A collapse of their Toronto—St. Paul fortress is just the beginning. All that remains to be seen is how extensive the Liberals’ inevitable ruin will be once Justin Trudeau’s strange, destructive experiment is over.

And it’s not clear how, or under whom, it can find its way again. (Recorded June 28, 2024)
