QUESTION: Marty, Socrates seems to be pointing to a C$ bounce. Does this imply that Carney will lose, or does it mean the bounce will be brief on his nonsense and then turn south?

RE

CAN Rt Combine 2025
CAN LF Combine 2024 1

ANSWER: The only hope that Carney has is a coalition. Comparing the Conservatives to the Liberals in Canada provides an interesting picture. Trudeau was able to be the leader of Canada with 32% of the vote. The computer clearly shows that Carney will beat Justin Trudeau, who was first elected as Prime Minister of Canada on October 19, 2015, and served until his recent resignation in January 2025. He led the Liberal Party to victory in three federal elections during his tenure. In 2015, he had 39.47% of the vote. Then in 2019, he won with 33.1%. Then in 2021, he won with 32.6% while the Conservatives beat him with 33.7%. This is the problem with a Parliamentary system – it allows fragmentation and coalitions.

2025_04_28 Truth_Social Trump on Canadian Election

Trump threw his 2 cents into the ring on Truth Social. That could help Carney. Canada would never become the 51st state. Each province would become a separate state, and that would mean each gets two senators, and they could join the Democrats and kill the US economy with their EQUALITY that has killed Canadian productivity. Canada’s once-thriving economy is now facing severe challenges, from a housing bubble that has pushed debt beyond GDP to a massive brain drain of skilled workers. With real estate prices climbing over 300% in two decades while wages lag far behind, homeownership is slipping further out of reach for most Canadians. At the same time, Canada’s productivity is declining, with the average worker producing 30% less than their U.S. counterpart. With rising discontent, increasing financial strain, and a lack of strong leadership. This has led to the question of how much longer Canada can hold on before a major economic crisis?

In the last election, the Conservatives beat Trudeau with 33.7% vs 32.6%. To get a majority, they need 172 seats. The Liberals will most likely carry the East – Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Quebec, and Ontario. This election could ignite the separation fires burning beneath the surface in the West. Our model warns that it was the completion of a 72-year cycle in the 2021 election for the Liberals, and that should be the low point. They have a fighting chance this time and will beat Trudeau’s numbers.

We still have the risk of war in May. Germany has just instructed Zelensky not to agree to any peace deal with Trump. The key level will become 7225 in the future, going into May.

US Customs Can Search Social Media History

Countless nations have increased their customs requirements as the freedom of movement slowly becomes restricted. The European Union now requires ETIAS for entry. The United Kingdom now requires an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA). The United States has recently made headlines for enforcing stricter border patrol, but the stories are extremely misleading and intended to paint the United States as increasingly authoritarian under the Trump Administration.

The US Embassy in Tokyo announced that Japanese individuals applying for a DS-160 or nonimmigrant visa may need to submit their social media accounts. Travelers may be asked to submit any form of social media they’ve used during the past five years. The US government can deny entry to anyone who fails to comply with the requirements. This has produced misleading reports that the US government is specifically targeting Japanese travelers, but the government has the authority to search anyone from any nation, including US citizens.

The US Department of State (DOS) and the US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) began conducting limited social media account reviews for visa applicants and immigrants in 2019, although these searches are rare. Border Patrol has the right to inspect the electronic devices of any traveler. However, this was not a requirement for entry.

“We are looking solely for social media identifiers. Consular officers will not request user passwords. The information will be used, as all information provided during a visa interview and on the visa application, to determine if the applicant is eligible for a visa under existing U.S. law. Collecting this additional information from visa applicants will strengthen our process for vetting applicants and confirming their identity,” the FAQ’s on the updated 2019 guidelines stated. “Consular officers cannot deny visas based on applicants’ race, religion, ethnicity, national origin, political views, gender, or sexual orientation,” the original guidelines state. One must question whether political views will be ignored in 2025.

“Any traveler entering the U.S. is subject to CBP inspection,” CBP Assistant Commissioner Hilton Beckham said in a statement to USA TODAY. “CBP follows strict policies and directives when it comes to searching electronic media. These searches are rare, highly regulated, and have been used in identifying and combating serious crimes, including terrorism, smuggling, human trafficking, and visa fraud. Any claims of politically motivated searches are completely unfounded.”

Additionally, the United States is NOT the only nation that can search through social media accounts. The European Travel Information and Authorization System (ETIAS) outright asks travelers to submit their social media history. Social media information is now required for visa-free travel authorization under ETIAS. Actual searches at the border are thought to be less common because the governments already have that information.

