Counter-Currents

If the weather auguries are correct, we’re set to have another snowstorm at any moment. I’ve decided to venture out into the cold and wander around my suburban snowscape to clear my head and think about what’s really happening. Between my annoying neighbour who has a habit of throwing snow on my driveway, and the pending trade war with the United States of America, along with Canadians and Americans yelling at one another on social media, I’ve been in a bad mood lately.
I’m ambivalent because I’ve realized that without Trump’s comprehensive reform of American government and Elon Musk delving into the waste inherent in the gigantic racket that is the managerial state, America is doomed. I know without the steps that President Trump has taken at the border to close things up tighter than the security at Little Free Libraries, the historic American nation will be replaced by useless people from the third world. I know this to be true.
I also know that the government in my home country of Canada is a communist, globalist, leftist, malevolent cadre of psychopaths that hate our country and need to be cleaned out with a pressure washer set to “cleanse”. I’m caught between my identity as a Canadian who enjoys frigid weather, ice hockey, and our quirky gridiron football rules; and the incontrovertible fact that if we don’t address the issue of globalism in all its malicious and rapacious forms, the Western world is done for. The hour is late, and I see the writing on the wall like we all do.
My knee-jerk reaction is that I really don’t like it when Americans tell us what to do. Even though Americans are our best friends and trading partners, there is an inherent anti-Americanism here that emerges periodically whether we want it to or not. Canada and the United States share the longest undefended land border in the world and our economies are so integrated to the point where car parts can cross the border in upwards of eight times before final assembly in a plant on either side of the border. I blame our government for this more than I blame President Trump for anything. He knows what it will take to right the fiscal ship of the most indebted country on planet earth; and he also knows what the raw intelligence reports look like when it comes to the northern border and the drug trade. Canadian news outlets have been concealing the severity of the illicit fentanyl trade and the presence of organized crime syndicates in Canada from the public. If it were not for the intrepid work of real investigative reporters like Sam Cooper,the reality of the fentanyl scourge and the ubiquitous presence of Chinese triad gangs and Mexican cartels would reman hidden.
I worry that Canada’s elected officials on both sides of the House of Commons —which is not sitting right now because of Trudeau’s self-serving prorogation— are grossly incapable of carrying out the reforms necessary to save our country. Although I do like Pierre Poilievre’s assertion that Canada needs to desperately increase our presence in the arctic and re-exert our sovereignty, his desired immigration numbers were far too high for my liking. Meanwhile, though, Trudeau, the man who should be spending every waking moment talking to the Americans, decided that he needed to fly off to France and meet with Emmanuel Macron for God-knows-what reason and kowtow to the Europeans.
The mainstream press, which spends most of its time running interference for Trudeau, was busy telling its dwindling audience that the prime minister was trying to diversify trade relationships with other overseas markets so that Canada wouldn’t be as reliant on the US; but we all know he was hiding from Trump. The two hate each other, I don’t think that’s any sort of secret at this point. When he initially responded to Trump’s threat of 25% tariffs, one reporter to her credit asked whether he had actually spoken to the newly inaugurated president, to which Trudeau responded no, not since January 20. That may or may not have been a lie. If he had a modicum of sense instead of being a craven coward, Trudeau should have been spending every waking moment negotiating some sort of trade deal with Trump, but instead he’s avoided the president like the plague, prorogued parliament, pretended to resign, and left our country adrift.
I despair at the prospect of handing the country over to Justin’s successor. All signs indicate that the powers that be in globalist circles along with left wing commentators here in Canada want Mark Carney to take over the reigns of our failing country so he can accelerate the already rampant globalist program. Carney loves carbon taxes; he despises Trump and any sort of nationalism. Even though he has emphasized that the rank-and-file citizenry must sacrifice in order to combat the evil that is climate change, he likes to be chauffeured around in a Rolls-Royce limousine. He made a recent comment about our fentanyl problem here in Canada and callously said that our problem was not the same as the problem of opioids in the United States. His comments caused a small backlash as individuals on X/Twitter who lost loved ones to the drug called him out.
Thanks to Trudeau’s absenteeism and avoidance, Canada’s provincial premiers were forced to take their message to Washington themselves. I really don’t think they accomplished anything of value. They didn’t even manage to get a meeting with Trump himself. I’m normally not this cynical about things, but I know in my heart that their efforts to stave off the annexation of Canada by the United States were futile.
At this point it is only a matter of time before Trump puts enough economic pressure on Canada to make our leaders capitulate. What form will the capitulation take? If Canada were in a better economic position, if we had a leader that was devoted to the prosperity of our country, and had a good diplomatic relationship with President Trump, things would be very different. But alas they are not.
The entire political class here in Canada, no matter the stripe, are weak pushovers that have betrayed our country. I never thought I would say this in all seriousness, but I would rather be an American under the MAGA program than continue along with the globalist destruction that has done nothing but make white Canadians strangers in their own land.

