Just watch me ... do nothing
Wrong Trudeau leading Canada through this time of hate
The terror groups, and their supporters, are busy.
In the neighbourhoods lived in by those they hate, they have firebombed mailboxes and public buildings. They have attacked banks and the residences of politicians. They have attacked government buildings, and businesses where people go to shop.
They have issued statements about their targets, which they say include “all the symbols and colonial institutions, in particular the police … all the media of the colonists which holds us in contempt … all enterprises and commercial establishments which practice discrimination against the people … all the factories that discriminate against the people …”
It has gone on for months like that. People are scared. Some are getting hurt. So the Liberal prime minister decides to act.
“The government has pledged that it will introduce legislation which deals not only with the symptoms but with the social causes which often underlie or serve as an excuse for crime and disorder,” he says in an interview on CBC.
Then he brings down the hammer. By now, you will know the current Liberal prime minister, Justin Trudeau, has done no such thing.
In Canada in 2023 and
2024, the same sorts of things happened — day schools shot up, businesses and places of worship firebombed, attacks on the police and government and citizens, and hateful propaganda spewed everywhere, like on the weekend, when a masked group marched in front of the Parliament buildings and pledged allegiance to a listed terror entity.
All of those things have happened in Canada, in the era in which we all live. Apart from a couple tweets, Justin Trudeau has done precisely nothing about the terror Jews and others are being subjected to in the streets, online, and on campuses.
His father, Liberal Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, was different. When the separatist Front de liberation du Quebec did all those things and more, the senior Trudeau didn't just offer up tweets (he couldn't, for one thing — X didn't exist back in 1970).
He acted. As the FLQ'S attacks got more and more extreme, Trudeau Sr. invoked the War Measures
Act, which would give the police and government extra powers to deal with what had become a pro-terrorist insurrection. When a couple journalists approached Trudeau Sr. on the steps of Parliament and asked how far he would go, he said: “Just watch me.”
He went on: “Yes, well, there are a lot of bleeding hearts around who just don't like to see people with helmets and guns. All I can say is go on and bleed, but it is more important to keep law and order in the society than to be worried about weak-kneed people.”
Hundreds were rounded up and arrested. Soldiers were deployed in Ottawa and Montreal to protect the peace. Thousands of students gathered in Montreal to protest, but Trudeau Senior was undeterred.
Ultimately, the FLQ'S leaders were caught and their terrorist movement crushed. Gallup conducted a poll showing that
87% of Canadians approved of Pierre Trudeau's actions, including applying the War Measures Act.
Now, we have his son. Mere metres from where his son maintains his Ottawa office, on Saturday, masked anti-semites marched along Wellington St.
“Oct. 7 is proof that we are almost free!” one pro-hamas speaker yelled, about the slaughter of 1,200 men, women, children and babies. To cheers, he yelled: “Long live Oct. 7! Long live the resistance!”
It was a crime, all of it. Hamas and its satanic brethren are listed terror groups in Canada, just like the FLQ was. In Canada, under our Criminal Code — over which Justin Trudeau has direct constitutional authority — anyone who “contributes to, directly or indirectly, any activity of a terrorist group” is guilty of an indictable offence — 10 years in prison. It doesn't even matter if the terrorist group actually does anything here — it is enough to “facilitate” Hamas.
That's not all. Multiple sections of the Criminal Code — again, for which Justin Trudeau is responsible — make it an offence to wilfully promote hatred against an identifiable group. Here, that would be Jews, who have lived in terror since Oct. 7. Ask them, they'll tell you: They are terrified to live in Canada now. Many are leaving because their governments have failed them.
Despite all that — despite the hate seen everywhere in Canada — Justin Trudeau does nothing.
Actually, no. There's one thing he does: He reveals the critical difference between him and his father.
His father, however imperfect he was, opposed terror and fought it.
The son, meanwhile, is a coward.