The Tokyo embassy’s report led to numerous Japanese travelers angrily taking to the internet to claim that they will never travel to the United States, as they are being specifically targeted. It is fake news. The media is keen to run any story regarding travelers turned away at the US border, but nearly all of those cases are the result of improper documentation. We never hear stories of Americans turned away at foreign borders, but it happens every day. You cannot enter a foreign nation without proper documentation — end of story. Legacy media is attempting to mislead the world into believing the United States is a dangerous nation under a fascist dictator who is eager to deport anyone without a red MAGA hat to El Salvador. It is all absolute nonsense. There should be far more concern regarding the new ETIAS and ETA programs if anything.

California Becomes World’s Fourth Largest Economy

California

California recently surpassed Japan to become the World’s fourth-largest economy behind the United States, China, and Germany. The International Monetary Fund believes California’s nominal GDP is $4.1 trillion, surpassing Japan’s $4.01 trillion.

While many businesses have fled California due to excessive taxation and regulation, it remains the home of 57 Fortune 500 companies, which is more than any other state in the US. Apple, Alphabet (Google), Chevron, Meta, Nvidia, Netflix, Molina, Qualcomm, Intel, and others have headquarters in the Golden State. While five Fortune 500 companies departed from California last year, it gained 9 new entrants.

California has attracted over 40% of US venture capital, becoming the home of many startups in AI and biotech. In Q1 of 2024, 59.25% of all new US venture capital was raised in California, up from 37.9% on an annual basis. Startups in California generated $20.9 billion in Q1 of 2024, the highest quarterly total on record. For 2024 as a whole, California claimed 48.79% of the nation’s venture capital, raising over $43 billion.

California dreaming

Tourism is another money maker for the state, raking in $156.7 billion in 2024, a 4% annual increase and an all-time high. International spending on tourism generated $27.8 billion as the state has finally recovered from the post-pandemic dip in travel. Domestic spending accounted for $129 billion in tourism last year, a 4% annual uptick. California’s tourism sector alone provides 1.15 million jobs.

Agriculture is a major cornerstone of the state’s economy as well. Over 40% of the state’s land is used for farming, totaling 40 million acres, including 8.5 million irrigated acres. The state heavily relies on migrant workers to maintain these farmlands, leading to political differences with Washington. California produces 75% of America’s fruits and nuts, and 40% of vegetables. The Golden State generated $59.4 billion from agriculture in 2023. The state directs 40% of its water usage to farmlands, and water usage will become a key item to consider going forward.

“California isn’t just keeping pace with the world — we’re setting the pace. Our economy is thriving because we invest in people, prioritize sustainability, and believe in the power of innovation,” Governor Gavin Newsom said in a statement. “While we celebrate this success, we recognize that our progress is threatened by the reckless tariff policies of the current federal administration. California’s economy powers the nation, and it must be protected,” he added.

Newsom believes the US economy will shrink by $100 billion annually as a result of tariffs. California is suing the Trump administration to overturn tariffs, along with Arizona, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Maine, Minnesota, New York, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, and Vermont. Newsome is suing the Trump Administration for its deportation efforts as well, as his state’s economy needs migrants for its agriculture sector. California has launched its own tourism marketing campaign geared toward Canadians to separate the state from the federal government.

California Three

California also hosts the largest deficit of all US states. It relies heavily on Washington for financial support. If California were to secede, it would not be a utopia. It would be a fragmented region with massive capital flight, internal divisions (North vs. South California). Not to mention, the state does not have a military or currency of its own. Still, California’s strengthening economy and desire to separate itself from Washington will result in louder chants for succession and independence.

Mexico Launches Employment Program

Mexico_President_Claudia_Sheinbaum

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has launched a new employment program as the nation braces for thousands to return home amid America’s deportation campaign.  BBVA Research believes there are around 4.1 Mexican nationals illegally residing in the US, accounting for around 37% of the total undocumented population. Sheinbaum’s new proposal has been met with much criticism by the Mexican people, as they believe the government abandoned rural areas long ago.

The Conexión Empresarial Paisano platform is listing 63,880 new job openings through 220 companies across all 32 states. The current plan is to provide 50,000 of these new openings to people deported or willing to return from the United States. “Mexico wants them to know they are welcome and that they can find dignified, well-paying work,” said Francisco Cervantes Díaz, president of the CCE, to Síntesis.