Great article.
I blame also the average Canadian voter (particularly in Ontario and the west coast) for repeatedly electing at the federal level a plutocratic, far left, globalist elite for actively and aggressively pursuing the destruction of Canada for decades. It’s like these voters can never take a hint.
That being the case, nature abhors a vacuum. A situation may unfold sooner than you might think where the Americans will be left with no choice but to invade/annex Canada in order to protect the North American continent from Russian/Chinese infiltration/conquest. Believe me, that hour is coming since our elite are devoted to the most degenerative principles of governance.
For me, the question now is not whether Canada should be broken up, but whether individual provinces will take the hint and exit Confederation on their own terms, in a position of relative strength, and either form their own nations or join the USA.
“Even though he has emphasized that the rank-and-file citizenry must sacrifice in order to combat the evil that is climate change, he likes to be chauffeured around in a Rolls-Royce limousine.”
That ain’t no proper Rolls – it’s one of those Chinese copies and its actually really quite ugly. I suppose there’s no accounting for taste.
-“his (Pierre Poilievre) desired immigration numbers were far too high for my liking.” Here the elephant in the room is being ignored – what is a Canadian? Even as an American, I know what is a Canadian – as per your Red Ensign your four Founding Peoples are the French, English, Irish, Scottish, along with the European diaspora. Canada, not unlike us, are bringing in people that can never be Canadians (India would rightly never accept us as Indian if we were born in India). At a NHL game the Canadian Anthem was sung in Hindi – diversity is being shoved in your face good & hard.
-“if we had a leader that was devoted to the prosperity of our country”. Canada is not an economic zone, it is the homeland of Canadians. A devoted leader (which we don’t have either) would ensure the survival of its people, in this case Canada for Canadians, America for Americans.
-“white Canadians”, this is redundant as Canadians belong to the European Race, thus, no need to include White. If Canada becomes 50% or 60% Indian (sure looks that way as the reports I’m getting), will it still be Canada?
Arrivederci Canada.
Even as an American, I know what is a Canadian – as per your Red Ensign your four Founding Peoples are the French, English, Irish, Scottish, along with the European diaspora.
What part of the Red Ensign indicates the rest of the European diaspora (i.e., Scandinavians, Germans, Italians, Slavs, etc? ) I should think that is your own input. A genuine old stock Canadian is any one of those four ethnic groups, as indicated on the original flag, the claims of the white-hating George Elliott Clarke (7th generation descendant of black refugees of the War of 1812) notwithstanding.
“The true ‘old-stock’ Canadians are the First Nations and Inuit and Metis, followed by the many divergent ethnicities who were also present in colonial Canada, from African slaves in muddy York to ‘German’ settlers on the South Shore of Nova Scotia, from the Chinese merchants present in Nouvelle-France to the Portuguese and Basque fishermen of Newfoundland…Personally, I think the current Prime Minister is unsure about his own identity and possibly nervous about the true, multicultural, multilingual, multiple-faiths and multiracial Canada that now beautifully, proudly, lives and flourishes.”
No part of the Red Ensign indicates European diaspora, that was my input. Why did I do that? Canada’s Founding Fathers were on the same page when it comes to race. Ours were more explicit (obviously it should have been indisputable) as the documents read “Posterity” in the Preamble of the US Constitution & “white person(s)” in the Naturalization Act of 1790. It is without a doubt that Canada’s Founding Fathers never imagined a Canada that would not be European, same with ours. Both our Founding Fathers would be horrified if they saw our multiracial countries today.
“The true ‘old-stock’ Canadians are the First Nations and Inuit and Metis, followed by the many divergent ethnicities who were also present in colonial Canada, from African slaves in muddy York to ‘German’ settlers on the South Shore of Nova Scotia, from the Chinese merchants present in Nouvelle-France to the Portuguese and Basque fishermen of Newfoundland…”
The First Nations, Inuit, Métis are not Canadian, they belong to their nations. There was no Canada until the Europeans came, until the four basic Europeans (French, English, Irish, Scottish) created & built Canada.
Very important we define who is Canadian & who is American NOW. As you can see pajeets up in Canada are saying they are just as Canadian. Vivek Ramaswamy is making his rounds across America telling every fool that will listen that America is an idea. Make no mistake, Canada is being stolen from Canadians, as is America from Americans. Canada & USA were both created & built by & for Europeans.

Just listened to a Canadian podcast at “Council Of European Canadians” located in comments of the article “Make Canada Great Again”, with one of the guest saying Canadians will be a minority in 6 years.
Thanks, John, I’ll check it out.
I don’t believe America will actually invade Canada or anything like that. I don’t think we want to, and I don’t think we’re strong enough. The US is totally hollowed out and speeding toward a cliff with only Trump and Musk at the wheel, but there’s an army of lawyers and Hawaiian judges trying to stop their belated attempts to engage the brake.
I’d say to just hold out a little longer, but Canada seems to be speeding toward the same cliff alongside us… Best of luck!
The last thing the US needs is for Canada to become its 51st State. That would guarantee Democratic Party (communist) hegemony. Canadians vote like Californians.
Better for CA, OR and WA to succeed from the US. They can form their own loony-land. Or they can join Canada, becoming its 14th, 15th and 16th Provinces. The resulting critical mass would cause a massive social meltdown and collapse. It would be visible from the Moon.
I know that there are sensible Canadians out there, and you’re one of them. To me, you and I are practically paisanos, even if we’re on other sides of the border. As for Justin Trudeau, he’s a bitch, and so are his supporters. Worse, he’s a WEF puppet, which means that he doesn’t stand for Canada’s sovereignty but rather is loyal to a globalist wannabe world government. I wish you the best, and that one day you’ll have a head of state worthy of the job.
Likewise, Beau, and thank you.
I too want to be American….if only to diss the PAJEETS who have been sneering about being Canadian to my powerless face for years.
Canada is as dead as my grandfather who lies in a nearby cemetery. Having lived on the Lower Mainland since 1975 I really don’t see much of a connection between that Canada and today’s land of the mixed multitude. If Canada doesn’t throw in its lot with the States we will become, as someone said, a colony of whoever wins the war between India and the Chinese – ain’t multiculturalism wonderful!
