In an article from Maclean’s Magazine: “Trudeau and his team have worked hard at sucking up to Trump,” yet Trudeau delivered “a borderline rebuke” of Trump. While doing it, he clumsily tried to extricate himself from being the divisive, Islamic-supremacist pushing, morally defunct leader that he is. Trudeau told New York University students to “embrace diversity” and “reject nationalism.” Those were his code words for “support open borders and the Islamization of the West.” He went on:
Let me be very clear: this is not an endorsement of moral relativism, or a declaration that all points of view are valid. Female genital mutilation is wrong, no matter how many generations have practiced it.
Indeed, FGM is wrong. So are honor killings, wife-beating, stonings, murdering gays, rape of infidels, beheadings, killing infidels, persecuting Christians, restricting the freedom of speech, etc. This is why the former Conservative government of Canada introduced the Zero Tolerance on Barbaric Cultural Practices Act, an Act that was rejected by the Trudeau Liberals.
Trudeau also stated:
“Let yourself be vulnerable to another point of view” accompanied by rote denunciations of accompanying sins. One must not “cocoon ourselves in an ideological, social or intellectual bubble,” he implored, or “engage only with people with whom we already agree,” but instead “fight our tribal mind-set” and the dreaded “identity politics.”
Had Trudeau been advising Islamic supremacists, his words would be sensible, but he is referring to conservatives who pride themselves on the standing for principles including free speech, diversity of thought, and the equality of rights of all people before the law. How can anyone trust Trudeau on tough issues such as the global jihad when he’s busy on tours humiliating himself and his nation? Canada’s Prime Minister was even the subject of a hit piece in, of all places, the Washington Post, entitled “Justin Trudeau’s appallingly dishonest speech to NYU.”
The two articles below — from Maclean’s and the WaPo — expose a man who is unfit to be a leader. While they expose his silliness, the larger issue is his promotion of Islamic supremacists. In the words of Alberta United Conservative leader Jason Kenney (former Citizenship and Immigration leader under Stephen Harper): “Trudeau is an empty trust-fund millionaire who has the political depth of a finger bowl.”
“Justin Trudeau delivers a borderline rebuke of Donald Trump”, by Stephen Maher, Maclean’s Magazine, May 16, 2018:
Justin Trudeau came as close as he should ever come on Wednesday to denouncing Donald Trump.
Standing at second base of Yankee Stadium—where the U.S. president has box seats—Trudeau spent 20 minutes telling the 2018 graduating class of New York University to embrace diversity, to reject nationalism.
Young New Yorkers like Trudeau, seeing him as the anti-Trump—the handsome young feminist from Canada—and the students cheered whenever his smiling face appeared on the jumbotron during the commencement address.
If they have heard about his misadventures in India, they showed no sign of it.
Trudeau didn’t mention Trump, but none of the thousands of students and parents sitting in the drizzle listening to Trudeau could have missed the point.
He didn’t just mention in passing, as he does in every Canadian speech, that diversity is strength. It seemed to be the whole point of coming to Trump’s home ballpark to address the students of one of the most Liberal colleges in the United States.
He is walking a fine line with this kind of thing. No political issue is more important to the government of Canada than managing the trade relationship with the United States.
Trudeau and his team have worked hard at sucking up to Trump and his team in the hopes of stopping him from destroying NAFTA. You can tell that the Trudeau team has done a good job at it—involving business people, diplomats and former prime minister Brian Mulroney—because the Conservatives don’t accuse them of flubbing it. It’s the one issue that is so important to Canadians that it’s beyond partisan politics……
“Let me be very clear: this is not an endorsement of moral relativism, or a declaration that all points of view are valid. Female genital mutilation is wrong, no matter how many generations have practiced it. Anthropogenic climate change is real, no matter how much some folks want to deny it.”
Here in the Bronx, where Trump won just nine per cent of the vote in the 2016 presidential election, the students gave their loudest cheers of the day for that line.
Trudeau told the students that appealing to tribalism is the easiest way for leaders to rally support, but building common ground between tribes is a higher calling……
“Justin Trudeau’s appallingly dishonest speech to NYU”, by J.J. McCullough, Washington Post, May 17, 2018:
As is common among sheltered men of extreme privilege, when Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau attempts to share relatable thoughts on modern life, his words tend to expose a speaker who has no actual familiarity with social trends but has clearly been briefed to their existence. The commencement speech he delivered Wednesday at New York University is a classic study of an obliviously cloistered poseur trying desperately to feign compliance with current fashions. A belabored reference to Pokémon Go was the least of it.
Trudeau — or whatever team of speechwriters and handlers who do the heavy thinking on his behalf — seems broadly aware that North America is mired in a state of intense sociopolitical polarization, and that amid all this shouting and anger, it is the role of great minds to reassert the case for virtues of free speech and intellectual diversity.
Such was the tone Trudeau’s NYU speech correspondingly struck, with tender protestations to
“let yourself be vulnerable to another point of view” accompanied by rote denunciations of accompanying sins. One must not “cocoon ourselves in an ideological, social or intellectual bubble,” he implored, or “engage only with people with whom we already agree,” but instead “fight our tribal mind-set” and the dreaded “identity politics.”
To be sure, these are good sentiments. Unfortunately, there is no evidence whatsoever that Trudeau takes them seriously in the context where his opinions most matter: his performance as Canada’s ruler……

