Is Trudeau saying most Canadians are racists?

[turningrite]

Well, our little potato(head) is apparently at it again, essentially appearing to call all Canadians who are critical of his refugee policies racists. As polling suggests a majority disagree with his government's approach on refugees, isn't he really saying that most of us are racists? And in other news today, his government is increasing the number of foreign grandparents it will permit to immigrate to this country, who no doubt will add an additional burden to an already pathetically threadbare health care system. Is Trudeau for real here? Has he lost it and is he trying to force his party to replace him before the next election? The guy has got to be replaced.

The first refuge of a scoundrel is to label a perfectly legitimate question "racist"  What is disgusting is Trudeau saying that the questioning  of the cost Of Illegal Border Crossers Is "Hate Speech".

As per N. Specter...  

QCois de souche came much later -- first question that Trudeau avoided answering and chose to inflame -- was perfectly legitimate and is the same question being asked by the Governments of Ontario, QC and Manitoba

Trudeau and his ilk live in a closed bubble where their enthusiastic progressive beliefs gets echoed back and forth to each other. He has no idea what ordinary people think because he never hears it. He presumes that if you don't share his earnest open armed feeling towards migrants and immigrants you must be an evil person. And imagine thinking about cost! What kind of a person puts any thought into what anything costs anyway!?

So Blair does not call it a crisis. This guy is nuts in the head. With almost 6000 criminal illegals that have crossed into Canada illegally in the past two years as far as we know is a bloody crisis and is not being properly managed at all. It is a disgrace that a country like Canada cannot defend it's border from criminal illegals entering Canada illegally as we see happening today. The liberals have shown us that they have no problem with thousands of illegals crossing our Canadian borders illegally. They are responsible for this crisis and they should all be held accountable for it. I will bet you that not one of those liberals will ever take one refugee family into their homes and cover their costs while they stay here in Canada and waiting for their immigration hearing which could take up to years. Trudeau the twit is pretty rich and isn't he the one that says that we all should help out these illegals?  So why does he not practice what he likes to preach and take a few families into his home. That should shut up some of us immigration whiners and criers, eh? But you can dam well bet that he will not. Trudeau is an ass and I just hope that misfit gets kicked out in the next election for what this fool as done to the Canadian taxpayer's of this country. Personally, if I could, I would like to have him arrested and charged for the wasting of hundreds of millions of taxpayer's tax dollars on his legal and illegal program and agenda of trying to flood and allowing Canada to be allowed into Canada cost of them being illegal. It's deplorable and disgusting to see so much of our tax dollars being blown down the drain bu this prime mistake thief of yours. 

I wonder if MH has anything to offer up here?

You appear at times to be pretty good at living in a closed bubble yourself. Just saying.

Is Trudeau laying the ground word to criminalize the opposition   -- Very un-prime ministerial of Trudeau to inflame the situation rather than answer the perfectly legitimate question being asked by the Governments of QC, Ontario and Manitoba

Yup, Trudeau's rant today was total nonsense. The issue it raises is whether he has any comprehension of the real world.

She was branded a racist by the PM of Canada? Poor lady. My guess is it's going to be awful hard for her to find a job now.

Maybe his real thought process is such that if you don't agree with his lollipops and unicorns platform and won't support his party you must be evil. Real people understand the real costs of Canada's unrealistic immigration and refugee programs, which are suppressing incomes, increasing housing prices and rents and limiting access to necessary health care. Why worry about letting in more grannies and grandpas who've never paid taxes here or irregular/illegal migrants who get better government-funded health care benefits than do Canadian seniors. Trudeau and his cronies would no doubt get front of the line service if ill and otherwise would likely sneak out of the country for care. They wouldn't be denied access to necessary health care, as I have experienced. I suspect few of them wouldn't spend endless nights sleeping on an emergency room gurney as an admitted patient and be forced to share an often filthy bathroom with dozens of other patients and visitors, as I have done. No, we're just labelled as racists for being upset at having to deal with such indignities after having paid taxes for decades.

I'm just playing with his Chinese nickname, little potato, but I like your clever alternative interpretation as well. I  have long found it difficult to take him seriously although he's now veering into territory that renders him plainly ridiculous.

As long as you don't ask him questions he cannot answer, or that which makes him uncomfortable.   Anyone who asks such questions.....he labels as, racists.  That's how he tries to shut you up.  

Then, his supporters who surround him will drown out your question with jeers, cheers and applause.

 

If you still persist in asking.......

 

......you get apprehended by cops.

 

 

 

That's our Canada now,  under Justin Trudeau.

Here's a video of what happened to a Quebec elderly who's got the guts to ask Trudeau a question about illegal immigrants.

 

 

[betsy]

It shouldn't matter whether you belong to the far right or far left - whether you are a socialist or a communist.  In the Canada I used to know.......you have the right to ask questions!

 

Trudeau may not like her question - but there's nothing wrong with her question.  It's a question that must be surely at the back of every sensible Canadian's head.

 

 

How many people died in hospitals in Quebec during the heatwave a couple of months ago?  Heck, hospitals can't even afford air conditioning!

We don't know if she belonged to any group, but even if she did, her question of financing was perfectly legitimate and definitely not racist but this is how Trudeau rolls.   Anyone who questions his policies will be 'intolerant, racist, bigoted and of course hate speech' etc. etc.   

We also need to know if the guy who strong armed her was actually RCMP or just hired security goons. 

This from Andrew Scheer who is right on this.

This is how you can tell when Liberals are losing. Concerned about illegal border crossers? You’re a racist. Worried about the cost? You’re un-Canadian. Don’t like the carbon tax? You’re a denier. Canadians are sick and tired of this. 3/5

[scribblet]

Now that Scheer has brought this out into the open it's for a full out discussion by MPs et al as to why it's racist or intolerant to question fiscal responsibility

This is a calculated Liberal strategy to avoid accountability and shut down legitimate criticism of their appalling record. 4/5

There was a fascinating column by Anthony Furey on Trudeau's behavior in yesterday's Toronto Sun: 'Trudeau's re-election strategy? Call everyone racist'. As Furey notes, "This constant referencing of “the politics of fear” is itself a form of fear-mongering, where Trudeau and his top advisers want you to believe that there are mean and nasty people lurking behind every corner that you must fear and that only he can protect you from."

In fact, it's plain old-fashioned top-down paternalism on Trudeau's part. What gives this trust-fund fop the right to condescendingly lecture the rest of us who for the most part have worked and paid taxes since completing school while he flitted from one transitory experience to the next until he landed in daddy's old job? He got the PM role with the thinnest resume in modern Canadian history. He scarcely showed up for the audition, as his poor attendance record as young MP attests. Too bored, maybe?

According to polling reported on in today's National Post (thanks to Argus for posting the link in another topic), about half of all Canadians definitionally meet Trudeau's criteria to be called racists. Trudeau and his cronies probably aren't racists. Rather, I believe they're racialists, who exploit racial and cultural categorization and division for political purposes, as Bernier has accused them of doing. But it seems they're losing the battle where public opinion is concerned.

There it is. Trudeau and the Liberals have launched a culture war as a means to denigrating political opponents as its main strategy for reelection. This has probably in the works almost as soon as they were elected.
