Trudeau, impatient to get the vote started, is seen on video striding over to Opposition whip Gordon Brown. He grabs Brown's arm to direct him to his seat. New Democrat Party (NDP) Parliament member Ruth Ellen Brosseau gets elbowed by Trudeau in the process.
Trudeau has had his missteps and scandals as well.
If Trump had elbowed a woman while in office, you would have had him burned at the stake.

As the world reacted to the death of Fidel Castro, Trudeau said in a statement that the Cuban leader had been a "larger than life leader who served his people." He left out any mention of Castro's record on human rights and his history of oppression._____________
Really, Trudeau said that.

Even before that ruckus could die down, Trudeau found himself in the middle of yet another scandal. His office confirmed that the Prime Minister spent his winter holiday on the private island of the Aga Khan -- and used the billionaire religious leader's private helicopter to get there. An ethics investigation is underway.
OOPS?
First, the elbow thing was an accident, and was dealt with LONG ago.
Second, the Trudeaus and Castros were long time family friends. He wasn't just grieving a leader, he was grieving a friend. Plenty of people grieved this loss and didn't think it was a time to cheer for his death.
Third, the only part that is getting investigated is him using a private helicopter to arrive at the island. If he hadve spent tax payer money on getting there, there would have been no issue. Literally, the only issue is him saving the country money.
Please don't use another leader to further your agenda unless you actually know WTF you're talking about. I didn't even vote for this guy and it pisses me off to see people trying to diss him when they obviously only skimmed the headlines.
She's apparently quite serious. Yes, I know how ridiculous that seems.
She's made a lot of disparaging remarks about this thread, yet it seems like catnip to her, as she just can't bring herself to stay away! I choose to take being the object of her obsession as flattery.
