Oh hell I don't care who the fvck you people mock. I mock Trump myself because he's an azzhole. However I do not know much about Trudeau nor do I know anyone who does so why mock him?

Many Canadians like to think we here in Canadu are superior to Americans and hence take great pleasure in
looking down nose at you Americans . You will find that attitude very persuasive in great many left leaning
Canadians .I like pocking them in the nose ,and you 1 of 150,000,000 odd Americans don't know anybody that will mock Canadu's PM .
I one of Canadu's 32,000,000 know at least one American on this very forum that will mock PM Trudeau .
I guess that puts me one up on you .LOL
Actually if you read my previous post you'll find I said I do not care if Canadians mock Trump. What you all think of Americans doesn't mean a rats azz to me anymore. It use to but not anymore.
They don't know who Trudeau is or where you are on a map. If they stumbled upon the fact that we had an election or even that we have e!ections, it would a freak, random occurance.
That's a relief!
Now don't get me wrong, you could be Chinese, Brazilian or French and I would not give a damn what you think about things regardless of your nationality. I would just categorize you as hatefulese.
You got that right, Short of accusing them of rape or child molestation w/o proof I have absolutely no qualms about voicing opinions about politicians, regardless of race, gender, colour or creed!
Well I think we all care about what our friends and family think of us . If we say we don't chances are pretty good that we are not being honest. But on the internet where you'll never really know anyone, it's best to not give a damn because it doesn't matter.
I don't really mock politicians as much as I criticize and judge them simply because I don't trust any of them. Not saying that is right, but just the way I feel. I'd like to see someone who can relate to the working people of which I was most of my life but you know, if someone did lean in that direction, I'd still probably think they were putting on a performance pandering for votes.
Again with the rocket science. Trump's well crafted campaign.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump ended a rally in South Carolina Friday by recalling, approvingly, the probably-apocryphal tale of General Pershing's execution of Muslims.
… an apparent myth about how General John Pershing summarily executed dozens of Muslim prisoners in the Philippines with tainted ammunition during a guerilla war against the occupying United States.
“He took fifty bullets, and he dipped them in pig’s blood,” Trump said. “And he had his men load his rifles and he lined up the fifty people, and they shot 49 of those people. And the fiftieth person he said ‘You go back to your people and you tell them what happened.’ And for 25 years there wasn’t a problem, okay?”
The story appears to be a hoax spread via e-mail forwards, according to rumor tracker Snopes.com, with no evidence it occurred.
The moral of the tale, according to Trump: “We better start getting tough and we better start getting vigilant, and we better start using our heads or we’re not gonna have a country, folks.”

Can't wait for the next installment from his PR machine.
He will have the votes of fools for sure.
Where did this come from? I watched the whole process and Trump's victory speech. I didn't hear anything remotely about Muslims or General Pershing. I think it's BS!
Trump said if he gets elected he will approve the Keystone Pipeline. Canadians should be pulling for him. It would solve a big problem for us.
But then, if Trump won and he approved the Keystone Pipeline, Trudeau would likely wring his hands and say in his whispery, sickly voice, "Well, ah, we will ah, have to ah, look into ah that before we ah go ahead ah with it ah. We ah would want ah to get it ah right. It ah will have to ah be studied before we ah can ah make a ah decision".
Pac-man emoticon and a new line of icons with a hairdo and so tid-bit of philosophy. Have the treats be his opponents, Bush chomp, . . . .

