

Trudeau’s power grabs shot down

Guilbeault has never acknowledged this was a defeat. He treats the ruling as a simple policy problem rather than a 5-2 thumping by judges not usually known for hostility to federal power grabs.

Alberta was predictably furious about the amendments. Premier Danielle Smith always said Guilbeault would make a gesture and proceed as usual, forcing yet another court challenge.

“When you look at the unconstitutionality of the first draft, you can’t just make tweaks and bring this in line with the Constitution,” says Rebecca Schulz, Alberta’s minister for environment and protected areas.

“That’s really the issue here. Minister Guilbeault still has the ability to involve himself in projects that are within provincial jurisdiction.

“In the end, this piece of legislation remains unconstitutional. We are going to be taking this back to court and I’m confident in our position, because their changes don’t actually address the issues that we’ve raised.”

The trouble is, legal uncertainty causes still more delays in building crucial projects. Ottawa imposed a ban on designating new major projects after the court ruling. It has been in effect for seven months.

Trudeau’s middle ground game not working

The Impact Assessment Agency, the powerful regulatory body that oversees all this, said in a statement: “No decisions to designate projects will be taken. Consideration of any new designation requests will only resume, as appropriate, once amended legislation is in force.”

Most striking is the fury from the climate action lobby toward Guilbeault’s amendments.

“Overall, the bill is a complete federal abdication to address proposed high-carbon projects such as in situ oil mines,” Steven Hazell, a retired environment lawyer and federal regulator told the National Observer, Canada’s best chronicler of climate stories and policy.

Green party Leader Elizabeth May said the government was “erring on the side of stupidity.” May sees the court decision as an opportunity to go further with legislation, not retreat to meet demands of provincial jurisdiction.

She’s the politician who believes the country should be put under virtual martial law to deal with the climate emergency, with all power to Ottawa. And those people are, more or less, the Liberals’ natural allies.That’s where Trudeau and his crew have got themselves as they race around, trying to find a murky middle ground on everything from climate action to taxation and Israel’s war against Hamas (no major religious group in Canada now favours the Liberals, according to a new poll from the Angus Reid Institute).Source: The Calgary Herald

Donald Trump Tried To Be a Little Gentler With Latino Voters At a Univision Town Hall.

Donald Trump

(VOR News) – In a more upbeat tone, former President Donald Trump spoke to Latino voters during a town hall meeting on Wednesday.

He boasted about his business accomplishments and wouldn’t back down from accusations that immigrants from Haiti were eating cats and dogs in Springfield, Ohio. These claims were untrue.

The Latino vote, which is thought to make up up to 15% of eligible voters and may be important in swing states like Arizona and Nevada, was a target for both political parties. Both candidates were vying for the support of Latino voters at the time of the Univision-sponsored town hall gathering.

In his speech to the Spanish-speaking audience, Donald Trump primarily addressed economic matters and claimed that Latinos had benefited more from his administration. The entire therapy lasted around an hour. He talked about the work he’s done, especially at his golf club in Doral, Florida, which is next to town hall.

Donald Trump vetoed a bipartisan asylum bill due to his immigration policies.

Jorge Velázquez, a California farmer, once asked President Trump who would be in charge of farming in the event that he followed through on his plan to deport millions of undocumented immigrants.

Donald Trump sidestepped the subject, concentrating instead on the atrocities perpetrated by immigration.

The entire therapy lasted around an hour. He talked about the work he’s done, especially at his golf club in Doral, Florida, which is next to town hall.

Conversely, visitors questioned Donald Trump about his immigration policies and the rationale for his veto of a bipartisan measure to tighten asylum regulations.

Jorge Velázquez, a California farmer, once asked President Trump who would be in charge of farming in the event that he followed through on his plan to deport millions of undocumented immigrants.

Donald Trump sidestepped the subject, concentrating instead on atrocities perpetrated by immigration.

He was also questioned over a border bill that both parties supported and that Donald Trump was purportedly interfering with to keep Congress from passing. “Daily I see the consequences of the migration flow,” said the woman who asked the question. She lives in one of Chicago’s suburbs.

Voters from Latin America are increasingly inclined to back Donald Trump.

Donald Trump has gained increased support from Hispanic voters, who had historically sided with Democrats, thanks to his economic appeal. Historically, Hispanic voters have favored Democrats.

Even with the progress, a sizable portion of Latino voters still have misgivings about him. A Republican audience member expressed concern about the events of January 6 during one of the exchanges and said he would like to give Trump another chance to try to earn back his vote.

Trump responded by saying that “the election, not me, is what brought the masses together.” Additionally, he called the rally’s assault on the US Capitol building a “day of love.”

On another occasion, Donald Trump was asked if he genuinely thought about the untrue rumor that neighbors’ dogs had been eaten by Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio. Local authorities have refuted this rumor.

This information was discovered recently. Following up, Trump said, “I was merely stating what was reported.” I’ll be there in the interim, and we can talk about it. A detailed report will be sent to you as soon as I get the chance.

The time had come, even if Vice President Harris, the Democratic opponent of Trump, had not yet attended her own town hall meeting with Univision. Less than a week had elapsed. Even though polls indicate that Trump has been able to reduce the Democratic Party’s historical advantage, it is still expected that the Democrats will win the Latino vote

Fox News Kamala Interview See Harris Blame Trump for Border Crisis
Vice President Harris on Wednesday sparred at length with Fox News anchor Bret Baier - File Image

On Wednesday, Vice President Kamala Harris engaged in an extensive discussion with Fox News anchor Bret Baier regarding immigration during a rare interview with the network.

The Fox News Kamala Interview kicked off  with Bret Baier by inquiring about the number of immigrants who had crossed the southern border under the Biden administration.

