Because our fearless leader with the nice hair ( I wonder how many mirrors he wears out in a month?) insists on hiring stupid ***** (but they're"woke"), buying stupid **** (like fighter jets and pipelines) and subsidizing stupid **** (like Bombardier, Air Canada, CBC and oil companies). And we keep electing the same good lookers because we are fascinated by shiny things and sound bites. How about we elect a plain but smart person, pay them performance bonuses and keep them accountable with severe penalty clauses for negligence, incompetence, influence peddling, cronyism, unethical actions, etc.? It's a fact: plain-looking people really do work harder, perform better and have better outcomes.
