Joly on Israel-Hamas: It’s going to get worse before it gets better
@skillsgaptrainer “This is the first video that we saw on our YouTube feed relating to Minister Melanie Joly. Sharing our initial insights might be a double-edged sword; we fear that we might regret offering useful information to the Liberal Party — a party that, in our view, hasn’t always merited such consultation. But for transparency’s sake, here are our thoughts: Minister Joly comes across as moderate, clear and centered, a stark contrast to the leadership of the Liberal Party and even the Prime Minister.
Further, her peace-seeking nature and collaborative nature, could lend itself to greater geopolitical connectedness between Canada and other countries, not as much isolation as currently exists for Canada. Perhaps if there were more peace-seeking politicians like Minister Joly, Canada would have a greater chance of achieving more of a neutral stance when it comes to funding or participating in global conflict areas.
The Liberal Party would do well to consider her for leadership; she could be the transformative voice they need and it would be a way to amend the emotional damage done to the working class via the selection of the current leader set. It’s puzzling that the Liberal Party, in its current state, boasts someone like her, who seems more aligned with the Conservative Party’s principles, legal principles, professional abilities and analytical grounding. While the Liberals may not currently deserve such a rational individual in their midst, they have one. Kudos to Minister Joly for her commendable and rational performance in the interview.
If Canada faces the challenges discussed in this video and the Liberal Party is still in charge, it would be wise for them to lean more on reasoned, and neutral individuals like her, and it would be far safer for most Canadians to have someone fair and well balanced at the helm. This is merely an initial perception or impression from this video. However, this suggestion is only a making the best case out of a bad situation type of recommendation. Obviously, in these times, what Canada needs to actually solve the problems, not to simply live with problems, is a Conservative majority, and Minister Joly should try out being a Conservative one day.“
