      That’s nice. Truly. Now how about a hit on his interaction with the elderly woman in Quebec whom he attacked as “intolerant” and racist because of her questions about uncontrolled, illegal immigration?https://twitter.com/CTVNews/status/1031215424048914432 …

      Senator Frum: the "elderly woman" whose side you take refused to be served by a Muslim dental assistant because she was a Muslim. Are you willing to condemn that racist act?

          Don’t overuse the word “racist”. It’s like crying “wolf” too often. 😏

          How is that racist? If I convert to Islam, does my race change? #cdnpoli #islamisnotarace

          Did Trudeau know that when he "responded" to her totally legitimate question? Because if he didn't, then her views are irrelevant. If he did, then WHAT WAS SHE DOING THERE? If his team and security had known her associations, she should have been screened out.....

          UNLESS they deliberately set out to use her to showcase his "fight against polarization", which would open an entirely different AND UGLY can of worms for Trudeau. Either way, opinions are not criminal, and NO PM EVER has a right to tell ANY Cdn they have "no place in Canada."

          The issue remains, the PM did NOT know who she was when she asked the question he refused to answer and had her arrested for asking. She was arrested for asking about the money being spent in illegal immigrants WHICH IS A FAIR QUESTION even if she is a lousy spokesperson.

          When did this supposed racist act take place? If you’re going to throw up wild stuff on Twitter at least post the evidence..

          Is the term "racist" being used to twist arms and to gain votes? I hear it, only, within political campaigns. I do not hear it in real life.
