This guy destroyed lives during COVID. He locked down the country, crushed small businesses, separated families, and pushed vaccine mandates that forced people to choose between their jobs and their personal health decisions. He called people “fringe” and demonized anyone who dared to question his authority. And when truckers stood up for their rights, he went full dictator—freezing bank accounts, calling in police, and treating working-class people like criminals.
Justin’s resignation is long overdue, but it’s not enough. Every leader who treated their people like second-class citizens during COVID needs to be held accountable. They can’t just walk away from the damage they caused. People suffered, and it wasn’t “for our safety.” It was about control, plain and simple.
Leaders like Gavin Newsom, Jacinda Ardern, Emmanuel Macron, Andrew Cuomo, Kathy Hochul, and Gretchen Whitmer are all cut from the same cloth. They imposed destructive lockdowns and mandates, wrecked economies, and crushed the lives of everyday people, all while living comfortably above the rules they forced on everyone else.
These clowns abused their power. They locked down schools, caused mental health crises, and destroyed livelihoods under the guise of “keeping people safe.” Meanwhile, they ignored the science they claimed to follow and played politics with our lives.
It wasn’t just about Covid with Trudeau, though. Bari Weiss broke down all his issues in her latest piece in The Free Presstoday. In her piece, she wrote about how Trudeau’s tenure sparked widespread discontent across Canada. It was driven mainly by his horrible economic policies, costly programs, and runaway spending that left Canadians poorer. His carbon tax and ineffective social programs have made things worse for Canadians, and rising youth unemployment and controversial immigration levels have fueled frustration. Violent crime has increased, and his harm reduction approach to justice has drawn criticism for leniency. Under his government, censorship has tightened, antisemitism has grown, and drug and assisted suicide policies have faced backlash for their dire consequences.
We need to remember what they did and make sure it never happens again. Don’t let them rewrite history. Don’t let them off the hook. And don’t ever let fear give politicians a blank check to abuse their power.
