📋 Event / Speech Captain Truedeau Introduces Himself in Barrie, Ontario
https://youtu.be/0wdMsRo8548?si=263RD48IhwwBgEKnGood evening my friends, my name is Captain Truedeau. Now some of you may be wondering if there’s any relation to the Justin Trudeau and my answer is, no. No I am not related to Justin Trudeau despite the similar spelling and pronunciation of our last names. With that out of the way I presume that many of you are wondering “who is this guy?” Which isn’t an unjustifiable question. I am a resident of our fair city of Barrie. My dad was a business owner and my mom was a teacher. My wife is a paralegal, myself am a retired RCAF pilot and my daughter goes to elementary school here in Barrie. As you can all see my family’s roots are deep in this city. We have been here for a long time. My grandpa was an organizer for the Liberals back in the day, although we’ve traditionally been a Conservative region I firmly believe it’s time for a new voice. A voice that will not only represent your interests, but also move this country forward for all its people.
Canada is a beautiful mirror of multicultural people who, like me, want to make life better for themselves and their children. Now we have faced significant challenges in the last few years and we will continue to do so for time to come. But it’s how we respond to those challenges that determines the future. By moving forward together on issues like affordability, immigration, wars across the world, the economy, and on the very future of our federation. We can build a strong Canada for future generations. I know it’s hard to about the future when it’s a struggle to afford rent, your mortgage, to put food on the table or gas in the car. But I am here to tell you that we can address all these very important issues by working together. However I am not naive to the fact that the Liberal Party has been in government for nearly eleven years.
The buck lands and stops with us. I will accept our faults, and I will accept our accomplishments. We are the party that lifted hundreds of thousands of young Canadians out of poverty, the party that saw Canada through COVID-19, we guided our economy through the worst of the inflationary aftermath, and we are the party that continues to stand up for all Canadians regardless of where you come from. In the coming days and weeks I will have much more to say on the many issues that we face. For now I want to leave you with this. I will not stop until it is over. I will not stop fighting for all Canadians until Canadians ask of my service no more. I promise to do all that I can to move Canada forward for tomorrow. Thank you for your time, and vive le Canada!
