The joke is right there, Trudeau looks like Lloyd, so put a picture of Harry next to him, NOT TWO LLOYDS.

Idiots! You should at least land the easy ones!

The Sun put together an entire article about his haircut - https://torontosun.com/entertainment...umb-and-dumber

I will say the haircut is terrible. Not exactly sure what prompted that look as it’s a straight up bad hairdo. Maybe he’s trolling us all with the Lloyd Christmas look?

[DownInFlames]

Should've gone with the Lego cut like every Conservative leader of the past 20 years.

He’s clearly out to get you

I mean it is an objectively terrible haircut and it'd be awesome if we could mock him relentlessly for it, but conservatives kind of ruined that by having a weird hyper-fixation with his hair for almost two decades now.

"Nice Hair Though" was the death-knell of the Conservative campaign in 2015. They thought Canadians would just brush him off and he's still in power 7 years later.

Maybe this strategy of haircut critique might swing the tide for them though, especially since there's 3 years left until the next general election campaign. Here's hoping angry Milhouse gets a pompadour by then.

It really is. While he was making a speech recently I was fixated on how bad it was as the sides aren't blended in properly for that type of style as you could see stray hairs touching his ears. Maybe he did it so the CP could never again use the "nice hair though" advertisements? Or maybe Justin wants to remind us all that there's more to him than just a good head of hair as this look is a little off brand for him.

he should have stuck with the "evil twin" look he had with the mustache and goatee.

I think it would be great if he brought back the pirate look.

You'd think on a PM's budget he could afford to go someplace other than Supercuts, but I guess it's tough times for everyone right now.

####, that reminds me that I have a haircut tomorrow.

Ask for “The Trudeau” and see what you get. Could go either way.

[OptimalTates]

8 years later and Conservatives are still discussing Trudeau's hair? Lol.

I guess they need to go with the big guns by insulting it this time.

The worst part is, they then lost to that hair. Couldn't even beat that. We'll see if they can beat a botched haircut now.

To be fair it was his best quality. It’s going to be difficult to compliment him now that he has a bad bowl cut.

Yeah, everyone knows that I'm definitely the biggest conservative on the board.

Canada's inflation rate rose to 8.1 per cent last month, Statistics Canada says, the fastest annual increase in the cost of living in decades.

The data agency said gasoline was the biggest single contributor to the overall rate going up, as pump prices were up by 54.6 per cent compared to the same month a year ago.

If gasoline is stripped out, the inflation rate would be 6.5 per cent.

Another major source of inflation this year has been food prices, which rose by 8.8 per cent in the past year. That's the same pace of increase seen the previous month, but economist Tu Nguyen with audit, tax and consulting agency RSM Canada says it's too soon to conclude that food prices may have peaked.

"Part of that can be attributed to the fact that Canada consumes more domestically grown food in the summer, which helps keep costs down," she said.

Fuel prices have fallen a bit, no?

Also, there is a widespread concern that grocery chains are inflating prices to gouge customers.

Yup

Also, there is a widespread concern that grocery chains are inflating prices to gouge customers.

Careful Azure, I brought this up several weeks back and was criticized for attacking the poor defenceless grocery cartel.

[Azure]

Hard to believe that any Canadian would give a pass to our grocery cartels considering their long history of price fixing, inflating prices, etc.
