Justin Trudeau's throne speech could not have come at a better time.
As the second wave of a murderous pandemic threatens to engulf us, many Canadians are frightened and losing hope for a better tomorrow.
So what Trudeau had to say mattered.
Justin Trudeau's throne speech could not have come at a better time.
As the second wave of a murderous pandemic threatens to engulf us, many Canadians are frightened and losing hope for a better tomorrow.
So what Trudeau had to say mattered.
I had hoped, after all that heroic work by our frontline medical workers, and all that isolation misery, that we would be further ahead in our battle to tame COVID-19.
But sadly we're not. We're falling back in many places in Canada.
People are fighting over whether or not they should be wearing masks.
And the virus is surging.
Donald Trump tried to bully Justin Trudeau from the moment they first met.
And in early August he tried again, by slapping tariffs on Canadian aluminum.
But if he thought he could bully Trudeau and this country, and get away with it, he was sadly mistaken.
Because (most) Canadians and their leader don't intimidate easily.
The other day I went out for a bike ride, and at the end of my street came across Justin Trudeau.
He was attending an event to announce a new loan program for black owned businesses.
But all any of the ratty members of the Con media wanted to know, was whether he was planning an early election.
And this is what Trudeau had to say about that.
It's an absolute freak show. A real fascist circus, where Erin O'Toole tries to fool Canadians into believing that he's really a nice guy.
While the Con clowns in the media lick him like a lollipop, and would have us believe that he's not just a nice guy, he's also compassionate.
When in fact he is neither.
But of course, they can't fool me, because I know that O'Toole is not what he wants to make us believe.
He's a shameless opportunist, a third-rate Trump impersonator, who likes or liked to be called True Blue O'Toole.
For he knows what might happen to him if he loses.
So a high level group of politicians, civil servants, media experts, and strategists decided to build a series of war games to try to figure out what might happen.
And some of the results were terrifying.
So he's trying to convince people that he's a nice guy, and definitely NOT Andrew Scheer.
But the more things change, the more they don't.
And I'm sure Scheer is loving this one.
He must be finally realizing that he could lose, and end up in a jail cell for all his crimes against America.
So over the weekend, he fired off a barrage of tweets which only served to show how desperate he must be.
