Second plane sent to bring Trudeau home from luxury Jamaica vacation after breakdown

Friday’s return home from his Christmas vacation in Jamaica didn’t go smoothly for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau: The CC-144 Challenger business jet that took him there on Boxing Day broke down, requiring the RCAF to dispatch a rescue plane to get the relatively new aircraft back in the sky.

It was the second time in nearly four months that a breakdown prompted the Royal Canadian Air Force to dispatch rescue aircraft to bring home Canada’s prime minister from an overseas visit.

Make him take a bus next time.

… She assured me repeatedly that the call was being made out of concern for my safety. But what about our collective safety as Jews, I asked her, in the wake of repeated and ugly encounters with the pro-Hamas, anti-Israel crowds whose hatred of Israel was well beyond that particular border, and was increasingly being activated against local Jewish businesses and individuals?

The constable asked me for my plan. When I said I planned to walk back and forth across a crosswalk to delay this cavalcade, I was told that it is illegal to block roadways.

When I pointed out that over the past months Victoria roadways were blocked on a weekly basis, she replied, “We can’t arrest 500 people.”

She’s had her moment of clarity.

The police will not protect you if you attend a counter protest. You will be treated as a public nuisance and told to move along for your own safety.

McDonald’s has been targeted by pro-Palestinan campaigners after photos and videos on social media showed franchised stores in Israel giving free meals to the nation’s soldiers following the October 7 Hamas attack.