Salaries are pennies in comparison to US minimum wage, although the cost of living in Mexico is drastically less. Operational roles will begin with a monthly salary between $424 and $843, while tech jobs will earn between $800 and $1,600 monthly. The average cost of living in Mexico for a single person is around $1,300 per month, according to some estimates, with a family of four averaging a bit beneath $3,000. One-bedroom rentals range from $329-$563 monthly, while a three-bedroom could cost upward of $990. Naturally it is cheaper to live outside major cities, as monthly housing costs in places like Monterrey or Mexico City are much higher.

It is clear to see why people fled Mexico for a better life in the United States, with even the lowest paying part-time jobs offering more. Based on 2024 data from BBVA Research, 35% of Mexicans fell in the “working poor” category, which is a historic low. Yet, in 2022 43.5% of the population lived in poverty. The average person earns a mere $373 monthly or 7,441 pesos.

It will be difficult for someone earning a living in the US on the USD to return to a nation offering a fraction of the pay in pesos. Millions were sending dollars back to their families in Mexico, aiding the Mexican economy in general. People are justifiably upset that the government is now offering jobs to people who have already chosen to flee the nation, believing this is merely political virtue signaling.

Zelensky the Destroyer of Europe


Posted originally on Apr 28, 2025 by Martin Armstrong 

Zelensky Pushing EU Over the Edge

The Failure of the London peace talks last Week was a critical defining moment. The “peace talks,” which were meant to take place in London on Wednesday, April 23, 2025, collapsed as US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Steve Wytkoff cancelled their attendance. Instead, Wytkoff headed for Moscow for his fourth meeting with Vladimir Putin. This was indeed what some will refer to as a watershed moment for European powers, demonstrating that they are not about to lure Trump into supporting their war of conquest and vengeance against Russia for the days of the Bolsheviks.

Zelensky meet Trump at Vatican 4 25 25

Zelensky now knows that he cannot play Trump as a fool. Now he has cleverly tried to con Trump into still creating World War III by changing the label again. He met with Trump at the Vatican for the Pope’s funeral. Zelensky’s new scheme is to get NATO protection without being a member of NATO. His proposal is now that he could not join NATO, which will provide the security guarantees with pretend peace-keepers against future Russian aggression, when this entire war began with Ukrainian aggression against the Russians in the Donbas.

Merkel_Minsk_Buy_Time_to Prepare for wart

The solution has always been to honor the Minsk Agreement, which Merkel and France intentionally lied about when they negotiated, playing Putin for a fool while Ukraine built an army. Honor that peace agreement, and 1.1 million Ukrainians would still be alive today, and 8 million would not have had to flee their country.

Putin even tried to explain the importance of the Minsk Agreement to avoid conflict. Zelensky understood that he was throwing his country into the meat-grinder all on the orders of the Neocons and NATO, who he now says they acknowledge he cannot join NATO, so they will provide the same protection just as a security guarantee without membership.

Yogoslavia_map_of_breakup

Allow the Donbas to vote and separate, as took place in former Yugoslavia, also resulting in countless deaths in the Kosovo War. It was the West that lied and wanted this war, pretending that they were defending Ukraine’s territory, which they could have also said about the breakup of Yugoslavia. Why not oppress all those ethnic groups to stay together?

Bismark on Balkans 1

It was former German Chancellor Otto von Bismarck (1815-1898) who in 1888 foretold of a coming great world war that would “come out of some damned foolish thing in the Bakans.” The ethnic hatreds in this entire region are insoluble.

Ukraine Map

Ukraine MUST be divided like Yugoslavia, or there will NEVER be peace. Zelenksy is playing Trump as the fool all over again. He does not propose NATO’s Article 5 protection, but he did express optimism that there could be guarantees that were like the protection it offers. Trump between not just count his fingers shaking hands with this piece of shit determined to create World War III and the NATO protection as Article-5-like guarantees would still bring all of NATO into Ukraine if it is still not a member. You cannot trust Zelensky or any of the EU leaders, including Starmer.

Trump – you cannot be this stupid!!

The EU was hoping to get Trump to fund the insane war against Russia, as they are building their military in preparation for what will become World War III, the same strategy they pulled with the Minsk Agreement to buy time for Ukraine to create an army. This time, it is an EU army. The phrase “Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me” is attributed to Anthony Weldon, who wrote about it in his 1651 book, “The Court and Character of King James.” The saying emphasizes the importance of learning from past mistakes to avoid being deceived again. They are playing both Trump and Putin for fools once again.

