I’ve said in previous essays that Canada—so rich in agriculture, forestry, minerals, oil, and gas, and blessed with safe borders—is a country with the body of a Ferrari and the brain of a Mattel toy.
Nowhere is this more evident than in the quality of people we elect to Parliament: handsome, athletic, photogenic, good at paddling boats—and apparently unburdened by the inconvenience of thinking.
When an MP can stand on national television and utter something so fatuous that we are left with only two explanations—either breathtaking dishonesty or a level of ignorance that would embarrass an average eighth-grader—we are forced to ask a third, more unsettling question: what does this say about the voters who put him there?
Enter Adam van Koeverden: Canada’s stupidest member of parliament. Congrats Adam.
