為什麼加拿大可以轉向支援比特幣

傳聞杜魯道退出之際，民調顯示自由黨支持率顯著下降。根據CBC 新聞的民調追蹤器顯示，皮埃爾·普利耶夫爾(Pierre Poilievre) 領導的官方反對黨保守黨已經取得23% 的領先優勢，如果今天舉行選舉，預計他們將獲得44% 的選票。

Justin Trudeau might step down soon, opening the door for a more Bitcoin-friendly government in Canada.

賈斯汀·杜魯道可能很快就會下台，為加拿大建立一個對比特幣更友善的政府打開大門。

According to several reports, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau may soon step down, potentially opening the door for a more Bitcoin-friendly government.

據多份報導稱，加拿大總理賈斯汀·特魯多可能很快就會下台，這可能為一個對比特幣更加友好的政府打開大門。

As reported by Reuters, Trudeau is “increasingly likely to announce he intends to step down,” although no final decision has been made. A source familiar with the matter told the news agency that the decision could come as early as Monday, adding that Trudeau’s departure would leave the ruling Liberal Party without a permanent leader ahead of a looming election deadline.

據路透社報道，特魯多“宣布打算辭職的可能性越來越大”，但尚未做出最終決定。一位知情人士告訴該通訊社，這項決定最早可能在周一做出，並補充說，杜魯多的離職將使執政的自由黨在即將到來的選舉最後期限之前沒有永久領導人。

Trudeau's rumored exit coincides with polls signaling a notable decline in Liberal support. According to CBC News’ Poll Tracker, the official opposition Conservatives led by Pierre Poilievre have built a commanding 23% lead, with projected 44% of the vote going to them if an election were held today. Notably, Poilievre has voiced pro-Bitcoin sentiments in the past and might usher in policies more welcoming of digital assets.

傳聞杜魯道退出之際，民調顯示自由黨支持率顯著下降。根據 CBC 新聞的民調追蹤顯示，皮埃爾·普利耶夫領導的官方反對黨保守黨已經取得了 23% 的領先優勢，如果今天舉行選舉，預計他們將獲得 44% 的選票。值得注意的是，Poilievre 過去曾表達過支持比特幣的情緒，並可能會推出更歡迎數位資產的政策。

BTC Inc CEO David Bailey, who was instrumental in “orange pilling” US President-elect Donald Trump’s, has fueled the rumors, stating via X today that “Pierre Poilievre will deliver Canada a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.”

BTC 公司執行長大衛貝利(David Bailey) 在美國候任總統唐納德川普(Donald Trump) 的「橙色丸」行動中發揮了重要作用，他今天透過X 表示「皮埃爾·波利耶夫(Pierre Poilievre) 將向加拿大提供戰略比特幣儲備”，這加劇了謠言。

Bailey and other experts on X note that this echoes Trump’s own plans: during his campaign at the Bitcoin 2024 Conference, he spoke of establishing a “national stockpile” for seized BTC and even floated the idea of paying off the US national debt with BTC.

Bailey 和X 上的其他專家指出，這與川普自己的計劃相呼應：在比特幣2024 年會議上的競選期間，他談到為扣押的BTC 建立“國家儲備”，甚至提出了用BTC 償還美國國債的想法。

Poilievre's history with BTC advocacy is well documented. He once argued that Bitcoin could enable Canadians to “opt out of inflation,” at a time when 1 BTC hovered around $40,000. Since then, the the BTC price has surged, reaching a high of over $108,000 at one point a – 170% surge. Poilievre famously showcased his support for Bitcoin by purchasing shawarma with Bitcoin in March 2022, quipping that “you’ll never believe how [a shop owner] outsmarted government to beat inflation. Today, I'm buying lunch from him—and bringing my Bitcoin wallet.”

Poilievre 提倡 BTC 的歷史是有據可查的。他曾經辯稱，當 1 BTC 徘徊在 40,000 美元左右時，比特幣可以讓加拿大人「選擇擺脫通貨膨脹」。此後，BTC 價格飆升，一度達到 108,000 美元以上的高位，漲幅達 170%。 Poilievre 於 2022 年 3 月用比特幣購買了沙瓦瑪，以此展示了他對比特幣的支持，並打趣道：「你永遠不會相信（店主）如何比政府更聰明地戰勝通貨膨脹。今天，我要從他那裡買午餐，並帶上我的比特幣錢包。

He also posted via X in April 2022: “The Bank Of Canada says Bitcoin-ers lack financial literacy. This from the same people who promised we'd have “deflation” right before inflation hit a 30 year high. It is our central bank that is financially illiterate,” as well as “Money-printing deficits make our wages “go up in smoke”. #JustinFlation. We need sound money again—and also the freedom for buyers and sellers to choose Bitcoin and other technology.”

他還在 2022 年 4 月透過 X 發文表示：「加拿大央行表示比特幣持有者缺乏金融知識。這句話出自那些在通膨觸及 30 年來新高之前承諾我們會出現「通貨緊縮」的人的口中。是我們的央行沒有金融知識”，而且“印鈔赤字讓我們的工資‘化為泡影’”。 #賈斯汀通貨膨脹。我們再次需要穩健的貨幣，也需要買家和賣家選擇比特幣和其他技術的自由。

Despite BTC's strong performance, Poilievre faced criticism from the Liberal Party and other political adversaries. Critics labeled his stance a political wedge issue, prompting him to go relatively quiet on the matter.

儘管 BTC 表現強勁，但 Poilievre 仍面臨自由黨和其他政治對手的批評。批評者將他的立場稱為政治楔子問題，促使他在此事上相對安靜。

However, in a November 2024 speech, Poilievre argued that Canadians “should be free to decide whether or not they want to use Bitcoin,” adding that he had no desire to “ban Bitcoin” like some other nations. He has also been a vocal opponent of Central Bank Digital Currencies, once stating emphatically, “There will be NO Central Bank Digital Currency.”

然而，在 2024 年 11 月的一次演講中，Poilievre 認為加拿大人“應該自由決定是否想要使用比特幣”，並補充說他不想像其他一些國家那樣“禁止比特幣”。他也一直是央行數位貨幣的直言不諱的反對者，曾強調「不會有央行數位貨幣」。

While no official plans or policies have been confirmed, the possibility of a BTC reserve appears closer than ever for Canada. If Trudeau does step down and Poilievre becomes the next prime minister, many in the BTC sphere believe Canada could follow in the footsteps of emerging pro-BTC policymakers on the global stage.

雖然官方計劃或政策尚未得到確認，但對加拿大來說，建立比特幣儲備的可能性似乎比以往任何時候都更接近。如果杜魯道確實下台，波利耶夫成為下一任總理，比特幣領域的許多人相信加拿大可能會追隨全球舞台上新興支持比特幣政策制定者的腳步。
