Europe is ahead of Canada rejecting a borderless one government world

in #alberta5 years ago

Across Europe voters are rejecting the EU and globalism.In just a few weeks the yellow vest protests have done much to wreck Macron's vision of a globalist utopia.

The act of protest tells elected officials you do not like a war, a policy, or a tax.


Through protest the yellow vest movement has extracted many concessions from little Emanuel Macron. Macron promised some tax reductions, a rise in the minimum wage, and other measures. None of his concessions satisfied those he had earlier called "thugs." Protestors clearly say these moves as attempts to buy them off and make them go away.

As I've written before, these grassroots protests demand nothing less than the resignation of Macron and a repudiation of the the globalist agenda by the government.

Europe is ahead of Canada in its rejection of a borderless one government world. However, even in these chaotic times, protest remains an inherent right of citizens living in western liberal democracies. Protest is a default condition of being free of control by the state.

At one time not so very long ago we would, roughly speaking, recognize others’ take on contemporary issues and that by airing these differences in public we could over time work it out directly or, through public institutions and the ballot box.
After all, the act of civil discourse is integral to us, our ancestors and societies, making it out of the Dark Ages to see this today. The exchange of ideas is how rational people get to better ideas and solve problems.

Wanting to not be overlooked leaders and politicians actively sought out discussion, differences, ideas, and in earnest tried to figure a common denominator with which, more or less, to salve the concern of the involved parties.

That was, like I said earlier, how things used to be resolved decades ago. At least this was the visible public side reported by a then more diligent news media. Sure, it was often a winner take all resolution—put another way; problem solving generally sided with the majority. For the involved parties this was axiomatic; win some, lose some, you move on.

My proceeding points are not in any way to be thought as dismissing such high-water societal battles as, say, the American civil rights movement of the 60s. I’m not going to wade into specific historical events. I just want to attempt a broader over-arching analogy.

So this is where I point out that most physical protests, the loud disruptive kind are most often waged from the Left, from, say, organized labour. They are looking for more not less state intervention in the marketplace.

We hear of the same demands year to year, generation to generation: hike welfare payments; broader free healthcare; higher salaries for government and unionized workers.

For the most part such protests have tended to seek answers from within the entrenched political structures of the day. Appeals are made to the right or left, opposition and government, to stand-up for blah-blah-blah.

In the 2009 book, “Empire of Illusion” author Chris Hedges argues,

“The more we sever ourselves from a literate, print-based world, a world of complexity and nuance, a world of ideas, for one informed by comforting, reassuring images, fantasies, slogans, celebrities, and a lust for violence, the more we are destined to implode …”
Yes, the implosion of our safe stable liberal democracies is exactly the goal of the European Union and the United Nations.

Erasing sovereign borders is a keystone of such wannabe overlords and they make no effort to disguise their intentions.

I mean, the open secret is buried in the title of the recently celebrated Global Compact on Safe, Orderly, and Regular Migration.

This is the hubris of unaccountable bureaucrats armed with a plan to forever change your sleepy safe small town in every country. Oh, sorry, I made an error and should have written “… in every democratic country.”

The past few decades, roughly speaking, have seen no shortage of hyperbole over gun control; open borders, and censorship.

Neo-Marxists, Neo-Liberals, fellow travelers, and fully embedded legacy media sock-puppets now rage for more government. The very nature of protest has transmogrified and demands for, essentially, more government—well, more government force—to be brought against them.

Here in Canada we have not escaped the growth of a bloated government-class, an elitist class of urban dwellers, and a media floating in a sea of taxpayer cash as the Trudeau Regime never tires of plotting more intrusions into every nook and cranny of our lives.

Canada, some might say is edging toward police state territory.

The middle-class appears to be shrinking. That means more people with less; less employment, less savings, and less mobility. The remaining middle-class, already paying the greatest chunk of taxes is burdened with more, always more.

Very much like French workers, and German, British, Italian, Greek wage earners Canadians are being financially decimated.

Wait! It gets worse. The country, in my opinion, has yet to feel the impact of 2015-2018 federal spending programs. Prime Minister Justin “Socks” Trudeau, by the time he leaves office after October’s federal election, will have racked up somewhere in the $60B-$80B neighborhood in budget deficits.

You will want to buckle-up for the looming return of regular interest rate increases.

Millennials are in for a shock.

They’ve never known anything but a low interest economy. Therefore, their reality has, although not in isolation of contemporary western culture, been nurtured by next-to-free money.

The pain will be severe; trips to Starbucks will suffer major cut-backs. Expect the phrase, ‘Venti Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino,’ to fall into near disuse.

Generations of Canadians will pay for the globalist regime of Justin Trudeau and his fondness for exporting our future—literally; in the form of borrowed money, debt—to numerous despotic hellholes in, fore most part Africa.

Simultaneously, far away from the gentrified très-cool eyries of bureaucrats, elites, and verbose cable news personalities towards the margins of normal society, for so long ignored by the chattering classes, people started to wake up.

Wage-earners more than others, looking at their stagnant and shrinking pay cheques saw the globalists taking more and more.

Wage-earners across Europe increasingly attributed the source of their growing poverty with globalism. So it began that the ubiquitous demands globalists; corporations; banks; quasi-national organizations of unelected openly aided by progressivist politicians that the seeds of the Yellow Vest movement were sown.

The reality is not different in other western countries. Canada is no exception.


Globalists are the source of the problem. Look at it in reverse by reframing that statement, just flip it around to see that it is anti-sovereignists, anti-nationalists are wrecking western democratic countries.

