TORONTO – Elezioni federali: due “parolone” che farebbero pensare ad una grande, impeccabile organizzazione. Se non fosse per le testimonianze che arrivano dai seggi, dopo il voto di lunedì. È il caso del seggio della York Humber High School, al numero 100 di Emmett Avenue, York. Una scrutatrice, che ci ha fornito anche la documentazione fotografica a supporto del suo racconto, descrive una situazione di caos totale…
Nessun mandato chiaro dopo il 20 settembre
TORONTO – Non ci sono esperti obiettivi per interpretare, e soprattutto mettere in pratica, i risultati di queste ultime elezioni in Canada. Alcuni osservatori sono più informati di altri sui precedenti. Ma, trattandosi di un atto politico e non di una decisione esecutiva di un tribunale, tutto è negoziabile, entro limiti generalmente accettati…

Il clima d’incertezza rimane anche dopo le elezioni federali
TORONTO – Le elezioni federali non hanno risolto il clima d’incertezza che caratterizza la politica canadese dal 2019. Lo strappo voluto da Justin Trudeau, con il salto nel buio rappresentato dal voto anticipato durante la quarta ondata delle pandemia, non ha portato chiarezza nei rapporti di forza tra i partiti e gli equilibri politici alla House of Commons. A conclusione di questa tornata elettorale ci troviamo esattamente dove eravamo partiti: con un governo di minoranza, con le opposizioni troppo deboli per sabotare l’agenda politica del primo ministro liberale e con un elettorato frammentato e diviso…

Ford: “Green Pass against lockdowns”
TORONTO – They are necessary but will be temporary. At the moment, in essence, according to the premier of Ontario, in the face of the entry into force of vaccination passes, all that remains is to make a good face to bad game. “It is a very important measure to combat the disease – Ford reiterated today during a conference a few hours after the implementation of the measure – the Green Pass is essential to avoid another lockdown in the province but it is an interim measure”.

Coronavirus divides Canada in half
TORONTO – Canada literally split in half in this fourth wave of the Covid-19 pandemic. On the one hand, Ontario and Quebec where infections seem to gradually slow down, day after day. On the other, Alberta and Saskatchewan where the virus is rampant. Continue reading→
Toronto, chaos at the polling station: “Partisan scrutineers and strange phone calls”
TORONTO – Federal elections: two “big words” that would suggest a great, impeccable organization. Not so much, really, listening to the testimonies coming from the polling stations after Monday’s vote. This is the case of the York Humber High School seat at 100 Emmett Avenue, York, in Toronto. A scrutineer, who contacted the editorial staff of the Italian newspaper Corriere Canadese and also sent photographic documentation to support her story, describes a situation of total chaos.

Political uncertainty remains even after the federal elections
TORONTO – The federal elections have not resolved the climate of uncertainty that has characterized Canadian politics since 2019. The tear wanted by Justin Trudeau, with the leap in the dark represented by the early vote during the fourth wave of the pandemic, has not brought clarity in the balance of power between the parties and the political balances to the House of Commons. At the end of this election we find ourselves exactly where we started: with a minority government, with the oppositions too weak to sabotage the political agenda of the liberal prime minister and with a fragmented and divided electorate.

No clear mandate for anything post September 20 election
TORONTO – There are no objective experts to interpret, and more importantly apply, the results of this latest election in Canada. Some observers are more informed about precedent than others. But, this being a political act and not an enforceable decision of a Court, everything is negotiable, within generally accepted boundaries. Continue reading→
