Subversion and Survival: Assessing Leadership Challenges in a Transforming Canada

@skillsgaptrainer “Oh, Mr. Peterson, if the situation is as complex as we suspect, involving not just Canada’s issues but a multifaceted global convergence and emergence of dozens of crises, challenges, threats and dangers, between 2020 to 2050; it may take Pierre Poilievre 30 to 45 years just to start addressing both the systemic issues now created by Liberal Party and the emerging 21st century issues. The age of rest is now over. We think Pierre Poilievre will have the opportunity, with incredible total global war level hardships, to become a major historical figure that can transcend millenia, similar to other western or European generals in history. Maybe Danielle Smith, too. This is because we don’t have profound generals in the public forum, so national resilience and survival will come down to the strongest leaders, Pierre, Danielle, Lantsman, and Dancho. It almost seems as if Canada was strategically undermined by the removal of experienced police, public safety personnel, and military leaders right before the critical conflict period of 2020 to 2050. This pattern is suspiciously reminiscent of tactics used in Communist Romania during the 1970s and 1980s, when the political class took control of the military by replacing seasoned leaders. This is a well-known indicator of a political overhaul, as experienced by many Romanian soldiers who recognize such changes as precursors to a revolution, as occurs in Canada today. Usually, people with non soldier like identity, not fully real soldier identity, not true “marines”, with “valour”, “patriotism”, “duty”, “freedom fighters”, are chosen for these takeovers. It works because the people chosen for takeover don’t know they are part of a takeover. Individuals chosen for roles in military or police interventions often believe their selection is merited due to their competence. However, testimonials from soldiers and commanders indicate a preference for traits associated with high obedience and what might be considered a feminine identity — attributes such as compliance and a greater inclination towards negotiation over confrontation. In more sensitive discussions, such as in Canada, this observation is framed in terms of selecting individuals who show less assertiveness and fewer traditionally masculine traits, like the willingness to openly defy superiors. This selection bias isn’t just about personality but also aligns with practical roles within the military structure, such as administrative duties over combat-heavy roles like those in the marines. Those chosen are often more engaged with the strategic and bureaucratic aspects of military operations rather than front-line combat activities like fighting, boxing, weightlifting, and shooting. This approach potentially minimizes conflicts of interest when orders given may contradict the well-being or the values of the broader citizenry. It suggests a strategic alignment of personal traits with roles that less frequently challenge higher authority, facilitating smoother implementation of top-down directives, even when they may not serve the public interest. In the future, people will likely look back critically at those who spend on non-essential programs today, like Liberal Party 2015 to 2024. The youth often are misled by media to encourage government towards non essential spending, not realizing there won’t be any capital for medical for the elderly one day soon, or capital for resilience systems creation and military modernization and military boot-up for dealing with several dozen, global scale, 21st-century dangers”
