Peterson arguing why Canadians are ostensibly bucking the old cliche that, "If a man is not a socialist by the time he is 20, he has no heart. If he is not a conservative by the time he is 40, he has no brain."
He essentially argues that there is a generational divide among Canadians marked by the proclivity to vote Liberal among older Canadians, which is not for any spectre of radicalism lurking in their drawing rooms; but that they are pining for Old Canada, which, in Carney, is incarnate. The latter won't usher in any such promises due to his alignment not with growth but with the WEF agenda for global restructuring.
The "children and grandchildren" of the Canadian landed-class, on the other hand, "want an economy instead of moral comfort....[not] The Man at the vanguard of antigrowth economic collapse and authoritarian economic control."
In any case, Canadians are apparently bucking the universal developmental/political trend, with the youth tilting to the right (insofar as Canadian Conservatives can be considered right) and the elders in our society rejecting their political coming of age and support for tradition. This all could be read to perversely set the radical elderly against the wise and cautious youth in the Great White North.
But is this truly the case? Those who hold that view must simultaneously assume that the CPC is the party of tradition, and that older Canadians perceive the federal Liberals under Carney as more radical or progressive. Neither of these assumptions are warranted.
