Canadians are trying to assess today whether Obama has saved Trudeau. Quite possibly he has. Trudeau probably wont get a majority but can cobble a coalition together with the New Dem Party. Obama knows that someone has to look out for Baby Justin.
Canada's Trudeau, in election fight, says he needs voter support to stand up to Trump Tinkerbell is telling voters that he needs help in standing up to Trump. I wonder how his statements there square with the posting we see from Canadians here that assure us that Americans have no impact on Canadian elections- not to mention Obama helping him to pull up his knickers. They might want to work on that a bit. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-...s-only-he-can-stand-up-to-trump-idUSKBN1WT1XR
Trump declared numerous times publicly that Canada was a "mean" trading partner who had "taken advantage" of the US on trade for many years. He also declared numerous Canadian companies a security threat to the US simply because they traded legally with the US. None of that was true in the slightest and it exhibited a very strange obsession with Canada at the time. Now it is true that Canadians value a leader that will stand squarely across from Trump and tell him to fuck off ( in more appropriate language ) when he gets out of hand. Just the same way that a Canadian like myself is always prepared to tell dumb asses Americans like you to fuck off when you post your ignorant ideas about Canada on this site. I realize this is all going way over your head but I can't fix the damage your parents and the American public school system have done to you and your life. All I can hope for is there are enough smart, rational Americans to marginalize dumb asses like you and Trump.
He may be one of the most ignorant characters we'll ever encounter on here. Reminds me of "achilles29" who pretended to be Canadian but I stand by my theory that he was either a Russian troll or an American fugitive from the law or perhaps his ex. No surprise the account became inactive eventually. I remember "achilles29" was the biggest cheerleader for Brexit how it was going to be some great victory for British citizens. Fast forward to now they had negative economic growth last month and there has been nothing but sheer chaos since. My point is nothing good comes from the ideas and beliefs of dumb asses on this planet; they may be able to broadcast them online now but if we are fortunate most of the damage exists in their personal life.
Yes indeed. Prime Minister Tinkerbell is certainly beginning to sweat in this last week of campaigning. We know that the Canadian lefties are hoping that Obama's last minute intervention will be enough to drag him over the finish line, and I acknowledge that that may very well be the case. Unless it isn't. Certainly Trudeau could not do it on his own merits. “Justin Trudeau. Not as advertised.” That pithy catchphrase, more than anything else, is why Trudeau is plumbing the polling depths, even more than Trump. Canadians have grown to believe that the former drama teacher is, indeed, just an actor. KINSELLA: Why Trudeau's popularity is plummeting Warren Kinsella Published:October 17, 2019 Updated:October 17, 2019 2:00 PM EDT U.S. President Donald Trump welcomes Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at the White House in Washington, U.S., June 20, 2019. REUTERS/Yuri Gripas Justin Trudeau is less popular than Donald Trump. Say it aloud, so that those still considering voting for Trudeau can hear you. Because, you know, Donald Trump. The most sexist, most racist, most dishonest U.S. president is more highly regarded than the Canadian prime minister. That’s hard to do, but Justin Trudeau has done it. As far back as March, Trump was doing better than Trudeau. In that month, Ipsos found Trump’s approval rating was 43%. Trudeau’s was 40%. In August, it got even worse. Zogby Analytics revealed that Trump had an approval rating of 51%. Trudeau was “underwater,” Zogby reported, at 43%. And Toronto Sun pollster John Wright, of DART, has analyzed the data and come up with the same conclusion as the others. “Trudeau’s personal approval numbers are below Trump’s,” says Wright. “So more selfies won’t help.” And therein lies the rub. Wright has put his finger on the zeitgeist: This election isn’t remotely about issues. It’s a referendum on Trudeau. And he’s been losing it. What went wrong? How is Trudeau — once the darling of international media, the beneficiary of Trudeaumania II, and the guy who propelled his party from a parliamentary third place to first — now facing what HuffPo’s Althia Raj, no less, has declared the “possibility he won’t be prime minister much longer.” How did that happen? Three reasons. The first: He over-promised and under-delivered. Trudeau did that a lot. On electoral reform, on balanced budgets, on ethical reform, on being the feminist champion and the indigenous reconciler: In every case, he promised the Earth but delivered only dust. Trudeau’s true legacy is seen in the Lavscam scandal, where he obliterated his credentials as the ethical paragon and liberator of women and indigenous peoples. There, he cravenly tried to rescue a Quebec-based Liberal Party donor facing a corruption trial — and, along the way, revealed himself more than willing to brutalize two women, one indigenous, who bravely stood up for the rule of law. Second reason: He thinks he’s far more charming and entertaining than he actually is. Some time ago, a member of Trudeau’s insular inner circle told this writer that one of their biggest problems was Trudeau’s unshakeable belief that he is funny. “He thinks he’s a comedian,” said this man. “He isn’t.” Thus, making blackface his go-to party favour. Thus, his puerile penchant for dress-up, even when it humiliates Canadians, as in the infamous Griswolds-style Indian vacation. Thus, his utterly bizarre penchant for making jokes — remember “peoplekind?” — that aren’t merely jokes. They’re jokes that render him one. The third and final reason that Trudeau is less popular than Trump is neatly, and expertly, mirrored in the Conservative Party’s shrewd attack ad slogan: Donald Trump, as detestable as he is to so many, is at least truthful about who he is. He doesn’t hide it. Justin Trudeau, meanwhile, wears blackface to parties. Because he’s never as comfortable as when he is wearing a mask.
