A short conversational excerpt from a YouTube video by Matan Hazanov titled "The Problem with Liberals..." In this exchange the speakers discuss growing socio-economic disparities in Canada, the erosion of the traditional "Canadian promise" of upward mobility, and critique of progressive elites using the term "limousine liberal."
As Pierre has said it before, really pretty eloquently, the. The have yachts and the have nots.
That's cute.
That's pretty. It's pretty accurate, too, depending on, you know, depending on sort of where, you know, where you're born, what your experience was in, you know, in this. In this country, working hard, getting ahead, like all of those things that were the Canadian promise.
That are just sort of.
Falling apart.
I like the term limousine liberal because it encapsulates this idea that progressives mainly, they would enact these policies, but they never see the effect of it on the ground because.
Yeah, sure, not in their. Not in their world. Right. It's. I think there is a tremendous number of. Of Canadians, no matter sort of who you are, where you came from, when you got here, what language you speak, what color your skin is, like, all of that aside, that are working harder and harder and not seeing the benefits of everything that this country has to offer, and we're squandering, I think, the opportunity as a. As a country writ large to do some of the things that we should be doing really well.
