Liberal Leader happy to take on conspiracy theorists and ‘people who want to ignore science around vaccines, around climate change’

At some point, it seems like part of Mr. Trudeau started to like it. Not really like it – it wasn’t pretty – but like the fact that he had an ugly opponent out there, and he was carrying on. He had an opportunity speak against it. It gave him a platform to portray himself as a leader who has something to fight against. A foil.

The guy accusing Mr. Trudeau of leading a human trafficking ring was louder, and not alone in believing that conspiracy theory. At one point, the crowd broke into chants of “pedophile.” Several shouted that Mr. Trudeau is Fidel Castro’s son. The protests gave an edge to his usually blah-blah-blah talking points. The Liberal Leader has had a hard time articulating what the election is about, but the protesters gave him something new to point to while he reframed the same answers.

“And people who want to ignore science around vaccines, around climate change – they don’t get to choose how Canada moves forward. All Canadians get to step up and be heard in this election. And the choice couldn’t be clearer.”

Have to wonder how many of these protesters benefited from Trudeau’s Covid programs.

The antivaxxers & religious zealouts have infiltrated erinotoole's CPC_HQ! Identify them as DomesticTerrorists! Ban them from 🇨🇦's health care system for life!

Agents provocateurs? Probably Liberals.

It's always nice to be WHITE in North America

Canadian insurrectionists are a political prop for Trudeau? Trudeau is a firewall between Canada and the dystopian Republican nightmare we see in the US red states and Alberta. The PM's residence was breached by one of these fools, a while ago. cdnmedia is right leaning bias

I bet everyone there just loved the covid money

These people are not real Canadians! Trumpers

Trudeau is campaigning against Canadians. The media is helping. cdnpoli Elxn44

Protest is legal under the Charter still…even if you use foul language…if there were death threats, where are the ARRESTS Smells like a dirty politics Liberal setup pulled out in DESPERATION when Trudeau fell BEHIND in the polls…!!!!

Heavens forbid! Vitriol in politics! My stars! How soon can we pass laws protecting the feelings of the Prime Minister? Bring back Lese Majeste!

What could they possibly be upset with

You can pretty well do anything you'd like to Canadians and they'll fall over each other to make sure they comply. It seems like a very small percentage of people are mad as hell and don't want to take it anymore though.

Take it in stride j t if this is what it means to keep my family friends safe I'm voting liberal rather than support the trash screaming at my pm

Vitriolic? Relax.

I wonder which Party these hooligans will vote for? More importantly, I wonder which Party organized their gathering?

These paid and organized protests by the rump end of Canada's Conservatives require outrage not pablum from the Globe and Mail!

Shame on you all. This is not acceptable in our beautiful country Canada!

Wow. What a headline….That’s your takeaway? Campaign prop? Just…amazing….

I don’t think so.

Just your average PPC voter.

If they were burning and looting buildings, demanding justice for the death of a fat, black, drug dealer who held a gun against a pregnant women and committed armed assault, they would be labelled heroes. Funny how the media decides what protests are acceptable and what are not.

Seriously? You've got to be kidding.

3-2-1......Harper's fault. Watch him paint these protesters as CPC supporters.

Nice try

wait until you see what happens september 20th lmao

Terrible tweet. You think that this is “welcome”. I expect better from the . Garbage.

As B.C burns, Canada suffers drought, Afghanistan in turmoil & an opioid crisis & pandemic sweeping our nation, Canadians have much to be upset about with Trudeau selfishly calling an unnecessary early election, but that is no excuse for violence! If you take issue, vote him out.