CNN reporting from Cape Breton as Trump-inspired spotlight continues
THE CANADIAN PRESS

SYDNEY, N.S. -- Two weeks after a saucy Canadian website poked fun at Donald Trump by inviting disaffected American voters to move to Cape Breton, the island's moment in the American spotlight continues unabated.
On the same day U.S. voters were taking part in the Super Tuesday presidential primaries, cable news giant CNN dispatched a reporter and crew to Nova Scotia to find out what Cape Breton has to offer.
"They are just so intrigued by the interest of Americans in looking at Cape Breton," says Mary Tulle, CEO of the tourism agency Destination Cape Breton. "They wanted to get a sense of what is this little place, Cape Breton Island, is all about."
The network is following up on a series of reports that confirmed the website "Cape Breton if Donald Trump Wins," has gone viral, attracting 787,000 unique visitors since Feb. 15 -- most of them from the United States.
The site takes aim at Trump and his histrionic approach to Republican politics, but it also has plenty to say and show about the island's beauty, celtic culture and laid-back lifestyle.
Tulle says it isn't hard to explain the enduring appeal of the website, which is linked to the Destination Cape Breton site and scores of stunning photos and videos showing off the island's rolling green hills, rocky headlands and secluded beaches.
"When people actually see how beautiful (Cape Breton) is, and they hear about the quality of life and they learn about the value of real estate and the strength of their dollar ... those elements are part of what's keeping this story alive," she said.
Rob Calabrese, a Cape Breton radio announcer and creator of the website, says he's received hundreds of emails from Americans making serious inquiries about moving to Nova Scotia.
"The idea of living in a place like this -- election aside -- is attractive," he says.
"Everybody is stressed, everybody is worried about something and, all of a sudden, you have this beautiful island in front of your face and it makes the imagination roam."
Tulle said the CNN team talked to real estate agent Valarie Sampson, an immigration lawyer and residents at a local restaurant in Sydney before heading to rural Marion Bridge to look at a house that's up for sale.
The modern, four-bedroom house on Hillside Road includes a 20,000-square-foot lot that overlooks the Mira River. It also has a covered deck and private dock.
Asking price: $449,000 -- or $335,000 in U.S. dollars. And many Cape Breton houses are much cheaper.
Sampson, a sales agent with Remax Park Place Inc., says she has been overwhelmed with inquiries about properties, immigration and employment opportunities.
Sales stemming from the Trump website are "inevitable," though they may be months away, she said.
"We've had people say, 'This has nothing to do with whether Trump wins. We found the website and we're looking at your island. Can we really come up and buy a property for this price?"
With the Canadian dollar continuing to show weakness against the U.S. dollar, Sampson says an uptick in sales was expected, but nothing like the response she's seen in the past two weeks.
"It's absolutely amazing, and it's been a great opportunity for us to showcase the island for its uniqueness, its beauty and its culture."
Tulle says CNN's reports will be broadcast Wednesday on CNN International's flagship global affairs program, hosted by Christiane Amanpour.

