    What do people think of him? I know women seem to love him but to me he comes across as a smug fcuker. Preaching about climate change but then flies around in private planes. Seen footage of him in parliament where he wont answer questions directed at him. Heard from a mate in Canada that he's slowly losing popularity.

    Over-hyped, over-privileged, over-polished, soundbyte central. Fairly innocuous when you compare him to his US counter-part but I suppose so does Hitler...

    Fairly punchable face if you ask me.

    As current leader's go, I'd say he's pretty good.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,045 ✭✭✭✭gramar


    I would.

    Spoilt brat leftist wanker tosspot who is contributing to the downfall of his country by encouraging multiculturalism and mass immigration and changing the law for people who want to be referred to or who identify as attack helicopters. Little Timmy is not an Apache model of attack helicopter and you called him a gob****e? You're going to the courts son.


    He'll meet a politically disastrous end as the crap starts to pile up and Canada starts to see the same problems Europe is.

    Also an argument for a lot of people not to vote.

    He has the most Facebook likes of any Canadian leader ever!!

    He also casually decided he wasn't going to implement election promises, and he's a neoliberal shill.

    But he's like, so handsome, and he makes all the right liberal poses.

    Canada though. If running a country was a videogame, Canada would be easy mode.

    I know I'm in the minority, but I prefer his *NSYNC work over his solo offerings.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,862 ✭✭✭mikhail


    He promised the Canadians electoral reform and then backed out of it even though single transferable vote was recommended by his own commission and is widely backed in Canada. That alone makes him an undemocratic wanker.

    Looks like thats already happening over there. Seemingly the amount of illegals going over the border is rightly upsetting the locals


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,723 ✭✭✭seenitall


    Handsome? Really?!

    I just googled him, and he looks like a sheep with birth defects...

    Well, there's no accounting for tastes, as they say, but, eh, I wouldn't, anyway!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,348 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    Like Varadkar he appears to give a nod to being socially progressive but economically and fiscally is very conservative. He's still behind Trans Mountain pipeline, backs Trump's Keystone XL pipeline and with CETA will allow Candian companies to sue European governments outside of the normal court system. Himself and Leo are two neo-liberal peas in a pod.

    Bit of a dilemma. I disagree with his politics, but the incels despise him, so that makes me like him quite a lot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,635 ✭✭✭✭Arghus


    I'd have to go out drinking with him to gauge an accurate assessment.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,996 ✭✭✭✭Spanish Eyes


    He is hot. and young just like Vlad and Macron.

    So what. Canada can be a strange enough place. Did you hear about the parents who refused to assign a sex to their child for a health card. Kid is U (Unidentified, unreal, un what?) and that is accepted. Nice country.

    The parents can obviously decide this for their child. chills......

    He's not a "leftist", he's leader of the Liberal party. There is no such thing as leftist, he's a liberal.

    Canada had always been multicultural and has thrived. Canada has also always welcomed immigration on a large scale. It's a big country with huge natural resources and no one really living in it.

    I'm not seeing the 'so handsome' thing myself to be honest. Saw photos online today of Trudeau and Varadkar meeting and personally I think Leo Varadkar is a much more attractive looking man.

    Yeah & now the locals & Sikhs are complaining about the introduction of Islam into schools. They just passed M 103 which is pretty much an anti Islamaphobia law when there was already a law for blasphemy. Canada is slowly getting turned to favour Islam. There are many people who went to Canada to get away from radicalised Muslims but see them now being welcomed with open arms

    He does seem to be a great PM though

    Slammed for a report suggesting he should only attend question period in the House of Commons once a week
    Family holiday costing $127,000 to the Aga Khans private Island paid by the tax payer
    Theres his fascination of showing off his socks to world leaders

    Just like the Irish and Italians complained the Sikhs and other Indians. Just like the Indians complained about the Chinese.

    Muslims aren't being favoured, they are being welcomed the way the previous immigrant groups were. Just like the muslims already there I suppose.

    Now would they be East Indians or West Indians ?
    BTW I heard that description used in Canada.
    Oh and the Indians who chased cowboys are First Nations.

    BTW the Chinese were in Canada before the West or East Indians were showing up.

    Here is interesting point about challenges to muslims in Canada.
    Guess who were leading the fight against religious prayers time, muslim in particular, accommodation in public schools in Peel a district not to far away from Toronto itself ?
    Yep it is immigrants or children of immigrants from India.

    That must cause some a bit of a headache as usually those against islam are, you know, white racists and nazis.

    They are being favoured do some research & you will see.

    Example
    If this was the other way around it would be considered racist
    https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2015/08/26/disabled-man-told-subsidized-housing-is-for-muslims-only.html

    Also Chinese, Irish, Sikh, Indians have all gotten along pretty well over the years add in Muslims & theres a problem
