Trudeau brand is that he’s a typical Liberal politician.  Promise anything to get into power and not deliver.  It seems to be a good strategy, but he certainly isn’t anything special as far as politicians go.

I think seniors rich and poor are getting $500 for free this month to help with the economic hardship that has resulted from the massive gains in everyone's RRSPs over the last year, so there's that to vote for.

I'm pleasantly surprised to see that Waldo has not found a way to blame O'Toole and Singh for TofinoGate.

Yes.

He's a narcissistic sociopath.

Imagine if he screwed off for vacay on Remembrance Day and stood up veterans?

He friggin created this holiday and made no public appearances the day of as far as i'm aware of, the very first year of the holiday.  He just won re-election, what does he care?  Most indigenous and Canadians can't stand him anyways.  I'm sure he figures people will forget by next election.

Who voted for these fools?

Tofino Gate?

ya, that's where the sadSackMedia significantly shifted the focus away from the indigenous; away from reconciliation! The day before and the evening before, PM Trudeau attended related events... and the day of was on the phone with an assortment of indigenous persons/leaders. And in that day for so-called quiet introspection, we had a Global News azzhole chasing down PM Trudeau in Tofino - followed up with a full-on media onslaught that took over what should have been a day for the indigenous and a day for the non-indigenous to give thoughtful consideration towards the meaning of reconciliation... notwithstanding the BCchequeLady's want to get her partisan licks in!

on that day, perhaps the BCchequeLady can relate how she personally examined her own thoughts & emotions concerning reconciliation! LOL!

I see, it wasn't Singh or O'Toole's fault, it was the MEDIA's fault for reporting that Trudeau turned down TWO invites to go to Kamloops on the first T&R Day and went to Tofino instead.

I am wondering if the trip to Tofino was to mull over retiring. His family must be close to having had enough and he is missing out on his children's growing up. Just my hunch. I also predicted Secretary Clinton would crush Mr. Trump.

Meh about Clinton... you and the rest of the world thought Clinton would crush Trump.  I remember I was watching my friend's kids that night and as she was leaving I said I'm not worried in the least about him winning.  To this day it's still hard to believe that really happened. 

Interesting take about Trudeau retiring.  My first thought is he's too ego driven but perhaps that'd be another reason for it.  He doesn't want to ever lose an election.

After the Dion/Iganatieff disasters, I think he probably feels some kind of personal responsibility for the party too.  He pretty much IS the Liberal Party, it's not really about their policies at this point. 

The thought of all the shattered hearts if he were to step away... one right here on this forum.

While you'd have us believe the problem is the media, the truth is that the real problem is that yer boy couldn't wait ONE FUCKEN DAY longer to get to the beach.  The media's job isn't to keep Justin's secrets. The media's job is to report on him.  This is his fault and his alone. Why did he do this?  Even the Justin's kids probably knew how bad this would look. Why didn't he?

Why wasn't it an option to go to Kamloops to attend the ceremonies on THURSDAY and going to Tofino on FRIDAY?

Why did the Prime Minister's published agenda lie about his plans and whereabouts for Thursday?

And, is the Prime Minister so stupid that he didn't realize how bad the optics of renting an $18 million mansion for a surf vacation on Truth And Reconciliation Day would be?  Or does he just not care?


on that day, perhaps the BCchequeLady can relate how she personally examined her own thoughts & emotions concerning reconciliation! LOL!

I have to point out that unlike your hero, BC_Cheque didn't campaign for election as "the reconciliation guy".

And I have to point out that unlike your hero, BC_Cheque doesn't have a duty to represent our nation at important events.

Maybe if BC_Cheque had a responsibility to represent our nation in these matters your question would have some relevance. Instead you should ask that question of the guy who DOES have that responsibility, namely your hero. 

I see, it wasn't Singh or O'Toole's fault, it was the MEDIA's fault for reporting that Trudeau turned down TWO invites to go to Kamloops on the first T&R Day and went to Tofino instead. 

Yes. Obviously, the Prime Minister's inability to act like an adult wouldn't be an issue if the media would just stop reporting on it.

And, nothing short of full-on Rosemary Bartonesque fawning meets the waldo's threshold for fair media coverage of the golden one.

LOL! Let the PMTrudeauHater's roll on! The waldo is shocked this is being led by the likes of haterkimmy & the chequeLady - shocked I tells ya!

waldo protip: leaders of political parties aren't personally actively managing their itineraries... actively working their schedules. It's called a PMO for a reason and the most recent iteration had at least 45 personnel within it; from Chief of Staff & Deputy Chief of Staff (each with multiple assistants), Parliamentary Secretary (with multiple staffers), Principal Secretary (with multiple staff assistants), Director of Communications (with multiple Deputy Directors & assistants & media relations personnel), Director of Strategic Communications, multiple senior advisors, research personnel, marketing specialists, translators, speech writers, Director of Appointments (with assorted staff therein), Director of Tours and Scheduling (with multiple assistants therein), Director of Operations (with Deputies and assistants therein), Director of Issues Management,  Director of Policy (with multiple assistants), etc., etc., etc..

ya, that's where the sadSackMedia significantly shifted the focus away from the indigenous; away from reconciliation! The day before and the evening before, PM Trudeau attended related events... and the day of was on the phone with an assortment of indigenous persons/leaders. And in that day for so-called quiet introspection, we had a Global News azzhole chasing down PM Trudeau in Tofino - followed up with a full-on media onslaught that took over what should have been a day for the indigenous and a day for the non-indigenous to give thoughtful consideration towards the meaning of reconciliation... notwithstanding the BCchequeLady's want to get her partisan licks in!

and you member kimmy - perhaps you can relate just how much reconciliation meant... means... to you, hey! LOL!

try these on for conservative leaning: LilleyPad (aka Brian Lilley), Lorne Gunter, Lorrie Goldstein, Warren Kinsella (yes, that's right - he has gone to dark side... long ago!!!), Andrew Coyne, Chris Selley, Colby Cosh, Barbara Kay, Diane Francis (big time waste of Financial Times space), of course Rex Murphy, Don Baird, Ezrant (aka Ezra Levant, shrillManExtraordinaire), Keean Bexte (miniShrillMan), Don Martin, Robert Fife (kingAzzhole), John Ibbitson, John Ivison (another megaAzzole), David Akin, Craig Oliver, Evan Solomon, Mercedes Stephenson... and, typically, anyone writing for, 'The Post Millennial', the latest rage-baiter for the right-wing, etc., etc., etc..

in the waldo's recent cursory collective review of conMedia, how did I ever miss the G&M's Urback - such a charmer she is!

Government Marks First National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

Quote
The federal government holds an evening ceremony on Parliament Hill on the eve of Canada's first National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. The new federal statutory holiday on September 30 honours the Indigenous children who died while attending residential schools, survivors, families, and communities affected by the legacy of Canada's residential school system. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is among those taking part in the event in Ottawa. He is joined by Savanna McGregor, acting Grand Chief of the Algonquin Anishnabeg Nation, Elder Claudette Commanda, and residential school survivors Celine Thusky, Elder Levinia Brown and Jimmy Durocher. The establishment of a statutory holiday was one of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s 94 calls to action for the government. (September 29, 2021)