Here come the Donald dodgers

TORONTO - Brace yourself, Canada. Here come the Donald dodgers.
Google searches for “how can I move to Canada?” surged a whopping 1,150% in the wake of Donald Trump’s sweeping victory in the Super Tuesday primaries.
Quick, build a wall.
Simon Rogers, Google’s data editor, reported the looming exodus in the wee hours Wednesday, as Trump racked up seven more states in his quest for the Republican nod.
Technically, I suppose it’s possible the Google surge shows Americans wish to flee from Hillary Clinton, who won the Democrat side. But, no, Trump is their boogeyman.
Should we let them in?
If you are of a certain age, or dead, you’ll recall this country welcomed up to 40,000 draft dodgers during the Vietnam War. They decided they did not want to kill or be killed in a faraway rice paddy.
Just what we need: Another invasion of long-haired, unkempt young people spouting peace and love.
The motivation of Donald dodgers is, well, dodgier. Some may have good medical reasons. They suffer from chaetophobia, the fear of hair, especially bad hair, including weird combovers.
The rest likely are a mix of liberals, social engineers, bleeding hearts, Rosie O’Donnell, terrorist cells, the Republican establishment and illegal aliens. On the plus side, we’ll get Neil Young back.
But we can’t just fling open our doors. We’re up to our hips in 25,000 Syrian refugees, who are more traumatized and needy than, say, Jane Fonda.
It’s unclear how Donald dodgers (DD) plan to escape to Canada if Trump wins the White House. Bernie Sanders, Hillary’s socialist foe, can simply sneak across the border from his native Vermont, disguising himself in a Habs jersey and a tuque. Quebec will take anybody these days.
There is no such thing as a “political refugee” in Canadian law, so Americans would have to prove they face actual persecution, as defined by the 1951 Geneva Convention, because of race, religion, nationality, gender ... and, here’s the loophole, “political opinion.”
Or they can plunk themselves down on the floor at Pearson and claim asylum based on the likelihood they face torture, death or cruel and unusual punishment back home.
Sorry, but endless reruns of The Apprentice, a certainty if Trump wins, do not qualify as torture.
You scoff, but this is shaping up as a major humanitarian crisis. Soon, hordes of desperate Democrats and disgruntled Republicans will be braving the swells of the Detroit River, the mountain passes of the Yukon and the wind-swept steppes of Saskatchewan.
I’m trying to talk the Sun into sponsoring a Donald dodger. Ask your school, church, union or community group if this is feasible.
Remember that, like the Syrians, you will be asked to feed, clothe and house your DD. Luckily, as a recent Brock University study found, left wingers, the bulk of DDs, eat much less meat than conservatives, preferring cheaper greens and tofu.
Donald dodgers can expect open arms from our government. Indeed, their timing could not be better.
Our prime minister, according to the Washington Post this week, is the “anti-Trump.”
It is easy to imagine Justin Trudeau at the airport, greeting the first wave of Donald dodgers, handing out parkas, pink plastic hearts and photos of his dad, Pierre, who welcomed the Vietnam draft dodgers.
But wait’ll Donald dodgers get a load of downtown Toronto — and that big shiny sign atop the Trump Tower.
Sometimes, you just can’t get away.

Canada, once again, a popular option after Trump’s Super Tuesday win
The Washington Post

After Donald Trump's big Super Tuesday, Canada's immigration website was experiencing delays. Coincidence? The Internet didn't think so.
Yanks who mumbled under their breaths about moving to Canada when Trump announced his presidential run are now apparently getting serious.
According to Google Trends, searches for "How to move to Canada" surged as Tuesday's results came in. Simon Rogers, a data editor at Google, noted that the phrase's search popularity had increased by 350% between 8 p.m. and midnight ET.
At midnight, the spike reached 1,500%. To quote Trump himself: "Just look at the numbers, way up!"
Toronto city councillor Norm Kelly noted that many of his American followers were tweeting at him. "Here's the link," he responded, giving them the immigration web page.
Canada's promise is contained in more than its geographic convenience. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has been called the "anti-Trump" south of the border.
Not all Trump detractors are contemplating escape, however. A number of Americans have implored their fellow countrymen to resist taking the easy way out by heading north.
"All this (expletive) happening and you're going to say that to me? I've heard this before," comedian Hari Kondabolu said in prescient stand-up routine four years ago. "'If Bush wins again, I'm moving to Canada.' You're not moving to Canada! No one's moving to Canada. I hate to break this to you, but Canada doesn't have a special visa for American liberal cowards."

