Justin Trudeau Accused of Groping Reporter in 2000

In a recently resurfaced editorial, Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau appears to apologize for “inappropriately handling” a young journalist nearly 18 years ago.

According to the Creston Valley Advance, Trudeau told the young woman: “I’m sorry. If I had known you were reporting for a national paper, I would never have been so forward.”

The editorial, largely dismissive of the apology, chides Trudeau over what the author perceives as a lack of self-awareness as the son of former prime minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau.

“[S]houldn’t the son of a former prime minister be aware of the rights and wrongs that go along with public socializing?” the editorial asks.

“Didn’t he learn through his vast experiences in public life, that groping a strange young woman isn’t in the handbook of proper etiquette, regardless of who she is, what her business is or where they are?”

The only surprise here is that it was a female reporter.

So if she did not work for a national publication it would have been ok?

And how old was he in 2000? Fifteen?

I don’t care. (and I’m no fan of this clown)

It’s the same as how I felt about Smalley.

Who appointed you posting police? Who cares if it was posted again? You speak for noone, go away.

I believe he was about 28, not 15 as somebody guessed.

Also the homo guess is just based on the lisp, it will take a few generations to remove the heterosex from the Trudeau gene pool. Bisex, maybe.

When we say Pierre was the “father of the nation” we are not talking in symbolic terms.

Dude you have problems. It is FR policy to search before posting. Has been forever. I didn’t bitch at the Admin to get the thread locked. I would hate to be your wife, your kids or your dog. Black eyed, bruised and cowering under the porch respectively. Major anger issues. If it is PTSD ok, but otherwise you are a major a-hole.

“I’m sorry. If I had known you were reporting for a national paper, I would never have been so forward.”


I checked to see if this was a parody.

So, what, you can grab the p***ies of local reporters any time? Sounds like he bought a copy of Anthony Villargairosa’s “How To Nail Local TV Reporterettes For Actual Dummies.”

The democrats have the 2020 presidential candidate that they’ve been looking for.

Now to annex Canada to make him ‘legal’

Ooops, he’d be a democrat. Legal doesn’t come into the discussion.
