I speak of none other than the Liberal party of Canada’s new
poster child, Justin Trudeau who recently announced that all future Liberal
MP’s "MUST" be Pro-Choice on the abortion issue. Excuse me? What am I missing here?
When did we change our political system in this country to
that of a dictatorship?
This is not a question of the pros or cons of abortion. This
has nothing to do with whether you or I tend to follow the pro-choice camp or
the pro-life camp. This has nothing to do with religion or ethics. This is
simply one of the signs of a government that is bent and determined to tell her
people what they can and cannot believe. If you have aspirations to become a
Liberal politician in this country, then you have to believe as Pierre’s little
boy does. At the risk of digressing too far, it is interesting to note that it
was Justin’s daddy that legalized abortion in this country in the first place
when he was Prime Minister.
Does Justin (and by connection, the Liberal Party of Canada) think
that the Canadian people are too stupid to realize what is really going on? Are
we really that naïve? Are we OK with government telling us what we can and
cannot believe? What’s next; completely take away our right to vote?

I am not suggesting that other political parties don’t also
have their own flaws, and I certainly could pick on some of their blunders as
well, but I am appalled when someone in government has the audacity to tell me
what I can and cannot believe, and if I do not think exactly as he does, then I
cannot play in his sandbox. It seems to me that someone has a little growing up
to do!
No government is perfect. If history has taught us anything
it is that power corrupts, regardless what political machine a nation embraces
as its own. Capitalism, Socialism, Communism, and whatever other “isms” there
may be; they all have their good points and bad points, and they all have had
corrupt leaders.

Maybe it’s time for another revolution. Maybe its time for
the people to rise up and take back our country, before the political sandbox
looks like the pseudo-democracy of other third-world countries. Maybe it’s time
that pro-choice and pro-life stood together, arm in arm, and reminded Justin
and other future politicians what governing the people does and does not
include. Maybe the people have already spoken and begun to rise up based upon
the typically low turn out at the polls on election days, and it is the politicians who are too stupid to realize that these too are votes; "None of the Above" votes. Maybe if fewer and
fewer people turned out to vote, then someone in politics will one day sit up
and notice and begin to do something about it. Maybe Canadians will wise-up and Justin won't even win his own seat. Maybe no one even cares.
That’s the way I see it anyways. Peace.
