Canadians must prefer their public men without hats. Suppose its a safety dance for them.

Should have given him a pay raise for being so brave in leftist Canada. He literally risked his life.

If all it said was “MAGA” on it and the guy was from Canada he might not even have known. Not everyone follows U.S. acronmyns.

What about the pussy hat judge?If he was wearing a religion of peace hat, or an Obama hat, he would have gotten a pay raise.

I can think of situations when it would be improper for a judge to display outward support for *any* politician,*any* political Party.Don't know if this incident qualifies.

OK...just clicked the link.He wore it in a court room.Maybe that does apply.But it would have been interesting to see if he got the same treatment if he had worn an ILLary hat.
To: Olog-hai
He should have worn a "Make Canada Great Again?" hat.

Who makes those, and what do they represent in terms of political stances? I would not like to see them appropriated by those of Trudeau’s ilk.
