CBC reported Saturday morning that Trudeau and family were relocated from their home at Rideau Cottage to an undisclosed location for their safety. The Prime Minister is working remotely somewhere in the Capital Region.

Trudeau, hasn’t directly addressed the ongoing demonstrations, which are spread throughout Ottawa and across the country.

However, after he was relocated, Trudeau remained active on Twitter, condemning Islamaphobia and racism and commemorating victims of the tragic mosque killings.

In previous comments, Trudeau has called the truckers protest a “a small fringe minority” holding “unacceptable” views.

On Friday, he described his worry (Was that worry or HOPE?) that the protests might turn violent.

“Of course I’m concerned,” he said. “A number of people are there without wanting to incite violence but (Please-Please-Please?) there are going to be, as we’ve heard, a small group of people in there who are posing a threat to themselves, to each other, to Canadians.”

Another unaware person.
Clearly unaware of the costs pf equipment and infrastructure needed for an ICU.
Spending money on covid crisis and front line workers leaves little to expand hospitals..... at any time and even less so during a pandemic.
Flatten the curve??? And what did they not do to try and flatten the curve? What do you suggest they should have done??
So why did they shut beds down after the first wave?

Justin Trudeau and his family flee the Canadian capital for a secret location amid security concerns as 50,000 anti-vaccine mandate 'Freedom Convoy' truckers march days after being dismissed as a 'small fringe minority'​

  • Justin Trudeau and his family have left their Ottawa home amid security concerns as demonstrators marched up and down the streets in front the Prime Minister's office to rally against the vaccine mandate
  • Protestors could be seen carrying copies of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, while others carried signs reading 'God keep our land glorious and free,' 'Make Canada great again,' and 'we are here for our freedom'
  • The convoy set out from British Columbia on Sunday and was cheered by hundreds of Canadians as it made its more than 2,000-mile journey to protest vaccine mandates
  • Since mid January, Canada and the United States have imposed a COVID-19 vaccine mandate for foreign truck drivers crossing the border between the two countries
  • Canadian drivers are unable to enter US unless they are vaccinated, US drivers are unable to enter Canada
  • Furthermore, unvaccinated Canadian drivers returning home must get tested and quarantine
  • Unvaccinated American truckers are not forced to test and quarantine when returning to the U.S.

So….so Monday Jan 31st is supposed to be Justin Trudeau’s “Day 5” of self-imposed isolation from a Covid close contact (that he emphatically declared wasn’t from a liberal party meeting!!!), so he can Justin-ify not being in Parliament on Monday, but what about Tuesday February 1st?