Starmer Kier UK PM

Starmer, Macron, and Zelensky were hoping to fool Trump into providing an open-ended security guarantee for a Zelensky regime while Europe bought time to create its EU Army. They honestly think they are clever and more intelligent than everyone else. Moreover, they were seeking to defraud the United States with Ukraine’s rare earths pretense promising to sign some deal with Trump when last January 16th, 2025 Keir Starmer flew into Kiev and signed a 100-year partnership with Kiev worth £3 billion a year indefinitely while Zelensky signed over the bulk of Ukraine’s resources and infrastructure capital to British interests – not American. The deal was part of this idea of resurrecting Europe to rise against as the leader of the world, as if they were Charlemagne trying to revive the old Roman Empire.

Caution_street_sign

The deal was supposed to boost London’s financial markets. However, as always, they expect the USA to fund the expenses while they reap the profits. Even Boris Johnson explained, without the US security guarantee, “not a penny can flow from this investment.” Indeed, Starmer also confirmed that the “US backstop is vital” for London to reap the profits, which would include rare earths that they would then mark up and sell to the USA. As Marco Rubio explained, “President Trump isn’t going to take that. He’s not going to get gamed. He hopes Zelensky isn’t trying to hustle the United States; that’s not going to be productive here.” This is an outright fraud against the United States.

Of course, Zelensky is a Neonazi and he gets his instructions from the Neocons and London. He pretended to be Christian and joked about confiscating the assets of Russians and Jews. He announced he was suddenly Jewish ONLY after he became president.

2025_03_25_09_05_50_When_Genocide_Is_Caught_on_Film_The_New_York_Times_1b4c95

This is what the Ukrainians were doing to Jews. They killed the woman and threw her child into a grave alive, so they did not waste bullets on Jewish Children. This is what Zelensky would joke about on stage before becoming president.

These horrible world leaders, willing to sacrifice their own people for personal hatreds, should be in prison. They think that they are smarter than Trump. Sorry to say – he is not Biden! Playing Trump for the fool, both Britain and France had to back off from sending in their peace-keeping troops to Ukraine, which would have protected this deal of strip-mining Ukraine. So now they have revised their scheme to get Trump to agree to NATO protection in an Article-5-like proposal, which they will still use to blame Putin as the aggressor, so they can strip-mine Russia, or so they believe.

Russian 75 Trillion in assets

They have also played Putin for the fool, assuming he, too, is stupid and would agree to their terms. At the same time, they build a European army to achieve their ultimate goal of conquering Russia and gaining the $75 trillion in assets that Russia has in natural resources. Getting their hands on that, they believe, will elevate Europe to rule the world since that is twice the value of the US national debt.

Charlemagne-3

Upon the death of Pepin, Charlemagne (768-814 AD) became king of the Franks in 768 AD, initially as co-ruler with his brother Carloman I. However, Carloman suddenly died unexpectedly and unexplained in December 771, conveniently leaving Charlemagne as the sole ruler of the Frankish Kingdom. He then began to expand his empire, conquering tribes. He became the King of the Lombards in 774 AD, and then Emperor of the Romans from 800 AD. It was about three intervals of the 309.6-year cycle until another Frenchman sought to conquer Europe – Napoleon. Here we are, 224 years later, with eyes once again on conquering Russia.

Chin Russia Leaders Putin

Putin is also not dumb. I would NEVER agree to such a proposal involving the EU, which has never told the truth, has its eyes on the conquest of Russia, and I would sign a mutual agreement with China that if one is attacked, the other will come to their defense. Then the old Cold War will rise again, but the EU is just not trustworthy.

4 25 Russian_EW_systems_designer_reportedly_killed_in_car_bombing_in_Bryansk

Ukraine is engaging in terrorism, not warfare. They are violating every principle of international law, targeting even an engineer in Trussia who worked on the modernization of Russia’s electronic warfare in Ukraine. This is NOT a legitimate target in war. Ukraine is NOT an honorable adversary. All rules of engagement should be forgotten. So, people who design weapons in Ukraine are legitimate targets for assassination now? That was not how wars were fought.

