Justin Trudeau was a ski instructor before becoming Prime Minister.
Ronald Reagan and Zelenskyy were ridiculed as an actor in their election campaigns.
Poilievre is a career politician and unproven at the highest office, but that by itself should not disqualify him. Knowing who to delegate to is 90% the job of a good leader -- the other 10% is public speaking and being charismatic.
I mean, this is the French way. SNCF striking (a yearly occurrence) is arguably halting the economy each time it happens.
As a sympathizer to the HK protests, I've heard all these talking points before -- that the protesters are ruining the economy and making things miserable for everyone. Usually the protests can really only get so big when there is a shared grievance that keeps getting ignored by the administration.
In the case of HK, the grievance was the possibility for criminals to be extradited to Chinese mainland.
In the case of convoy protests, the grievance was the vaccine mandate in order to work a trucking job that's mostly solitary with minimal human contact.
Doesn’t that create an adverse incentive for companies to not grow (invest to make more money) even if they could? YouTube for example might still be stuck in the 480p era if Google hasn’t laid all those Ocean cables on its own dime...
