Trudeau finally admits he made a mistake with bad attempt at "peoplekind" (dumb) joke...but it was good for international laughs.

 

Quote

"I made a dumb joke a few days ago that seems to have gone a little viral in the room, on the peoplekind comment," he said.

...British TV broadcaster Piers Morgan called Trudeau a "Chief PC Plonker," accusing him of killing off mankind. Australian columnist Rita Panahi called him the "Kim Kardashian of political leaders; an all-style, no-substance himbo with all the depth of a puddle."

Jokes included pictures posted of comic superhero Batman changing his name to "Batperson" and suggestions that Manitoba become "Peopletoba."

During a testy question period exchange Tuesday, the Conservatives' deputy leader, Lisa Raitt, urged the prime minister to "person up."

It is very sad and disappointing that supposedly feminist Trudeau stays silent on the bravery of Iranian women who as we speak risking their lives asking for basic human rights (freedom not to wear idiotic compulsory hijab) and correct terminology mankind to peoplekind while ignoring real actions.

Well said Ottawa Citizen above.

and below:

It is also a fact that even if it were something as effortless as a strong and stern public statement warning the ayatollahs that we are all watching them, or some small gesture of affection and encouragement the House of Commons might make towards the Girls of Revolution Street, we are instead reduced to this.

The world needed a break from laughing at Trump.

I'm put in mind of the soccer player who dives in the box in the hope of getting a penalty kick.  When he is genuinely tripped the Ref looks the other way.

Well you are talking about a guy who peddles armoured crowd control cars and military helicopters to some of the worst regimes and bloodthirsty thugs on the planet.

A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.

Actually it was Harper who sold that shit to those people.

Trudeau hasn't done anything to undo Harper's shit and it's Trudeau's government that's facilitating the sale of the military helicopters to the Philippines.

His inaction regarding Saudi Arabia merely underscores his action regarding the Philippines.

I guess it's a fair argument to try and apportion blame. Harper signed the deal, Trudeau claimed he needed to honor it else we lose trust. Maybe we should just have left off and had Trump tack that on to his deal with the Saudis. Apparently it did provide a good number of jobs here.

So the take away is that Canada supports dictators because it provides good jobs.

Sweet.

It's not a lot different than Obama rallying around trangender bathrooms and seeing bakeries get harassed while NoKo and Iran build their weaponry.

The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so. - Ronald Reagan


I have said that the Western world is just as violent as the Islamic world - Dialamah


Europe seems to excel at fooling people to immigrate there from the ME only to chew them up and spit them back. - Eyeball


Unfortunately our policies have contributed to retarding and limiting their (Muslim's) society's natural progression towards the same enlightened state we take for granted. - Eyeball

Don't forget Obama ramped up extra-judicial killings of Muslims, kept Guantanamo open and increased the states ability to spy on everyone.  Why he gets such a bad rap from right-wingers is actually surprising.  Didn't kill, imprison, torture or spy enough I suppose.

Screw anyone who gets paid to build them for dictators. They should be ashamed of themselves.

We should be donating them to  people like the Rohingya and Kurds.

Or we should work towards finding better alternatives to the military industrial complex to keep people employed.

Both Bell Helicopter Textron Canada and General Dynamics Land Systems Canada are wholly owned subsidiaries of parent American corporations.

Canadian employees and suppliers will keep trying to get paid no matter who they build war machines for.

And we'll keep paying the cost.

Well you boys are working pretty hard to keep Saudi Arabia very well armed. Now I thought your hero had something against Muslim's at one point didn't he? Threatened to kick 'em all out and ban them from coming to the US.

The mob of progressive leftists always prefers a style over substance argument. We should refuse to sell anything to such regimes because we disapprove of them!  Which accomplishes exactly what? They shrug and buy their helicopters or tanks or aircraft from the Russians or Chinese, both of whom will be delighted to make the money and gain influence. Ah, but we'll be left with our nobility! Having fully expressed our disdain for them! 

Of course, we'll continue to let China sell tens or hundreds of billions worth of stuff here because, well, you know, it's cheap.

"A liberal is someone who claims to be open to all points of view — and then is surprised and offended to find there are other points of view.” William F Buckley