“The worse reality becomes, the less a beleaguered population wants to hear about it, and the more it distracts itself with squalid pseudo-events of celebrity breakdowns, gossip and trivia. These are the debauched revels of a dying civilization.” Chris Hedges in Empire of Illusion

The push-back against the globalist onslaught will only continue to grow.

Indeed, back in December of 2018, a Facebook group called “Yellow Vests Canada” declared it had 75,000 members. The person posting identified their mission as being, “to protest” the Carbon Tax and the treason of Canada’s politicians who, “have the audacity to sell” the country’s sovereignty over to the globalist UN “and their tyrannical policies.” Since then there have been numerous protests across Canada, more will follow.

Interestingly, and this will surprise only those still reliant on the legacy-media for facts, is that some seventy-percent of French citizens are fully sympathetic with the "gilets jaunes" anti-government demonstrations.

I have no idea what a comparable poll in Canada would reveal (and would we have faith in any such polls). I would suggest that the Canadian version is a combination of anti-Trudeau, anti-socialism, and anti-globalist sentiment. But, hey, I could be wrong.

Since 2015 the Canadian resource sector has been hammered.

Notley and Trudeau teamed up to destroy not just jobs, but a profitable industry. Add to that mix the fact we too have seen no real growth in wages, new and higher taxes, and creeping inflation.

Albertans are the biggest victims of a decade of foreign funded anti-pipeline activists. Don’t doubt the meticulous research of Viviane Kraus, she has the facts, tells the truth at Fair Question.com. But at the same time Canadian sovereignty has been ceded to powerful groups, allowing them to essentially dictate domestic energy policy:

Your premier [Alberta's Notley] put a cap on the oilsands,” Krause reminded the attentive crowd. “That’s exactly what the Rockefeller Fund funded the activists to do, was to pressure the government to put that cap on.” Viviane Krause
Globalists are not patriots.

We see the moneyed class and the ruling elites who wish to dictate how we live, grow rich as they increase their disregard for—and physical distance from—wage earners, forgotten working people.

When UK workers voted for Brexit, globalists were stunned. This was the people paying the freight standing up and saying with one voice “enough!”

Despite the Remain side campaign citing job loss and lower wage prospects upon leaving the EU, British citizens choose to stand for sovereignty, society, and family. No yellow vests, but an anti-globalist protest just the same.

Returning to what I said earlier about protests, I want to make two of points: First, for the most part, protests of our day have looked to the entrenched political structures for relief. Second, both Brexit and the yellow vest protests are apolitical and expressly want solutions to problems from outside of the current political paradigm.

In Canada we hear both Canadian and international legacy-media dismiss such protests as coming from a small group of trouble-makers, the alt-right, violent nationalists, and that Brexit was advanced by angry old men.

They want to scoff at the PPC. A heavily government funded media-party dismisses Max Bernier as a sore loser to Andrew Scheer in the Conservative Party leadership contest.

These groups and others believe the current system is the only system that will benefit them in some way. For some inside such groups finding the ideas appealing, they don’t or can’t speak up for fear of being ejected by their contemporaries, disowned by business connections, and we know the possibly abrupt unemployment hangs in the air like the sword of Damocles.

In Canada as across the Atlantic in France there exists opportunity for abundant change. Those scary national populists the fading dinosaur media never tires of demonizing have been winning election after election across Europe.

In Germany, in 2017 the upstart Alternative for Germany (AfD) won some 12% of the vote, Matteo Salvini head of Lega Nord (Northern League) is referred to as Italy’s Trump, and most recently in Brazil nationalist candidate Jair Bolsonaro is now president. Expect to see Marine Le Pen rise to the top in Frances next election cycle.

Fighting the Eurocrats in Brussels, the Remainers in the UK, carbon taxes in France or open borders in the USA and the 24/7 flow of illegal migrants into Canada it all boils down to one common theme: citizens demand a say, they demand control of their lives, their neighborhood, their country and are snatching it away from the tyranny of the few over the many.
Make no mistake; this is not a Right versus Left battle as those ideas are ancient history, obsolete, and only serve to keep you choosing from the same old menu of stale ideological choices.

Beyond sound-bite politics what really binds a people together is culture. Culture is by definition populist because it has been nurtured over generations as a critical part in the structure and continuation of a society. In order to survive an organism must evolve and build on what gives it life, or wither and die, societies are no different.

Populism is not new; it is just getting its voice back. As Roger Eatwell and Matthew Goodwin note in their recent book, “National Populism: The Revolt Against Liberal Democracy,

“National populism, in whatever form, will have a powerful effect on the politics of many Western countries for many years to come.” (292)
And so the recipe for victory over the tyranny of the globalist agenda, the European Union, a radical United Nations requires what has been called retraditionalization; a process of returning to Western cultural values of family,

Nationalism offers the individual choices, rather than mass conformity.

By rejecting the globalists’ vision for more secularization of society and bringing together ideas from many areas Canadians experience we have a wonderful opportunity to take back our Canada.

In Canada, for Canadians when Max Bernier says, “We want to attract people from all parties also like the NDP,” take his words as an appeal to what is good, not from obsolete party doctrines, certainly not from hardcore ideologues, but to the inherent goodness of human values such as trust and truth grounded in three keystone ingredients required to create a country: borders, language, and culture.

Europe is already ahead of us in this rejection of a borderless one government world.

Globalists are more desperate than ever to flip Canada, just like Obama and Hillary came so close to flipping America.

By working together we can stop them, but we must work together for one Canada.
