Three months ago, Mark Carney stood before the nation and delivered a grave warning: Canada, he said, was teetering on the edge of its worst economic crisis since the Second World War. The words came wrapped in doom, and for a moment, it felt like the whole country held its breath.
But now? The silence is deafening. Parliament has packed its bags for summer break, disappearing into the mist for the next 12 weeks, as if the looming threat were nothing more than a bad dream. No urgency. No accountability. Just a quiet, calculated escape from the burning questions that haunt every household across this land.
And this is the bitter truth: every word that slithered out of Mark Carney’s mouth was a calculated piece of theatre. He spoke of crisis and doom, knowing full well that fear makes people pliable. Yet, when it came time for action, when the people needed leaders to stand and fight, the gates slammed shut, and those in power walked away.
It’s not just a crisis of the economy anymore. It’s a crisis of trust. A slow, methodical betrayal by those elected to protect us. And the scariest part? So many will swallow the lies, smile, and wave as if none of this ever happened.
How long can a country stand when its leaders govern by deceit and its people accept silence as truth? The storm is coming, and when it arrives, it will sweep away more than just jobs and paychecks. It will test the very soul of this nation.