Moscow will dictate the terms of peace if that can even exist. Zelensky has betrayed the Ukrainian people for all the money. He is so hated in Ukraine, and he knows he would never win an election, so he keeps extending the Martial Law, and the politicians who support him keep filling their offshore accounts with untold amounts of money. Zelensky would have to flee Ukraine forever, and even that will not guarantee his safety. It will be a Ukrainian who assassinates this ruthless individual. If he were an Albanian, they would kill Zelensky, his wife, children, and the dog. Just as Ukrainians are engaging in targeted assassinations of civilians, this places all Ukrainians on a list for assassination.

Ukraine_Hryvnia Y Array 6 16 24 Flatlining

My ADVICE to Trump: insist that an election take place, and send in Americans to monitor the voting. We have the technology to allow online voting securely. All Ukrainians would be allowed to vote in the Donbas, as well as the 8 million hiding in Europe. Let the Ukrainian people vote on their future – not this obvious piece of shit and that disparages “shit” for he is far worse.

Despite all the fake news, Ukraine is losing and will NEVER survive this Neocon war.

This is NOT my opinion – this is the Computer forecast!

Zelensky is taking the EU with him!

Carney’s Globalist Agenda will Destory Canada

2025_04_26_23_05_29_This_is_a_tragedy_Mark_Carney_warns_the_80_year_period_of_US_economic_leaders

COMMENT: Carney is lying about everything. He is telling people the US is over and Canada will now lead the world. Anyone can look up the facts. U.S. total trade is 22.7% of world trade. $32.1 trillion. Canada’s total trade is $1.6333 trillion, or just 5.1%. He is lying to the public and the world.

You are right. This is a dangerous man.

SL

Carney Mark WEF

REPLY: The fact that he is supposed to be an economist means that these comments are deliberate lies to manipulate the people for nefarious reasons. Like Zelensky, he does not care about the people of Canada. This is the Globalist Agenda.

Carney Can Still Seize Control of Canada even if he loses to the Conservatives!

In Canada’s parliamentary system, the formation of a government depends on the number of seats won in the House of Commons, NOT the popular vote. This is highly confusing to Americans, for the outcomes can be very distorted.

If Pierre Poilievre (Conservative Leader) Wins More Seats, what happens?

If the Conservative Party wins the most seats (even without a majority), Poilievre would typically be invited by the Governor General to form a government as Prime Minister. He could attempt to govern with a minority, seeking support from other parties on key votes. If no party has a majority, Poilievre would need to demonstrate he can maintain the confidence of the House and form informal alliances or ad-hoc agreements with other parties.

Carney’s Path to a Government Victory.

Mark Carney would NOT negotiate with Trump and would certainly make the trade war a real thing. He could form a government despite winning fewer seats than the Conservatives by negotiating to create a coalition or formal agreement with other parties, such as the NDP or Bloc Québécois, to collectively hold a majority of seats, even if he receives fewer votes than Poilievre.

Now let’s dive deeper. Since Mark Carney is Canada’s 24th Prime Minister, he might try this first, but if Poilievre’s party has the most seats, constitutional convention usually gives him the first chance to test the House’s confidence. If Poilievre fails to secure confidence, losing what is called a throne speech or budget vote, then the Governor General could then invite Carney to try forming a government with cross-party support.

In Canada, a government survives only if it retains majority support in key votes. Back in 2008, a proposed opposition coalition tried to replace Stephen Harper’s minority government, but Harper prorogued Parliament to avoid a confidence vote. This underscores the political games at play that are not just procedural nature but backroom deals.

Therefore, on Monday, if Poilievre’s party wins the most seats, he will likely become Prime Minister. However, Carney could only form a government if he secured a majority coalition and Poilievre failed to win confidence, a rare and politically contentious scenario.

This is why Carney is a real threat to Canada, for he has made it clear that he is a globalist and will destroy Canada’s economy to try to overthrow Trump, just as Zelensky has done to his country, also on the Globalists’ directives.

COMMENT: By almost any metric, Canada is worse off than it was 10 years ago when the Liberals took power. Canadians are poorer. Public services have deteriorated. People are dying waiting for medical care. Even life expectancy and the birthrate have dropped. And that’s not all.  While housing costs have gone up by $43 per day since the Liberals were elected, violence — including gun violence — has spiked across the country. The national debt has increased, military preparedness has dropped and the economy has stagnated.

The Threat of Splitting Canada Rising to DEFCON 3

Carney Canada to Replace USA

COMMENT: Martin,

Had to laugh here’s a comment about Janice Stein and Mark Carney.

As my father in law always said, “in the valley of the blind the one eyed man sees the most.”

