Trudeau's troubling policies are beginning to alarm thinking Canadians.It is becoming increasingly clear his priorities are out of synch with the majority of Canadians. We need to consider seriously making him and his government a one-term government
It is pretty much an axiomatic saying that you can tell an awful lot about someone by the friends they keep. With that in mind consider some of Justin Trudeau's friends and you can get a better idea where his policies are coming from.
Gerald Butts is probably Trudeau's closest political advisor. He is an old Trudeau university buddy who is now the senior political advisor to Trudeau and has had serious input into almost every policy Trudeau campaigned on before his election. Butts was the principal author of former Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty's bankrupting green energy policies. It was his idea for a "positive message" that helped McGuinty win in Ontario and Justin Trudeau throughout his own campaign borrowed McGuinty's victory speech words that voters had "rejected the politics of division." Butts is an anti-energy environmental activist who is okay with running deficits which is why Ontario continues to struggle to reduce its debts and has been downgraded by Moody's to "negative." Trudeau campaigned on running “modest deficits” but the National Bank said the deficit could actually reach ninety billion by the end of Trudeau's term.
