Last Monday, Premier Scott Moe left the First Ministers Meeting, all smiles and optimism, but let’s be real—can we really trust the man behind the curtain? With Prime Minister Mark Carney playing the role of the elusive magician, promising the world while delivering nothing but smoke and mirrors, one has to wonder: what’s the point of these meetings if they’re just a charade? Political analyst Ken Coates, bless his heart, hinted that Carney set expectations higher than the sky, leaving with a to-do list that could rival the length of a romantic novel.
What a joke!
Inclusion or exclusion? The silent scream of Indigenous leaders
It’s almost laughable how the federal and provincial governments are tripping over themselves, completely forgetting the Indigenous leaders who should be sitting at the table. Can you imagine being left out of discussions that affect your own people? Coates, ever the voice of reason, points out that this exclusion is not just a blunder; it’s a disgrace.
This isn’t just about politics; it’s about basic respect and acknowledgment. Do they think Indigenous issues will magically resolve themselves while they sip lattes and pat each other on the back?
Theatrics over substance
Let’s not kid ourselves—this isn’t just a meeting; it’s a performance.
The politicians strut around, acting like they’re doing us all a favor, while the real work gets shoved aside. It’s as if they think that by wearing those suit jackets and flashing their smiles, they can distract us from the fact that they’re not doing a damn thing.
When was the last time you heard a politician say something that actually mattered? It’s all a game, folks, and most of us are just pawns.
The future: a stage for empty promises
So what’s next? More meetings, more promises, and certainly more disappointment.
Moe and Carney are probably already planning their next big show, complete with PowerPoint slides and empty rhetoric. And we? We’ll be sitting here, waiting for the real action, the real change, and let’s face it, we’ll probably still be waiting a year from now.
Isn’t that just delightful?
