Rex Murphy: Where is Alberta’s anti-Trudeau election uproar?

The date for the vote in Alberta approaches. From what I hear, it is a real contest, with no overwhelming signals that either NDP Leader Rachel Notley or UCP Leader Danielle Smith are poised for anything like a landslide.

Which I find strange. However, being an outsider, and having long been familiar with the rule that one cannot judge or make even a good guess on an election in a province other than your own, my impressions have little grounding.

Italy’s Meloni rejects criticism from Groomer Trudeau over LGBTQ2S+ rights at G7 Summit

Note – Surrogate birth is a contentious issue in Italy and to my knowledge remains illegal as the court has declared it demeaning to women. Pic is from Libero, Google translated

ROME – Italy’s “far-right” Premier Giorgia Meloni on Sunday rejected criticism from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at the G7 Summit about her government’s stance on LGBTQ+ rights.

A reporter asked Meloni about the criticism at a news conference early Sunday in Hiroshima, Japan, which is hosting the annual summit of leaders from seven of the world’s leading industrialized nations.

Meloni should have kicked PM Groomer in the nutz.

If looks could kill.

Trudeau’s wide-stance pose with Korean politician splits critics

Justin Trudeau’s hair has made international headlines, as have his fumbling handshakes and propensity to appear shirtless when cameras are near. Now, the Canadian prime minister’s well-mannered legs are getting their moment in the spotlight

Ahead of the G7 summit in Hiroshima, Trudeau and a delegation of Canadian ministers were in South Korea to celebrate the 60th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries, as well as an attempt to salvage a multibillion-dollar battery plant deal.

Peter MacKay: Trudeau’s cynical gutting of Canadian history

When U.S. President Joe Biden addressed the Canadian Parliament in March, one phrase caught my attention: “A country,” he said, quoting former president Barack Obama, “is never more optimistic than its president or its leaders.” It was a message that was evidently lost on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Trudeau’s ‘coronation gift’ is just lip service to the monarchy

Cynically dressed up as a coronation-related gift to the Canadian nation, just days after the coronation, the country’s leader Justin Trudeau has unveiled a Royal Crown of Canada.

Not a physical gold and jewelled crown, mind you, but a virtual crown, designed to replace St Edward’s crown – the very crown placed on the King’s head a week ago – on Canada’s coat of arms, official documents, and armed forces and Mountie badges and insignia.

Everyone despises this cretin.

Canada drops ‘Defender of the Faith’ from King’s title

Canada has dropped “Defender of the Faith” from the King’s title as part of a push to modernise the monarch’s role as head of state.

The measure to remove the traditional “defender” role from the title was carried out in Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s recent budget bill and it represents the first time since Confederation that there will be no explicit reference to the monarch’s Christian faith.

COVID Vaccination Was Coerced, and No Amount of Spin Will Change That

Coercion is not choice.

It is unfortunate we have to continue to have this discussion and with the prime minister, no less.

During a recent question and answer session with students at the University of Ottawa, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said that nobody was ever forced to be vaccinated and implied it is his role as prime minister to keep Canadians safe.

Trudeau Defends COVID Vaccination Record, But Says Some ‘Probably Got Very Sick’ From Jabs

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says his COVID-19 vaccination policy helped Canada get through the pandemic and criticized related “misinformation and disinformation,” but he also said some people experienced side effects from the shots.

“The challenge that we have now is that increasingly, misinformation and disinformation [are] carrying people to believe things that are untrue. Vaccinations [are] a perfect example of it,” Trudeau said on April 24 while having an armchair discussion with German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier at the University of Ottawa.

GOLDSTEIN: Canada’s global citizen off to save the planet – again

Because what the world needs now is another global gabfest on saving the planet, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is heading off later this week to attend a “Global Citizen NOW” celebrity, fly-in conference in New York.

This in the wake of a scathing report by the federal environment commissioner condemning his government for failing to achieve its own targets for reducing industrial greenhouse gas emissions, planting trees, protecting species at risk and strengthening biodiversity, despite committing more than $200 billion of taxpayers’ money to that effort so far.

Like Father Like Son …

How views of Pierre Trudeau led RCMP to provide first close security for an ex-PM

OTTAWA – With threats against Prime Minister Justin Trudeau spiking in recent years, newly released historical records reveal the security concerns the RCMP had when his father was getting ready to leave office.

Pierre Trudeau retired in 1984 after serving as prime minister for two stints adding up to 15 years. He had been first elected in 1968.

As Trudeau prepared to retire, records show that security officials did not see any current threats against him — but that they believed his track record could invite future ones.

Deservedly the most hated PM ever …
