让老头和老土豆都有gut。

The Shawinigan Handshake
It was on an unassuming Flag Day in 1996 when an incident would happen that would become part of Canadian lore. It has been parodied, debated and much more. It was the Shawinigan Handshake, and tod…

Unfortunately, at the time the federal government had been slashing its budget to deal with the fiscal crisis in 1994. Canada had also seen its credit rating fall between 1992 and 1994. Chretien and the Minister of Finance, Paul Martin, were looking to cut the deficit anyway they could and that included overhauling the unemployment insurance program.
Following the speech, Chretien made his way to his limousine after shaking hands in the crowd and it was there that he was confronted by a protestor named Bill Clennett. As Clennett approached and yelled “Chretien, you should be unemployed!”, Chretien grabbed him by the back of the neck and the chin, threw him to the ground and broke one of his teeth in the process. Another protestor came forward to block Chretien’s path to the limousine. Chretien then knocked the megaphone out of the protestor’s hand and the protestor was tackled by the RCMP.
第一次知道这个,而且在加拿大攻击示威者,把一个示威者牙齿都打掉了,还可以抽身而退,看来以前民众对政客非常宽容。
看了一下新闻,这个发生是因为当时政府赤字,裁减政府开支和福利,自由党虽然是左派但是当时干的是右派的事 ,结果左派示威群众只是喊了口号就被他锁喉打掉牙齿,确实老头有gut.
那次消减开支以后,联邦政府迎来了很长一段时间的财政盈余, 对于很多反对者,政策执行者确实要采取铁腕。
现在的政客,都是想讨好每个人,结果一事无成
