In a brutal takedown of Canada’s political implosion, Victor Davis Hanson explains how the so-called nationalist candidate is a citizen of three countries, a former Goldman Sachs banker, and a UN climate crony — and that’s who Canadians now want leading them? Meanwhile, Pierre Poilievre, the only candidate with a pulse on Canada’s decline, lost everything — his seat, his party, and the future.
“He’s a citizen of nowhere,” Hanson says. “And this is your symbol of national pride?”
This video dives deep into the myth of Canadian exceptionalism, the Trudeau legacy of stagnation and bloated bureaucracy, and the reality that record numbers of skilled Canadians are fleeing to the U.S. — because their own system is broken beyond repair.
And when Trump suggests Canada is freeloading on trade and defense? Hanson says: he's not wrong. Fertilizer? Timber? Car parts? “We can do all that ourselves,” he argues. America doesn’t need Canada — but Canada might not survive without America.
This is about more than politics — it's about sovereignty, hypocrisy, and hard economic truth.
If you're tired of spin and ready for facts, buckle up. Victor doesn’t hold back.
