In October of 2019 we had no idea what was coming.
An election had been called. The economy was decent. Markets were robust. Nobody had ever heard of Covid and few knew where Wuhan was. The government that year was taking heat for spending $19 billion more than it took in. And the red-meat-eaters who lumber into this pathetic site every day voted 51% for Andrew Scheer’s Tories, 22% for T2 and 9% for nobody.
