The beginning of autumn is generally nice. The poet John Keats had a phrase for that period — “season of mists and mellow fruitfulness.” But as Mr. Fall gets his teeth into it, hits the meteorological gas pedal so to speak, and sends out a clear invitation to Mr. Winter — well, in Canada anyway, it ain’t mellow by a long shot. Short days, long nights, chill winds, early snows — mid to the end of November in most places here is like a movie preview of the harder days of February.
Chinese leader Xi Jinping’s “dismissive” behaviour towards Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at the G20 summit is a result of the Liberal government’s failure to treat national security issues seriously, says Conservative Senator Leo Housakos. Other Tory lawmakers are calling for stronger actions to address Beijing’s interference in Canada.
Xi Jinping’s threatening rebuke of Justin Trudeau was a rare and surprising move by the Chinese president, and highlighted the disregard he has for the Canadian prime minister, according to some experts and former diplomats.
“He certainly wouldn’t speak like that to the U.S. president. So it does suggest that Mr. Xi has a degree of disdain for the prime minister and does not see Canada as an important partner,” said Charles Burton, senior fellow with the Macdonald-Laurier Institute and a former diplomat to China.
Xi called out Justin for being a spineless hypocrite same as Canadians do.
Even as President Xi Jinping criticized the PM at the G20 summit, Canada is still trying to do business with Beijing.
Any reasonable observer would have to admit that until Wednesday, anyway, the Liberal government had been doing quite a good job of putting a bold and rosy gloss on the humiliations, embarrassments and scandals that have lately encumbered its foundational policy of kowtowing to China’s Xi Jinping in the hopes of winning trade advantages and global-statesman status for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
Canadian politicians and China experts have offered their observations on Chinese leader Xi Jinping’s confrontation with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at the G-20 summit on Nov. 16, when Xi told Trudeau that he shouldn’t have “leaked” details of their conversation to the media the day before.
Toe-curling footage has emerged of Chinese President Xi Jinping humiliating Justin Trudeau with a dressing down on the sidelines of the G20 conference.
The two leaders were caught on camera having a heated discussion at the global summit in Bali today, with Xi tearing into the Canadian Prime Minister.
Xi appeared visibly frustrated as he confronted Trudeau about how details of an earlier meeting between them, which was held yesterday, had been leaked to the press by Canadian government sources.
Once again Junior embarrasses Canada.
Chinese President Xi Jinping accuses Trudeau of ‘leaking’ details of conversation to media
Chinese President Xi Jinping has accused Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of behaving inappropriately by leaking the substance of a conversation between the two leaders to the media.
The accusations came as the pair crossed paths in a public space in Bali, Indonesia, where both leaders are attending the G20 summit.
“Everything we discuss has been leaked to the paper; that’s not appropriate,” Xi told Trudeau through an interpreter.
I bet Junior hoped this staged photo-op would make him appear heroic, instead Xi comes across as a teacher dealing with an irritating attention seeking student.
Sickening that Justin sucks Xi’s dick on behalf of Canada’s China class by whining about still wishing to participate in China’s economic hegemony.

According to a senior government source, Trudeau initiated a conversation with Xi following a morning meeting of world leaders in Bali, Indonesia. It last a few minutes, and the leaders discussed the election reports, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and North Korea.
They agreed to keep in touch, the source said; Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly also spoke with her Chinese counterpart on Tuesday.
Trudeau left out in the cold as China’s Xi engages in a whirlwind of diplomacy at G20
After over two years without leaving his country, Chinese President Xi Jinping isn’t missing the chance for in-person diplomacy as he joins other world leaders at the G20 Summit in Bali, Indonesia, this week.
Following a highly anticipated summit with U.S. President Joe Biden on Monday, Mr. Xi will meet with the leaders of Australia and Japan, as well as Indonesian President Joko Widodo.
Not on the list however, is Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
The fall session of Parliament kicked off this week, as Members of Parliament flooded into the Ottawa airport from all corners of the country in anticipation of taking their seats in the House of Commons.
While the faceoff between newly minted Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre and Justin Trudeau was supposed to be the main attraction, Thursday’s Question Period failed to garner anywhere near as much attention as a video of the Prime Minister belting out Bohemian Rhapsody, on the eve of the Queen’s funeral in England.
To say outrage ensued over the 14 second video, frankly, would be an understatement.
In his propaganda about supposed child graves, Raisi is merely reading our own misinformation back to us.
When dictators are called out by the international community for perpetrating human-rights abuses, they often attempt to deflect criticism by accusing their Western critics of hypocrisy. In April, for instance, China denounced the US State Department’s annual Country Report on Beijing’s human-rights practices as “a pretense the U.S. government uses to cover up its agenda of seeking hegemony” over such nations as Afghanistan. “The U.S. should immediately cease making irresponsible remarks,” said Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian. “Instead, it needs to reflect on itself, mend its ways, and work earnestly to improve its own human-rights situation.”
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he is willing to help ensure women in the United States who want an abortion can get one.
“We will make sure we continue to fight for better health and reproductive rights all around the world. It used to mean being there to fight for health and reproductive rights in the global south. We’ll help out in the United States if we need to as well,” Trudeau told reporters at the United Nations on Wednesday.
Maybe he thinks he’s running in the mid-terms?
So by leftist standards of Alberta man Vs. Chrystia Freeland, is this an act of unparalleled misogyny and violent hate speech? How will Trudeau cope with this abuse!? Should this British man be investigated for criminal harassment? #TrudeauMustGo #TrudeauResign pic.twitter.com/P23S3aExou

Justin Trudeau’s office has defended the Canadian PM, after he was filmed singing by a piano in a London hotel, two days before the Queen’s funeral.
In a video shared on social media, the prime minister can be seen singing Bohemian Rhapsody by the British rock band, Queen.
The Queen was Canada’s head of state, and Mr Trudeau designated 19 September a national day of mourning in Canada.
Critics accused the PM of a lack of respect – but others defended him.
The world sees him as a twit, pity he is largely shielded by Canada’s compromised media.
‘I see a little silhouetto of a man, Scaramouch, Scaramouch, will you do the Fandango!’ — Canadian Prime Minster Justin Trudeau on the passing of Queen Elizabeth II.
O Canada, you must be so proud.
As we’ve all seen by now, pretty-boy Prime Minister Trudeau was caught on camera (possibly drunkenly) singing Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody (and poorly at that) in a hotel bar on Saturday night before the state funeral for Queen Elizabeth II in London on Monday.