As one English journalist accurately described him: ” All style, no substance and with the depth of a puddle”. The journalist could have added “dangerous”.
pokesalad says
He’s way too busy suckin up to bein liked. He’s nondescript and flatulent whim.
Danger enters when U have a dude that says his piece and keeps his promise.
Clark says
In Australia a few years back, a former, embittered Prime Minister described the then current Prime Minister as, “All tip and no iceberg.”
Ray Jarman says
I met former PM John Majors at a dinner in Canberra in 2001 and he talked how he and Kim Beasley, were diametrically opposed to each other’s political views, they were still able to be civil and I was told by other that they were very close friends. It seems that Beasley was the last Labour (liberal/left or what ever they wish to be called) leader with an ounce of integrity.

TRUE DOPE strikes again…

Why would a college want Junior to make a commencement speech?
Ohooooo I see NYU..I see that now..i wonder Was Obummer in the audience
Linda says
Strangely, Trudeau goes to the U.S. all the time, but he doesn’t go to visit the current President. He goes to visit people associated with Obama’s Democrats. It makes me wonder what he’s up to.
Char says
I certainly hope that the graduates have brains enough not to listen to this ass hat!
Peter Dale says
The tragedy is that he may well actually believe the hogwash he spouts.

You can see that he thinks he’s wonderful, even if no one else does.

Older Canadian says
Well one thing trudeau never fails to disappoint.
Mr Trump, you have a big problem in the great white north.
Mr Kenney in his complete comment about trudeau really nailed him. Trudeau’s response, (obviously stated from his safe space) to Kenney was,…well best I don’t state my opinion. Look it up. It will be one for the history books, priceless.
Flavius Claudius Iulianus says
Be careful about complimenting Kenney too much. I celebrated when Kenney left fed politics. He’s big advocate of promoting the immigrant vote and that is a big part of our problem in Canada.
Older Canadian says
Thanks for the info, really admit do not know much about him. Will do some research about him as it looks like he will be the next premier of alberta.
UNCLE VLADDI says
Yes he is. Both he and Harper gave away prime Canadian land – the old War Museum, no less! to the Ismaeli ASSASSIN chief the Aga Khan, tax-free for the next 100 years, and further granted millions of our tax dollars to this cult-leading tribal muslim Billionaire for a huge “TOOLERANCE MOSQUE” outside Toronto, in exchange for his subject’s email addresses. Obviously, they thought the Assassin’s vote was more important to them than the rights and money of Canadian Citizens – oh, wait: Harper also granted the Khan an honourary Canadian Citizenship at the same time.
Charlie Dumaurier says
Trudeau is fair-minded and tries to be as objective as possible. This is incomprehensible to the Trump followers. They not only do not understand it, they see it as a threat. Trump is going to crash and burn. His followers need a strong man to tell them what to do and how to think. Trump may be succeeded by someone much worse. These are truly the end times.
Linda says
The only people who think Trudeau is fair-minded, are the far left and the Muslims.
PMP says
Trudeau is an avowed muslim. Grow up for crying out loud. Trudeau is a slimy, gutless, spineless, sniveling, globalist ass kissing coward. He supports, condones, and defends the hypocrisy that is islam.
I would love to see how supportive and how loving he would be of this cancer if his daughters ended up getting married at 9 years of age and cruelly sexually assaulted repeatedly. Him and his ilk are the lowest life forms on earth.

