In Canada, the mainstream media—heavily funded by taxpayer dollars—has played a significant role in shaping public perception. Many Canadians have been conditioned to dislike Donald Trump without truly understanding his policies or leadership. They label him a dictator, despite his record demonstrating otherwise. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has faced numerous scandals, yet continues to avoid accountability by appointing his allies to oversee investigations or shutting down Parliament when scrutiny gets too intense.
From the Winnipeg Lab controversy to the Green Slush Fund, Trudeau’s track record is riddled with questionable actions. Yet, he maintains a loyal following. So, the question remains: who is truly operating like a dictator?
Trump’s Leadership in Action
Instead of relying on media narratives, let’s examine what Trump has actually accomplished:
- Cut off foreign influence in political funding
- Advocated for diplomacy over war
- Took a firm stance against illegal mass immigration
- Withdrew from the United Nations Paris Agreement
- Removed the U.S. from the World Health Organization (WHO)
- Stood firm on the biological definition of male and female
- Took measures to prevent child medical procedures related to gender transitions
- Upheld fairness in women’s sports by barring biological males from competing
- Removed Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI) curriculum from schools
- Ended Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) hiring requirements
- Reversed DEI initiatives within the military
- Pushed back against “woke” ideology in governance
Despite these decisive actions, many Canadians dismiss him with the oversimplified narrative: “Orange Man Bad.”
Trudeau’s Questionable Governance
On the other hand, Trudeau’s leadership tells a different story. He has openly praised China’s authoritarian system, stating that its ability to implement policies swiftly is admirable. Under his tenure, Canada has seen increasing foreign interference, particularly from China and Mexican cartels. Fentanyl production and money laundering operations have thrived within Canada’s borders, inflating the housing market and worsening the drug crisis. Yet, Trudeau downplays the issue, insisting that only a small fraction of fentanyl originates from Canada.
Donald Trump has called on Canada to strengthen its border security and prevent the flow of fentanyl into the United States. But why did it take pressure from Trump for Trudeau to act? More importantly, why has no Canadian political leader among the 338 Members of Parliament taken meaningful steps to address foreign infiltration?
Shifting the Blame
Instead of facing these pressing issues, many Canadians continue to blame Trump for problems within their own country. If that narrative helps them feel patriotic, so be it. But the reality is clear: leadership is defined by actions, and the true test of governance lies in accountability and results. The real question remains—who is behaving more like a dictator: Trump or Trudeau?
