I’ve been around here for about a year now, and I have learned so much. I cannot begin to thank all of you who put so much thought, effort and time into this awakening. For the majority of my time here the focus of GAW, understandably, has been the USA (where I was born and spent the majority of my life to date); we fill pages with subjects like Trump, the 2020 election, Devolution, etc., and have great discussions. But with the events of the last several days, which have turned so much of the focus towards Canada (where I have lived now for almost 20 years), I’ve begun to realize something. It was after I read a comment here this morning pertaining to how one of Trump’s EOs plays into all the things we are seeing happen now. And I suddenly realized - it doesn’t seem as though Canada (or any other Nation, for that matter) has a “Trump”: someone who champions for their Freedoms. I guess that’s why I always thought the first “action” would come from the States. I think we were all surprised (and thrilled) about the truckers - but it doesn’t seem that there are any Canadians with clout who have their backs - no “authority figure” standing in the gap between them and the vile smears of Canadian leadership. Isn’t there anybody who isn’t completely corrupt in this country? Trudope is in extreme attack mode, and the leadership and MSM are falling right in line to disparage the truckers and those supporting them as every kind of “ist” adjective they can dream up. They have completely silenced the stated intention of the event, and the people involved. They’re calling it a “unlawful assembly” because 3 people were arrested over the weekend. How many arrests do you think they normally have on a weekend in a city as large as Ottawa? So, does anyone stand in the gap for Canada? Who do we look to when we need someone to speak out against the lies? Who do other Nations look to? I know God will stand with the righteous against these evil *#^%s, but I feel discouraged that there doesn’t seem to be a single Canadian leader who hasn’t filed into line in the parade behind the emperor who’s wearing no clothes.

Don't feel bad. Canada and most western developed countries are structured towards consensus. America institutionalized conflict and rebellion to a greater degree than other countries, in everything from our court system to our business landscape. Canada and W Europe razzed us for years about our litigious nature, crime and punishment rates, and lack of centralized healthcare, among other things. But the flip side is that our rough-and-tumble king-of-the-hill society has produced a Trump. As a nation, we've been blessed to inherit such a system from its founders. And within that blessing, we are again blessed to be in this generation in which Trump came to champion our cause. He's a once-in-a-generation guy at the right time for all of us.
Also today, aside from Trump, we don't have any other Trump figures either.
In the meantime, it looks like salt-o-the-earth blue-collar Canucks are doing the country proud. Do what you can where you are. Every town and neighborhood needs someone.
