Cuba Is No Longer The Closest Totalitarian State In Our Hemisphere ...

La Danse Macabre De La Mort De La Démocratie


It's now safe to say that Cuba is no longer the closest totalitarian police state in our hemisphere. That distinction now belongs to the nation we share a border with on the 49th parallel, once considered the longest, most peaceful border in the world. It is absolutely breathtaking as well as eye-opening to witness what was once a beacon of freedom to the world descend into the madness of totalitarian state thuggery, naturally dressed up in the skin-suit of "freedom" and "democracy." 
In the words of the rotting lump of celeriac of a criminal pervert propped up in the Oval Office, "what the hell am I talking about?" It's merely a preview of what we're on the knife edge of happening right here. In fact, it's exactly what happened on January 6th, 2021 in the Capitol. Once again, friend of the blog Michael Walsh sets the stage: 
Thus spake Captain Ahab: All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event -- in the living act, the undoubted deed -- there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask! How can the prisoner reach outside except by thrusting through the wall? 
So now the mask slips and the truth is revealed: it was never about masks, or [Chinese] Covid, or "the science" at all. It was always -- and always will be -- about power. The Long March through the Institutions, the hallmark of the Frankfurt School's assault on the Western democracies, has now claimed its latest and thus far biggest prize. 
Who had the collapse of Canada as a functioning democracy on his bingo card? It was disheartening enough when Australia (with a "conservative" prime minister) fell, and that disarmed and benighted nation quickly transformed from the land of Mad Max and Crocodile Dundee back into the British penal colony it always was. But Canada?  
In the blink of an eye, that relationship has been imperiled by Trudeau's abrogation of representative, parliamentary democracy via his mini-Machtergreifung last week. 
In this outrageous and disgraceful action he has been aided and abetted by his deputy prime minister (and finance minister) Chrystia Freeland (Harvard, Rhodes scholar), whose journalist grandfather was reportedly a Nazi collaborator during the war. 
Coincidentally, she is married to a reporter for the New York Times, and is a former journalist herself
Of Ukrainian descent on her mother's side, the steely, multi-lingual Freeland has emerged as She Who Brings Down the Hammer. 
In her remarks following Trudeau's act of nation-destroying pique, she said this: 
"These illegal blockades must and will end. What we are facing today is a threat to our democratic institutions, to our economy, and to peace, order, and good government in Canada. This is unacceptable. It cannot stand and it will not stand." 
"Our democracy," indeed. 
A dedicated leftist, Freeland is a member of the board of trustees of the World Economic Forum, the most dangerous threat to real democracy and freedom in the world today. Led by Klaus Schwab, whose Strangelovian accent would make Laurence Olivier's demented dentist Dr. Szell blush, the WEF is the force behind the Great Reset, a cross between the dystopian visions of Orwell's 1984 and Huxley's Brave New World as run by Daddy Warbucks and Dr. Evil.  
The sad and sobering part is that some two-thirds of Canadians approve of the Trudeau government's curtailment of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which guarantees freedom of conscience and religion; freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication; freedom of peaceful assembly; and freedom of association. 
But as in Britain, Ireland, Australia, and the U.S. Canada's major media are strongly pro-government (as long as that government tilts left) and will not brook any opposition to their love of internationalism. If that means rights have to be shelved "for a limited time," well you know the old saw about omelets and eggs. It only took two years to end "two weeks to flatten the curve."

And, we are not far behind Canada. If nothing drastic happens, we will soon be our own closest Totalitarian state.
