Trudeau's discarding of democracy only outstripped by Singh's
Singh shamefully negotiated away our democracy to have Trudeau make an announcement about additional sick days for employees, something that is under provincial jurisdiction.

There are few things that make citizens more angry than hypocrisy from preachy politicians.

On June 4, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau ventured from Rideau Cottage and said: “I want to be very clear, we’re not out of the woods. The pandemic is still threatening the health and safety of Canadians.” He then went on to remind Canadians to social distance and be vigilant.

One day later, Trudeau did something he has been loathe to do — he attended Parliament Hill — not to preside over Parliament but to attend an anti-racism rally with thousands of people to protest the killing in Minneapolis, Minn., of George Floyd, who died when a police officer knelt on his neck for almost nine minutes.

Video of Trudeau taking a knee shows him wearing a cloth mask — with his ever-present cameras in tow — being pressed on all sides by an enormous crowd.

On June 8, during one of his increasingly irrelevant daily news conferences outside of his cottage, Trudeau said this about breaking his own decrees to Canadians: “I recognize that it is a difficult situation where we are trying to balance very important competing interests.”

What about all those small business owners who have seen their life’s work evaporate because they weren’t allowed to do any balancing of competing interests? What about those people who were not allowed to be with a dying loved one?
