Worth reading the whole thing.

What if, instead of claiming he'd never been briefed, Trudeau back in November, responded with something like:

"Foreign interference from a broad range of actors is an ongoing problem in many countries, including ours. Of course I'm regularly briefed by our able intelligence service on an ongoing basis, and I respond accordingly. While I can't always give details about it due to national security concerns, I will always take reports and threats seriously and to respond appropriately."

It would be nice if all of that were also true, but governing is hard and this is Canada and no one is expecting miracles. At the very least, if Trudeau had responded like a serious and mature prime minister back then, he would have the political room to maneuver as more allegations were published.
Here is the thing. The Liberal party has a view people are to be managed and can’t think for themselves. Being honest with them means they are free to do what they want.

We’ve seen it countless times. COVID the biggest example. Trucker protests. Its a nanny state they want to build. Where they know the facts and we put up with it, because the Liberals will take care of us.

Kinda like China or Cuba, which Trudeaus admire but I digress.

I can’t believe people still prefer this government, its long in the tooth for them to sit out for a bit and shed the Trudeau era.
