The Architects of Absurdity: Canada’s Nightmare in Broad Daylight

Today, with polished smiles and the confidence of seasoned performers, Chrystia Freeland, Mélanie Joly, and Steven Guilbeault stood before the nation and declared, “Now is the time to build Canada.” They spoke of record investments, a booming future, and a “strong economy” as if the last ten years never happened—as if the country had been in hibernation, waiting for their divine spark to awaken it.

But let’s get real.

What exactly were these people doing all this time? Because when we look around—at the crumbling infrastructure, skyrocketing rent, unlivable cities, unaffordable groceries, and a healthcare system teetering on the brink—it sure as hell doesn’t feel like a nation that’s been “building” anything. Unless we count bureaucratic bloat, red tape, and empty platitudes as “construction projects.”

They say “now is the time.” So, what was yesterday? What was last year? The last decade?

Freeland, who paints herself as a master of finance, oversaw a debt explosion and a dollar shrinking faster than trust in government. Joly, Canada’s top diplomat, presided over foreign affairs like a clueless tourist in a burning embassy. And Guilbeault? He spent more time chasing carbon ghosts than actually addressing the real, immediate economic and social decay gnawing at the bones of this country.

This isn’t leadership—it’s a dark satire with no punchline. And we’re the ones footing the bill for the tickets.

They act like they’re stepping onto the scene for the first time, blissfully detached from the wreckage they helped create. But Canada’s not a blank slate. It’s a battered, bruised, exhausted country that’s been bled dry by the very people now promising to “rebuild” it.

If this is the dream they want us to believe in, then maybe it’s time we all wake up.