Flight school student may be deported after alleged Trump threat

ORANGE, Calif. -- A flight student from Egypt is facing deportation from the United States after being investigated by federal agents for posting on his Facebook page that he was willing to serve a life sentence for killing Donald Trump and that the world would thank him.
While U.S. prosecutors have not charged 23-year-old Emadeldin Elsayed with a crime, immigration authorities arrested him last month at the Los Angeles-area flight school he attended and now are trying to deport him, attorney Hani Bushra said Wednesday.
Elsayed, who is being held in a jail in Orange is devastated at seeing his dreams of becoming a pilot dashed over what Bushra acknowledged was a foolish social media post. An immigration court hearing will determine whether Elsayed will be deported.
"It seems like the government was not able to get a criminal charge to stick on him, so they used the immigration process to have him leave the country," Bushra said. "The rhetoric is particularly high in this election, and I just feel he got caught up in the middle."
Trump is leading the Republican presidential contenders and has used especially tough talk on immigration. He has vowed to build a wall along the entire Mexican border and has called for temporarily banning Muslims from entering the country.
U.S. Secret Service agents interviewed Elsayed in early February after he posted a photo of Trump on Facebook and wrote he was willing to serve a life sentence for killing the billionaire and the world would thank him, Bushra said. The agents returned eight days later and told him federal prosecutors had declined to charge him but said his visa to attend flight school had been revoked. He was arrested by immigration authorities.
Elsayed said he wrote the message because he was angered by Trump's comments about Muslims. He said he immediately regretted it, and he never intended to harm anyone.
"It's just a stupid post. You can find thousands of these every hour on Facebook and the media," he told The Associated Press in a phone interview from jail. "I don't know why would they think I am a threat to the national security of the United States just because of a stupid post."
Elsayed said the agent who interviewed him mentioned last year's shooting rampage by a Muslim husband-and-wife couple in San Bernardino and the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks, which were carried out by Muslims who had sought flight training in the United States.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement said in a statement that Elsayed was arrested because he violated "the terms of his admission to the United States." The agency did not provide further details.
The State Department and Secret Service declined to discuss the case. A Trump campaign spokeswoman also declined to comment.
Bushra said immigration officials alleged in court filings that the flight school had tipped off federal officials to the Facebook post.
Alex Khatib, owner of Universal Air Academy, said he knew nothing of the case until federal agents showed up to interview and later detain Elsayed.
Elsayed is from Cairo, but he said he spent much of his life in Saudi Arabia, where his father worked as a civil engineer. He came to the United States for the first time last September to attend flight school with the hope of returning to Egypt and getting a job at an airline, he said.
He said he'd like to continue his studies in the United States if the government lets him stay. If not, he will seek a refund of some of the $65,000 he has spent on his education and use it to study elsewhere.
Khatib said federal officials asked him to terminate paperwork he had issued so Elsayed could study for his pilot's license. He said he would take him back if the government allows.
"He is honestly a good student," Khatib said. "He seemed to be a good guy."

Angry ‘Patriot’ Who Assaulted A Black Woman At A Trump Rally Finds Out It Ruined His Life
Imagine if you will that you are one of the dullards who frequents Donald Trump rallies. Imagine that Donald Trump’s rhetoric is actually exciting enough for you to become energized when he hits the stage. Now imagine that because you are of the low-information variety American voter, your favorite part of the show is the racism.
You would be just like young Joseph Pryor, who was just kicked off of the US Marines’ delayed enlistment program, meaning he will not EVER be a United States Marine, because of the antics he pulled in connection with the assault of a black woman at a recent Trump rally in Kentucky.
Louisville police added to the mess the Trump supporters got themselves into by announcing they’re looking at filing criminal charges against several people. There has been some speculation that Trump himself may be facing charges as a ringleader, but that is unconfirmed at this time. What we do know is that a woman was treated with the utmost of disrespect, was physically and verbally assaulted and quite possibly had her civil rights violated for no reason other than the color of her skin.
It’s a common scene at these things. Protesters stand as quietly as they can and are eventually discovered and removed with extreme prejudice. Trump security personnel, local police and tens of thousands of unruly thugs in red hats solves those issues while Trump stands on stage scanning for the next people to have booted out. It’s nothing but a reality TV hook.

Matthew Heimbach, the violent white supremacist who most visibly harassed and assaulted Nwanguma at the Trump rally, was fired earlier this year from the Indiana Department of Child Services when they learned of his pattern of racism and bigotry. It seems that he has now opted to take out his anger about being terminated by sporting a "Make America Great Again" cap and shoving young women around.
In fact, multiple men assaulted Nwanguma at the Trump rally and should be charged criminally for it. Speaking confidentially with The News, several activists who were punched, kicked and shoved by Trump supporters communicated that they have already started the process of filing these charges — potentially including some against Trump himself for creating and fostering such a hateful and unsafe environment.
Police confirmed to The News that an investigation is underway.
“We have received three criminal complaints regarding alleged assaults at the Donald Trump rally on Monday and are actively investigating them,” Louisville Metro Police Department spokeswoman Alicia Smiley said.
