I See The Idiot Has Made Canada A Laughing Stock

A couple of the AB gals reckoned they swoon over this limp lettuce.
I presume they've never listened to him.

I don’t do swooning and I have listened and read about the Canadian Prime Minister. I’m old enough to remember when his father was PM and his mum was a bit of a hippy. I like this man and think that he is representing Canada very well. I like his style. Canada is the forgotten country "over there" and he’s putting it back on the map. This "limp lettuce" as you say, certainly put the orange one in his place.

I thought his dad was a dictator, xstitcher. ;)
I'm afraid we're never going to have a meeting of minds.

Trudeau is an honest, charming, intelligent man running a country I'd be proud to live in.

Trump .... isn't.

How many times did Justin meet the ethics commissioner?

[Spicerack]

'running a country I'd be proud to live in.'
Really, Dave. Personally I thought it was becoming a very oppressive state. You like Blasphemy Laws, imprisonment for having the wrong (ie. right) opinions? Who'd have thought.

[sunny-dave]

That would be the Blasphemy Law that Mr Trudeau's government abolished, then :

And this was just a motion in Parliament - not a 'bill' or 'law' - so has no actual impact on anyone, beyond encouraging a reduction in hate (which has to be a good thing?) :

@Talbot :

A minor peccadillo - which he now accepts was a mistake :

"I'm sorry I didn't [check with the commissioner before booking the vacation], and in the future I will be clearing all my family vacations with the commissioner".

Compare and contrast with the Orange One's routine response to criticism which runs along the lines of

"Never apologise, always denigrate/abuse the source of the criticism, fire them if you can"

A minor peccadillo - which he now accepts was a mistake :



That led to some great youtube compilations.

Erm, it was not just the gals swooning over Trudeau.

Coming from anyone that's pathetic. Coming from a major politician it's worrying.

// A 2015 piece by Haroon Siddiqui, the Toronto Star's editorial page editor emeritus, stated that: "Muslim Brotherhood is not a registered entity in Canada or the USA, nor does it have any branch in North America." For this assessment, Siddiqui was quoting Jamal Badawi. What Siddiqui did not mention was that Badawi is a member of the North American Muslim Brotherhood's Shura Council, according to the Muslim Brotherhood itself.//
//The Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, is being asked by the National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM, formerly known as CAIR CAN) to designate January 29 as a "National Day of Remembrance and Action on Islamophobia." If he does, it is an indicator that the Islamists in Canada have succeeded in their program of political expansion and influence to the point of now being able publicly to manipulate the Prime Minister's Office.//
//The current Executive Director of CAIR CAN/NCCM, Ihsaan Gardee, has tried to claim that CAIR USA and its Canadian chapter CAIR CAN/NCCM have no relationship. He has made this claim in media interviews to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and while testifying to the Parliament of Canada. This view is misleading. The US State Department has identified CAIR CAN/NCCM as the Canadian chapter of CAIR USA. CAIR USA has repeatedly claimed that CAIR CAN/NCCM is its "Canadian office." Most tellingly, CAIR CAN/NCCM made the following statement on its own website in 2003 referring to CAIR USA: "This Washington-based organization is CAIR CAN's parent organization." //

Oh Dear.

Paxman has a lot to answer for ...

... but it's cringe making, true enough.

Whereas youtube features virtually no examples of The Donlad making a prat of himself ... +=)

[naomi24]

sunny-dave, this isn't about Trump.

[sunny-dave]

Well Done Togo - a huge pile of *** this early in the day - you must have been on the all-bran.

The crucial word is that this bunch of chancers "asked" Mr Trudeau - as yet he appears to have made no reply.

[sunny-dave]

Indeed not Naomi - and I've addressed the OP too.

However the comparison is too inviting to miss - would you rather live in Canada or the US?

[MallyJ]

You do make me laugh................as does the DM with it's , er, interesting take on things and people !!!!!

[naomi24]

sunny-dave, //would you rather live in Canada or the US? //

Not that your question has anything to do with the OP either, but since I'm courteous I won't ignore it. I would rather live in the USA than Canada,

[sunny-dave]

Fair enough Naomi - thank you for your courtesy - it means we wouldn't be at each other's BBQ's then - but I'm sure we'd survive.

[naomi24]

Doubtless.

[Old_Geezer]

I guess we all do stupid embarrassing things at times. (We're not all PM's with a roomful of sychophants though.)