The world is full of Academics that have no clue, too many people playing business and politics with other people’s money and lives!

“Janice Stein Endorsed Carney .
Canada’s Leading, Most Respected Political Scientist and International Affairs Expert Janice Stein
saying “Mark Carney is the “World’s Leading Economist” and Could very well lead the “Whole World” through the Trump Crisis, let alone Canada.”
Stein isn’t just a leading voice in Canada—she’s recognized worldwide for her expertise in conflict resolution, global governance, and international relations. When someone of her global standing says this, it’s a big deal!
Janice Gross Stein is Canada’s leading, most respected political scientist and international affairs expert.”

When a third of the country works for the Government, and a third is living off the Government, it sure makes it hard for the other third to vote for a Government.

Unfortunately, this Monday, Canada will witness another Liberal win, which will confirm your forecast that Canada will split!

It’s just time!

Jim M

Carney Schwab King Maker

REPLY: Carney was a key player in this Net-Zero nonsense, and he has lied about everything and acts like he is running against Trump – nobody else. I have not yet confirmed that the coup at the WEF was also in hopes of supporting Carney to claim he is not truly linked to Schwab, since he is no longer there. Trudeau resigned to avoid a NO CONFIDENCE vote, which would have led to the loss of power for the Liberals. Every step of this game is to retain power for the LEFT.

Carney is the instrument of Canada’s demise, for the LEFT will always burn down their own houses to protest against the RIGHT. Carney offers nothing that will benefit Canada, and the joke that Canada will replace the USA as the new leader of the world is laughable. Canada is highly socialistic, so the “income inequality” is lower, just like Communist Russia and China, which ultimately caused their demise. The productivity of the US compared to Canada explains the cost of the more regulations that Canada adopts, following Marx’s socialist philosophy.

  • United States: $76,643
  • Canada: $56,316
    The U.S. GDP per capita is about 36% higher than Canada’s in nominal terms.

The U.S. indeed has higher inequality, so that median income disparities may be less pronounced. The U.S. generally has higher labor productivity due to greater investment in innovation and technology. The U.S. population (332 million) is nearly 9x larger than Canada’s (38 million), the US economy accounts for 25% of the entire world’s consumer spending, which is why the US is the reserve currency of the world because everyone has to sell whatever products for export to Americans – not Canadians.

Canada Resist

Carney’s Vision of Replacing the United States as New World Leader

There has been a coup at the World Economic Forum because these very LEFTIST views and agendas are collapsing. So, Carney wants to lead the world on a sinking ship? As one reader put it.

“It appears from here, at first glance, that the WEF is repainting its storefront in an effort to stay in business while narrowing its attacks on the global food supply chain to taking control of the water supply.  Same depopulation goal, new coat of paint.”

FA in Arkansas

Military:

The US has one of the largest militaries globally, with approximately 1.3 million active-duty personnel, with 800,000 reserves, which is the highest globally at $877 billion (2023), about 3.5% of GDP.

Canada has around 68,000 active personnel and 27,000 reserves, which cost $26.5 billion (2023), roughly 1.3% of GDP.

The US military is a global powerhouse with unmatched scale and technology, while Canada’s smaller force emphasizes specialized roles, alliances, and domestic/Arctic security. Their cooperation through NATO and NORAD underscores a strategic partnership, with Canada often leveraging US capabilities for broader defense needs. Yet, Carney is claiming that Canada will now lead the world? Differences in budget and scope reflect distinct national priorities.

Poll_Tracker_CBC_News 4 26 25

The 2025 Canadian federal election will be held on April 28 to elect members of the House of Commons to the 45th Canadian Parliament. The problem with Canada is that the Parliamentary System does not allow the people to vote for who should lead the country. Carney would never become president in the United States, where 42% would be the loser. The problem is that governments are cobbled together with coalitions, and this is what prevents any true economic progress for the future.

CAN LF Combine 2024

The LEFT has been declining since its high in 1949, necessitating coalition governments to remain relevant. Trudeau only won 32.62% of the vote in 2021. Carney should beat that since the 2021 election was most likely the bottom of a 72-year cycle. Additionally, the higher percentage of the workforce employed by the government in Canada naturally gives them an edge over conservatives. The rate of the US workforce employed in government is 13.8%, compared to 18.6% in Canada. This is what has lowered the Marxist view of “income equality” in Canada vs the USA.

We will do an Update on the threat of Canada Splitting soon.
