It requires a lot of persistence and attention to detail to screw things up as badly as these people have—almost as if failure was the intended outcome. You’d think, at some point, sheer probability would allow them to get something right accidentally, but no, they remain laser-focused on setting new records for incompetence.
Every major policy decision seems to be a masterclass in how not to govern. Consider their economic strategy—or rather, their complete lack of one. Inflation is spiralling, affordability is a crisis, and yet their solution is to throw more taxpayer money at the problem as if setting piles of cash on fire will somehow warm the economy. Raising taxes while telling struggling families, “Everything will be better when we implement free birth control or $10 daycare,” is the kind of detached arrogance only a Liberal government could achieve.
And then there’s their stellar record on fiscal responsibility. When they’re not increasing their own paychecks (because clearly, they’ve earned it), they’re signing off on vanity projects and taxpayer-funded disasters that nobody asked for. Millions get funneled into consultants, pet projects, and bureaucratic expansions while actual working Canadians see fewer services, higher costs, and more red tape. It’s not that they don’t understand how budgets work—it seems they have this crazy notion that budgets balance themselves.
Now, let’s talk about the ridiculous carbon tax. They claim it’s about saving the planet, but in reality, it’s just another way to squeeze more money out of hardworking Canadians. Canada’s total emissions account for just 2% of global CO2 output, meaning this tax has no meaningful impact on global emissions. Meanwhile, the world’s biggest polluters, like China and India, continue expanding their carbon output without a second thought. So what exactly are Canadians paying for? It’s nothing more than a virtue tax—a symbolic gesture that isn’t working. Instead of tackling real environmental challenges, they punish ordinary citizens. Gas, groceries, and home heating costs keep rising, all so the government can pat itself on the back for solving a problem they have no ability to influence.
And then there’s their response to political accountability—rather than face the heat, they just prorogue Parliament. In the middle of economic uncertainty, global instability, and a growing number of domestic crises, their solution is to shut down debate and dodge scrutiny. It’s almost impressive how quickly they scramble for the escape hatch whenever tough questions arise. Why govern when you can simply hit pause and hope people forget? A responsible government would meet challenges head-on, but this one treats democratic accountability like an inconvenience. Apparently, transparency and leadership are optional when you can just put Parliament on ice and call it a day.
Of course, let’s not forget their handling of basic governance. Need infrastructure projects completed on time and on budget? Good luck. Want government services that actually work? Keep dreaming. Think they’ll take responsibility when they fail? Don’t hold your breath. Everything is someone else’s fault—global factors, opposition parties, or “unexpected challenges” (which are only unexpected if you refuse to plan ahead).
What’s truly impressive is that no matter how bad things get, they always find a way to make them worse. Competence at this level of failure requires dedication. It takes real effort to make every decision actively harmful to the average Canadian. And yet, they persist, doubling down, avoiding accountability, and offering vague platitudes while the country suffers the consequences.
At some point, you have to wonder: Is this sheer incompetence, or is it the plan all along?
