A teary-eyed and weepy Prime Minister Justin Trudeau took the coward’s way out today, denying Canadians the opportunity to cast direct judgment on his leadership at the ballot box.
It was inevitable. Trudeau II has been a zombie prime minister for well more than a year now, and it has been glaringly obvious to all but himself and the most delusional of TruAnons. The pressure was overwhelming, but it was allowed to take this long — leaving Canada dangerously exposed at a moment of national crisis — because the even more cowardly Liberal caucus refused to do the obvious thing and remove him. Instead, they released anonymously signed, kindly worded letters “asking” Trudeau to “consider” maybe, eventually, retiring.