Older Canadian says
Trudeau’s mind is controlled by, (in no particular order).. Soro, Butt, Merkel, Macron, May, Obama, ……and the idology of his father who praised Stalin, Castro, and Mao’s dictatorships, even wrote about how great they were, read the book, its unbelievable. Then perhaps you should do some history reading.
Dave says
They certainly are the end times here in Canada with Trudeau at the helm. Wake up older Canadian and see what the extremely conceited fool is doing to our country.
HaHaThatsAGoodOne says
Anyone who thinks that wishy-washy Baby Trudeau is a “strong man” needs their head examined!
Carolyne says
Being objective about moral values or any moral question is idiotic. Being objective means you are too ignorant to know right from wrong. I assume that you see yourself in this M. dumaurier.
gravenimage says
Charlie Dumaurier sees enabling Jihad as “objective” and “fair-minded”, I see…
Linda says
Just FYI, in a post on another story, he said he had a prayer mat and was going to convert to Islam to get back at white people. I think that idea might come back to bite him, but, it’s his life.
DukeMagoo says
I weep for Canada under the management of this supercilious clown who is in, way over his hair.
Like Samson, this idiot used his mop of hair as a feature and the idiot voters in Canada went for it …. women shouldn’t vote in the next Canadian elections. We need a more serious leader. Women don’t seem to get that. They vote for Mr. Dreamy.
Lynne says
Don’t blame all women. I didn’t vote for him and won’t in2019.
gravenimage says
Women shouldn’t vote in elections?
Why don’t you just convert to Islam right now?
The claim–I’ve seen it before–that only women–and all women–voted for Trudeau is just absurd.
Charlie Dumaurier says
They NYU crowd cheered Trudeau. They are educated and cultured. On the other hand, Trump’s supporters are hillbillies and robber barons. The hillbillies will buy anything even if it doesn’t make sense. They want to go back in time to when one did not have to have an education to get a job. They don’t realize that you can never return and they have been sold a dream. The robber barons are busy scooping up bigger profits as the ordinary people are made poorer every day. What a sad sight. America is being gaslighted by the world’s greatest con man. Trump must be a demon. He has to have satan on his side to get away with it for so long.
Linda says
The NYU crowd cheered Trudeau because he never grew up and has little real life experience. He appeals to young adults just graduating, even though he himself is in his forties. I guess they’re as “cultured” as young adults can be, but they have no life experience.
Flavius Claudius Iulianus says
“They NYU crowd cheered Trudeau. They are educated and cultured. On the other hand, Trump’s supporters are hillbillies and robber barons.”
And you seem to be a troll …
There is a non sequitur in your point of view. Your comments combine talk of Christian “end of times” and anti-Trump, Leftist rhetoric. I’m suspicious …
Carolyne says
Leftist ignorance at work. This character who takes the name of a talented author is most likely living in mommy’s basement waiting for someone to toss down his next meal.
Carolyne says
Obviously you have never been to New York if you think New Yorkers are “Educated and cultured.”

I have a double bacalaureat from Berkeley, and I voted for Trump.

It’s strange but he always seems to have a vacant look in his eyes. Well, it is a wonder how this human-sized lemming is still leading the way off the cliff.

Like Father, Like Son. Both useless.
Flavius Claudius Iulianus says
Keep it up Trudeau. Keep talking down to your electorate, Mr Preachy PM. Keep up the condescension and unending virtue signalling so that by the time the election comes around even your supporters will be fed up with you.
2019
Flavius Claudius Iulianus says
I have to say it: it can’t be much of a degree when they need a ball stadium to hold all the graduates. Can’t it?

Political oblivion awaits for this man.
Just like Bob Rae..

Good! The sooner, the better. Ah, for the day when Justin is merely a political footnote in history!
Ray Jarman says
“Let yourself be vulnerable to another point of view” accompanied by rote denunciations of accompanying sins. It’s not being vulnerable to another point of view that I protest, it is the point of the sword or machete that I protest, especially, if it is my neck to which it points. I don’t live in a well armed mansion in Ottawa or even Gracie Mansion.

LOL Let me “talk” the talking points of hyper-liberalism so I may appear as if I know what I am saying…

Trudeau blasts “nationalism”–
Hmmm. While I truly and sincerely think that it’s perfectly fine that my continent is divided at Line Forty-Nine and the Great Lakes by two nations that get along OK, part of me would really like to say this to Justin T over this blasting of “nationalism”:
OK, Justin, if nationalism is so bad, just admit that your resistance in 1812 was wrong-headed, and apply for admission to our Union…