As Harris recognized that immigration was “a topic of discussion that people want to rightly have,” Baier interjected to point out that it was estimated at 10 million individuals.

Baier subsequently challenged Harris regarding the Biden administration’s choice to terminate a Trump-era policy that required potential asylum-seekers to remain in Mexico while awaiting the outcomes of their cases in U.S. immigration court.

Harris highlighted that the inaugural piece of legislation introduced by President Biden following his swearing-in was an immigration bill. Baier pointed out that the bill did not reach a vote, even with Democrats in control of both the House and Senate.

“From the very beginning, we understood that — regarding your first question — this is a top priority for our nation and the American people. Our attention has been directed towards addressing this issue,” Harris stated, highlighting the White House’s initiatives to enhance border resources, strengthen penalties for illegal crossings, and manage entry points effectively.

Kamala blames Trump

She attempted to hold former President Trump accountable for his opposition to a bipartisan border security proposal earlier this year, asserting that her opponent would “rather campaign on a problem than work towards a solution, and this election rightfully demands a discussion that the American people are eager to engage in.”

Baier emphasized the tragic cases of Rachel Nungaray, Laken Riley, and Rachel Morin—young women who were reportedly murdered by men who had entered the country unlawfully. “Should you apologize to those families?” Baier inquired.

“These are unfortunate situations.” It’s absolutely clear. It’s absolutely clear. “I cannot fathom the anguish that the families of those victims have endured due to a loss that was entirely preventable,” Harris stated.

“Indeed, that is accurate.” Had a border security bill been enacted nine months ago, we would have already seen an increase in border agents, providing much-needed support for those tirelessly working to maintain safety and prevent future harm.

“In just 20 days, this election will reveal whether we have a president who prioritizes solving issues over political gain,” she remarked, without offering any form of apology to the families.

Border crossing to hit 10 million

As the November election approaches, Trump is launching a vigorous campaign focused on immigration, with projections indicating that migrant crossings at the border could reach 10 million well before the year’s end under the Biden-Harris administration.

Trump has committed to implementing widespread deportations of individuals residing in the country unlawfully if he secures election in November, and he has indicated plans to rescind protected status for specific groups, including Haitian migrants.

He referred to Harris as the “border czar,” highlighting her responsibility in tackling the underlying issues driving migration from Central American countries. Trump has consistently pointed out cases of violent crimes carried out by migrants who have entered the country unlawfully.

A recent Wall Street Journal poll, conducted with 2,100 registered voters across seven key battleground states poised to influence the upcoming November election, revealed that 52 percent believe Trump is more capable of managing immigration and border security, while 36 percent favor Harris on this critical issue.

Joe Biden Is Adamant That Kamala Harris Would “Cut Her Own Path” In The US Election.

Published

on

Joe Biden

(VOR News) – In a statement that was made public on Tuesday, the Vice President of the United States, Joe Biden, made it very plain that Vice President Kamala Harris will “cut her own path” if she were to win the election in 2024.

This assertion was stated by Biden in a manner that was fairly forthright. In this particular instance, Biden made a remark.

The fact that there are only three weeks remaining until the day of the vote was taken into consideration when making this statement, which signaled a shift in focus from the previous declaration.

The Vice President of the United States, Joe Biden, was delivering a speech at the Sheet Metal Workers International Association in Philadelphia.

Joe Biden told the crowd that Senator Harris can offer new insights into the nation’s problems.

When asked about the ideas that former President Donald Trump cherished, Vice President Joe Biden made a fleeting nod to them, calling them “old, failed, and thoroughly dishonest.”

As a parallel to Trump, who has already served as President, he compared her approach to that of Trump. Trump has already held the job of president.

When it comes to the final weeks of the campaign, the statements that Biden has made give the idea that Harris will have more latitude to construct her own political identity within the context of the campaign. In light of the fact that Joe Biden has asserted that she will have increased discretion, this is the reason why this is taking place.

In spite of the fact that Harris has not wavered in her dedication to the president, she has not lost sight of the reality that she is committed to bringing about improvement in the situation.

Therefore, she has opted to proceed in this form, despite the fact that she has been exposed to an increasing degree of pressure to provide clarification regarding the ways in which her views will differ from those of Joe Biden.

There have been more instances in which Harris has declared, “I am not Joe Biden,” but she has not acknowledged any true policy distinctions in a straightforward manner regarding these differences. In addition to that, she has not disclosed any variations in these policies.

“Every president has to cut their own path,” Joe Biden, Vice President of the United States, said in response to a question regarding his own presidency. “Every president has to cut his own path.”

My actions were exactly the same as Joe Biden’s and Kamala’s!

I have successfully done it. I appreciate your involvement in this conversation. He assured the audience of his unwavering confidence in Harris’s ability to undertake the obligations of the future generation when he decided to transfer leadership to her.

This alleviated the anxieties raised by the crowd. Alongside commending Harris’s leadership and expressing faith in her capacity to guide the nation effectively, he also conveyed his assurance in her ability to navigate the country towards the achievement of her objectives.

In addition, Joe Biden took use of the opportunity to attack Trump, expressing his disdain for his refusal to acknowledge the results of the election that took place in 2020 and his willingness to encourage the violence that took place in the Capitol on January 6, 2021.

In response to Trump’s reluctance to acknowledge the results of the election, Vice President Joe Biden voiced his opposition.

He has only made a handful of public appearances in support of his campaign during the length of the years that have gone after Vice President Joe Biden withdrew from the race for the presidency in 2024. These appearances have been made in order to garner support for his campaign.

Having given a performance that was not very impressive during the discussion, he came to the conclusion that he would not be running for the election. Consequently, when he made the decision to withdraw from the campaign, his party put a great amount of pressure on him to give up his presidential candidacy. He declined to do so.
