Justin Trudeau is already getting it wrong on Trump

We’re going to be fine, just fine. That’s the message coming from the Trudeau government in the wake of Donald Trump’s decisive comeback.

Just so there’s no doubt, Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland put it like this last week: “I want to say with utter sincerity and conviction to Canadians that Canada will be absolutely fine.”

Maybe it’s just me, but when people tell me they’re speaking with utter sincerity and conviction it leaves me with the nagging feeling that maybe there’s a bit of a question mark over both their sincerity and their conviction. As in: aren’t you trying a bit too hard here?
