I know how this will sound coming from me, but I have to point out that Trudeau didn't seem too concerned about any of this until his own wife tested positive.

Politically he's lucky that there wasn't a bigger outbreak in Canada, because much of it would have been blamed on his early inaction, whether he deserved it or not.  Then he would have been toast.

Maybe...   i can’t read minds.  But i don’t think the message changed that much.

Are you sure?  Sophie tested positive on March 12, a Thursday, and between then and the following Monday everything went from business-as-usual to lockdown, if I recall. I was out on Tues March 17 looking for a green beer and the place near my office was open, but every other place was shut down, and the place by my office shut down the day after. Trudeau himself went into self isolation on March 13, I believe, and everything else clamped down shortly after that.

And the Feds followed suit shortly after...  same restrictions.

My only concern is that Canada acted later than it should have due to humming and hawing over the political consequences of restricting people’s behaviour/movements, or what it thought Chinese-Canadians might think.   Once this pandemic is done, hopefully the opposition parties get some answers. i don’t hold much hope that the NDP would be less PC though.

Dix was expressing his frustration over this for some time before the province finally gave up and did it on its own.

I can only wonder if the feds did it because they didn't want to be shown up by their BC counterparts.

I don't understand how someone who once wore blackface on no less than 3 occasions can now be so petrified to be seen as being a racist.  WTF happened between then and now?

You do have to wonder if they would have otherwise done it.

It makes me really effing PO'd at the thought of a leader who would rather risk people's lives than offend people.  Our PM has a psychological disease and I hope after this it makes him well cured of it.  I'm fed up of it.

For your consideration...



 ...personally, I'll feel a lot happier supporting the Liberals once whatshisname leaves politics to find his true calling as a snowboard instructor (or community theatre director or whitewater rafting guide or whatever his best destiny is) and the Liberals choose a smart, capable leader (like Chrystia) instead of a clueless figurehead (like you know who).

Those kind of nonsense attitudes are the reason that I'd love to see him stay on for about 40 years and keep winning.  I find myself knee jerk defending him against so much nonsense that I shouldn't even care about.

you're emphasizing you don't understand what political brand/branding is. Like I advised member Shady, partisan sniping (like his reference to BF as a brand) isn't indicative of a brand aspect. There are certainly no shortage of appropriate threads for you to ply your political leanings... this isn't one of them.

there has now been 4 pages of posts that have nothing to do with brand/branding... 4 pages since I wrote this in reply to member Shady's initial diversions:

an accurate definition of brand/branding isn't... semantics. It's clear you have no understanding of what branding is/means. There are no shortage of threads for you to ply your partisan distaste of PM Trudeau - unless you can actually present an actual and legitimate branding aspect, this just isn't one of those threads.

Trudeau pushes back against criticism from the intelligence community.  From his Rideau cottage!

It’s nice to see him also being held accountable for a failure to not only see the pandemic brewing, but also preparing for one.  It’s not always about Trump.

If you think you can separate coronavirus and it’s fallout from what will be seen as Trudeau’s “brand” you are dreaming.

Trudeau has his kneel before Zod moment.  He enjoys kneeling for something that happened in another country.  I look forward to his kneeling over China’s Muslim concentration camps.
