Sure. Trudeau has announced that he's resigning, but not till March 24th. Now, he's resigning just days before he was having a caucus meeting where his own liberal MPs were going to demand that he resigned. So he's preempting them. But he's doing a sneaky move, Charlie.

In a parliamentary system like Canada has, in Parliament, that's our version of Congress, the ordinary MPs, members of Parliament, can vote no confidence and bring the government down and force an election. So Trudeau has asked the Governor General, that's the King's representative in Canada, to dissolve Parliament. It's called proroguing.

So not only did Trudeau not really resign today, he's kicked the can down the road almost three months, but he's dissolved Parliament so no House of Commons business can happen, no bills can be passed, no question period where people scrutinize the government, but mainly, Charlie... He's not letting MPs have a vote of no confidence.

So in a way, he's suspended democracy just to give himself three more months of power and perks. So I guess one cheer, not two cheers for three cheers for what happened today.

Well, that's part of it. The conservative leader in Canada is pretty good. His name is Pierre Polyev. He's pretty right wing. I mean, right wing in Canada isn't quite right wing in the U.S., but Polyev is excellent on economics and fiscal and monetary policy. He's gotten a lot firmer on immigration. Not Donald Trump firm, but better than any leader we've had in decades.

He's talked about replacing the woke culture in our military with a warrior culture. And most importantly, in my mind, Charlie, Pierre Polyev has a Trump-like approach to partisan media. He calls out reporters in real time. He has... promise to defund our state broadcaster called the CBC. So I'm quite encouraged about Pierre Polyev. I think

The fact that he's strong and, you know, you could say the phrase alpha male, that's sort of part of it. But I think Trudeau has had so many scandals and so much corruption and he's been so badly behaved over the last months that his time was coming up. I mean, Trudeau has been polling so low. Last poll I saw put him at 16 percent. his party MPs are worried they're going to be wiped out.
