What An Embarrassment

 


So Canada's Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, instead of condemning anti-Israeli demonstrators burning Montreal...


....was partying with Swifties in Toronto, like a frat boy.



He is truly an embarrassment.

A global embarrassment.


[Post Script:  the irony - or maybe the hypocrisy - is not only is he the Prime Minister of Canada, he actually represents a riding in Montreal, the city the pro-Palestinian, anti-NATO protesters are torching. Too busy partying to even care.]

Sorry, I call bullshit on your reporting, fake news, twisting the facts for a story.
From yesterday - Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has joined federal cabinet ministers and other politicians in condemning Friday night's anti-NATO demonstration in Montreal, calling the protesters' actions "appalling."

Montreal police say at least three people were arrested after protests by pro-Palestinian and anti-NATO demonstrators turned violent, with protesters throwing objects at police, lighting two vehicles on fire and breaking windows.

Police say they arrested a 22-year-old woman for obstructing police work and assaulting a police officer, as well as two men, 22 and 28, both for obstructing police work. All three were released and will appear in court at a later date.

Trudeau took to X Saturday afternoon to denounce the events that unfolded.

"What we saw on the streets of Montreal last night was appalling," he wrote. "Acts of antisemitism, intimidation, and violence must be condemned wherever we see them."

Sorry, any respectable world leader would not be partying like a fool while his own city burns 500 km's away. He would have been in Montreal condemning the actions of these despicable "protestors". By the way, he is getting ridicule from around the world.

Jim, I'm not sure where your hate for JT comes from. He got tickets, he's a dad, took his family, (I wouldn't call that partying like a fool, I know about that as I've been with some folks as we partied like fools), coincidence the uprising was the same night. Even if he was in Ottawa, at home, he wouldn't have gone to Montreal, too big a security issue that would have cost a fortune, more than Swift tickets and a night on the town with his family. No world leader would have gone to the site of a riot. Sheesh

Also, the riot started at 6pm and was over by 7pm. The only comments or condemnations were from PP and one Quebec Senator, the rest was just social media "outraged citizens' comments." Even Quebec's Premier commented on the morning after, as did JT. Doesn't sound very outrageous or disgusting or embarrassing to me. Why shouldn't JT and his teenage kids enjoy themselves dancing, which ain't exactly like partying like fools, at a concert? If he'd been at home in Ottawa, he might have heard about the riot about the same time as it was over, not much to say or do then other than what was said the next morning. What about the Mayor of Montreal or the Quebec Premier. Why isn't it embarrassing or shameful for them to have done or said nothing about a riot happening in their city and province? Please don't take this as me bashing you, that ain't it at all. I'm just at a loss as to why you seem to have such and anger about this. Cheers man, love ya.
