Now we know why Justin gave such a glowing eulogy for Castro (xpost from reddit):

The Trudeau's never met a despotic murderous dictator that they didn't worship.

The oldman loved Soviet style dictatorships. He crushed on the Russians and thought Mao was awesome and thought that Castro was simply awesome. Its no surprise that Justin doesn't get all hot and flustered by Castro.

Yeah...I dislike Prince Justin with the best of them but slagging on his mom seems...somewhere South of 'across the line.'

On another note though, is it common for a Prime Minister and their family to have this many candid photos with Fidel Castro? It seems unusual to me.

It always seemed that as Canadian leaders they were always kind of dancing on the knife-edge between Cuba and America.

It's probably the most truthful claim in that picture I posted.

Not that I posted the image as anymore than a joke, but, we slag on Trump/Clinton sexual transgressions but Margaret Trudeau is over the line?

I get that its a joke, its just that while she is a Public Figure, shes a non-elected one, which makes her collateral damage.

Its like trying to get at someone through their family which is kind of low.

Shes not running for office or anything. If she ran for PM and people slagged her because they had something other than hearsay or fabrication that she shagged Fidel then go to town, but I dont think thats acceptable just because shes the mother of the PM of whom I object.

I wouldn't be willing to classify him as good. Hopefully with him gone the government can start carrying out more meaningful reforms. Hopefully Raul can start releasing some of the political prisoners that his brother left to rot in prisons as a sign that the old ways are dead.
But keep in mind Raul "The Butcher" Castro is a hell of a lot worse.
