Quit being such a snarky, racist bastard! Cows are sacred to the Hindu people.
You and your smart-ass damn "cattle list."

Yikes!...you know when the CBC is slaying Trudeau, it must be pretty bad.
The government could have just said, 'We goofed.' Instead, it doubled down on a conspiracy theory
The best-case scenario would have been that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's recent trip to India was merely embarrassing.
His trip to China back in December was embarrassing: he left Canada amid the expectation that his visit would launch formal free trade negotiations, but returned largely empty handed except for a few side deals. The Chinese apparently weren't as keen on our government's "progressive trade agenda" as we had hoped or believed. But the damage was limited mostly to our prime minister's ego.
Trudeau's India trip, on the other hand, only started out as embarrassing: for days, he paraded around his costumed family and danced the bhangra like a bad impression of Phil Dunphy after his first yoga lesson.
His office shrugged off suggestions that he was snubbed by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and had to correct the record when Trudeau misspoke and announced that India would be investing $1 billion in Canada (the figure is actually $250 million).
These were easily forgivable blunders. But then an invited guest — a would-be assassin — almost showed up to ruin the party. Don't you hate it when that happens?
To recap: the Canadian government returned from a bridge-building gambit during which it invited a convicted would-be assassin to a special event with the prime minister only to accuse the Indian government of orchestrating the invitation. MP Randeep Sarai has been made to step down from his position as B.C. caucus chair in response to issuing the invitation, but there are no apparent consequences for anyone in the PMO for failing to vet the invitation.
No evidence whatsoever has been provided to corroborate the theory that India was behind the Atwal invitation — or explanation as to how it somehow influenced Sarai into extending the invitation — but we are nevertheless to take the prime minister's word for it that nefarious agents within the Indian government executed the plan.
This trip could have been an embarrassing but innocuous parade of mild indignities. The government has chosen to make it much more serious than that.

He's quoted as saying that he doesn't read newspapers or watch the news. If something important happens, someone will tell him...I hope someone is explaining to the hapless imbicile the gravity of the mistake that he's made.
Here's what the normally liberal Rick Mercer said about Trudeau's trip to India.

Yep. Here's my Top Ten list of Trudeau oddities.
1. He dances to the beat of a different drummer.
2. The acorn does not fall far from the tree.
3. Asleep at the wheel.
4. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link.
5. Don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining!
6. Dumber than a box of rocks.
7. A few sandwiches short of a picnic.
8. Like a frog in a frying pan.
9. He's half a bubble off.
10. His mouth is writing cheques that his body can't cash.

Way to go Trudeau. I would call this a miserable fail in your so-called "trade mission".
Idiot.
India hikes chickpea duty again
The Indian government has raised the import tariff for chickpeas from 40 percent to 60 percent. This is the second time India has raised the tariff.
Published in the Gazette of India on March 1, the government said the tariff is to be imposed immediately, due to circumstances that make it necessary to take immediate action.

I actually thought it was funny, but you, being you, always look at the negative. :lol:
