JUSTIN IS STILL AROUND
Recommended Videos
Trudeau hasn’t resigned yet. He still is leader of the Liberals and still has power. It’s like when Jagmeet Singh tore up his agreement with Trudeau, saying he will take him down — but yet kept voting in favour of Trudeau. A resignation is when you leave the office or your job and do not stay there until you find someone else. Here’s the definition of resignation in Wikipedia: “Resignation is the formal act of leaving or quitting one’s office or position. A resignation can occur when a person holding a position gained by election or appointment steps down, but leaving a position upon the expiration of a term, or choosing not to seek an additional term, is not considered resignation.” So, don’t say he’s resigned.

CHERRY GOES BUT NOT TRUDEAU?
After all the good he had done across the decades, how could Canadians boot Don Cherry from the airwaves overnight, yet retain (for more than nine years) a prime minister who repeatedly lied about deeply offensive behaviour, was involved in multiple political scandals, and who trampled their rights? This is beyond the understanding of an American observer.

FARCICAL RACE
Would someone, not a Liberal presently in government or a supporter, please explain to me how someone who has not been duly elected in a proper election and does not have a seat in Parliament can run for prime minister. What a farce — Mark Carney should not be allowed to run and Canadians should be outraged.

IN FOR 51
Can Trump and Trudeau please speed things up a bit on this 51st state thing? I’m going to Florida in March and I don’t want to pay the exchange.
