What are we even doing here Canada?

I can’t go along with the recent budget, or the announcement of privatization of our public services (airports, etc), or a climate killing pipeline… I just can’t.

This isn’t how I expected things to go when voting the Liberals to avoid the Conservatives. Not like this.

I knew there was a risk we could end up with a centre-right Liberal government. But my God! How far has the window shifted.

Carney. I know you think this is the only way. But that’s because you are an elite, privileged, white, male economist. You wouldn’t understand there are many ways Canada can come together because you’ve only known your way.

I propose a compromise. Big Daddy C is doing his “job” in keeping Canada protected, the lights on, repairing the foundation, building relationships ala CRM. Ok, fine. But I think you need Mama G to run the actual country and care for its citizens. Someone with empathy, kindness, and understanding.

If you don’t set your ground rules, the “boys” will wreak havoc in your home, destroy your property, invite all their friends over and make off with your sheep. Literally they will create chaos amongst the provinces, destroy our public services, invite too much foreign investors and take all our natural resources.

You need a mother to keep the house in order, ensure everyone is fed and cared for and knows what the real problems are with Alberta and Quebec. She already does everything anyway, why not make her job official? She’ll regulate internet, when you can take the resources, just how much pie you can have, and will give you an accurate list of things to be fixed.

This isn’t some homage to the 50s or an insult to mothers – this is real. Real Canadian mothers are doing the work of keeping their families, their communities and Canadian society together. Trust that we know better than an economist who just arrived with a bag full of money and big dreams.

Real Canadian Mothers know the reality of the cost of living, making ends meet and who isn’t behaving.

So give us a go, eh? Create the Official Mother of Canada position and let a Real Canadian Mother take care of her home and country.

And don’t forget to take your shoes off.
