That John Oliver clip really sums up everyone's thoughts on this internationally quite well. Basically "Yeah, he probably shouldn't have done what he did, but what in the serious **** were the NDP doing there?".
In Canada it's being made out as both sides were bad, everywhere else it's being called for what it is - an absolute joke on the part of the opposition to create the ruckus with childish BS and then take a bunch of Lebron James style dives when the PM entered, THEN further went on to make the most hyperbolic assertion and comments they could possibly make, thinking they hit a home run to attack the PM with.
I went back and forth at first, but after a week you can see this was a complete gongshow beginning and ending with the NDP, with a little slip up by the PM in between - However, it's pretty clear they were baiting and prepared for the slip up. Brutal.
