J.J. McCullough: RESIGN? Trudeau and Biden's overlapping leadership crises

 

[VIDEO] The differences & similarities between the respective leaders of Canada and United States. Duration is over 20 mins for this video.

Allow me to add that Canada has a slightly different electoral system to our nation. Canada has a parliamentary/Westminster system of gov't vs. the USA which is a republican form of gov't.

The next elections in Canada is at least next year, and there is a strong possibility that Canadians may want a change in their gov't. This could lead to Prime Minister Trudeau opting to stand down before the next election and his party chooses another leader in time for the next election. I see no indication that he would although I'm not an ardent follower of Canadian politics.

And now Joe Biden. Before the recent incident in Pennsylvania regarding President Donald Trump - the GOP nominee for President - the news cycle was dominated by whether or not he'd drop out of the race. My thoughts are why wasn't this discussed well before the summer. Someone should've been working on him at least 6 months ago. There is no strong indication that he would drop out and if he did we'd have a bit of a scramble to determine who would run in his place.

Even if he stayed in the race indications are that he would likely lose his rematch with his predecessor President Trump.

Some contrasts here are ages. Trudeau is in his early 50s and his background showed no indication that he could one day become a nat'l leader in Canada. He's also the son of a Canadian Prime Minister in the late Pierre Trudeau. He had talent that led him to becoming not only the leader of Canada's Liberal Party it also led him to the office of Prime Minister, Canada's head of gov't.

Biden on the other hand is aged 81, the oldest President ever elected. He's spent most of his life in politics being elected to the US Senate aged 30 in 1972. He was Vice President under Obama from 2009 - 2017. Then he runs for President in 2020 in a chaotic year and after two other earlier tries he finally succeeds. Whether I like it or not...

Of course I may also add it's debatable if he has the same talents that Justin Trudeau has as a politician. Although we may cringe at Trudeau's attempts to connect with the youth.

Sorry for my longwinded response to this video however time will tell the results of the 2024 race and certainly we will see what happens in Canada once election season commences there as well.

JJ MCullough: Canada, the Queen, and me

 

[VIDEO] JJ McCullough discusses the British monarchy's relationship with the realm of Canada. In addition to taking on the British throne, King Charles III will among other realms become the King of Canada. McCullough who in his youth spoke on the issue of making Canada a Republic and removing the reigning British monarch as the nation's head of state.

So he speaks on the monarch's role over Canada making reference to the late Queen Elizabeth II.

Mr. Beat: Canada and the United States compared #FourthofJuly

 

[VIDEO] In lieu of showing Mr. Beat's most recent video discussing the faces on U.S. currency dollar bills to coin we're going to look at the differences between our neighbors to the north in Canada and these United States. Seems like an appropriate video for the Fourth of July/Independence Day holiday.

While there are many similarities both nations are entirely different. We might perceive Canadians as more polite or more liberal. The Canada gov't is vastly different from ours as Canada is a constitutional monarchy where the Queen of the United Kingdom - England, Wales, Scotland, & Northern Ireland - sits on the Canadian throne. Thus Canada has a parliamentary form of gov't where the principal leader of that nation's gov't is determined by how many seats one party or another have in their legislature.

Of course these United States is a constitutional republic where there is strict separation of powers between the legislative, executive and judiciary. Power at least between the legislative and executive may often be split between various political parties. 

Another thing stated is levels of incarceration in Canada vs. U.S. where it is held that these United States incarcerate for more people between the two nations.

Also climates the U.S. has a vast territory that includes the continental 48 states, Alaska and Hawaii in addition to other territories such as Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Guam, Mariana Islands, even the American Samoa. We have arctic, deserts, tropical, type climates and I've only scratched the surface. For the most part I'm sure many of us think of Canada as super cold but watch the video their climates might surprise you.

I hope you enjoy this and learn something new. Hopefully you've had a very happy and safe Fourth of July holiday.
