Justine Trudeau is a sad joke. He was always understood to be a sad joke by anyone who knew what was going on, but unfortunately most voters are clueless, and voted for him because of his father's reputation ... which, by the way, was undeserved. Pierre Trudeau was a big fish in a little pond. I remember the first time he spoke before the US Congress. He looked like a little boy speaking in front of a room full of adults. The impression he made was underwhelming, and little Justine takes after his crazy mother, not his father.

"Think about it: he claims to be pro-Indigenous, utterly transparent and conspicuously feminist. Today, we heard that his office jettisoned an Indigenous female cabinet minister for having asserted her ministry’s sovereignty by way of whispered threats and constant harassment from an unelected cabal within the PMO."

"“I think he [Trudeau] is gonna find a way to get it done one way or another. So, he is in that kinda mood and I wanted you to be aware of that,” she remembered Wernick telling her on December 19, in a quote that might have been lifted from The Godfather. With this stick came the carrot, courtesy of Trudeau chief of staff Katie Telford: a stable of Liberal Party hacks ready to pen opinion pieces in favour of giving SNC-Lavalin a break, to be offered up to newspapers across the country. This, from a government that claims to hate the manipulation of the media and the propagation of fake news."
