Joining us now is Victoria Coates, vice president of national security and foreign policy at the Heritage Foundation. So, Victoria, quite a bit of chaos happening in Canada. First off, Krista Freeland, Canada's finance minister, resigned this past week. How significant is that and what does her departure suggest about the internal fractures within the Liberal Party?
It's a really chaotic situation, and your listeners will be forgiven. There are so many. We have South Korea, we have Japan, we have Germany, we have France. All of these governments are sort of falling into chaos, largely because their populations feel that the governments are not responding to the issues that are important to them, and particularly in Canada.
You know, Prime Minister Trudeau, who has been the card-carrying poster child for a woke liberal agenda, very extreme policies on immigration, on gender issues, all of these things has become deeply unpopular to the point of 23% popularity, which is pretty bad.
And as you said, Krista Freeland, their finance minister and deputy prime minister, has resigned essentially based on the catastrophic economic situation. And I think you're seeing the Liberal Party really fall apart What is the catastrophic financial situation in Canada?
Well, I think this has all come from very liberal economic policies of Prime Minister Trudeau, where the currency is depreciating dramatically. He is prioritizing DEI issues, for example, going very heavily into an extreme green agenda, all of which is disastrous for Canada's economy. Bear in mind, Canada is one of the world's great energy producers globally. quietly behind the scenes.
