Adding insult to injury, the passengers, including social media influencers and reality TV stars, were branded “idiots” Wednesday by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

MONTREAL (AP) — Passengers who filmed themselves partying without masks aboard a chartered flight from Montreal to Mexico face being stranded after three airlines refused to fly them home to Canada.

Sunwing Airlines cancelled the return charter flight from Cancun that had been scheduled for Wednesday and Air Transat and Air Canada also both said they will refuse to carry the passengers.

Adding insult to injury, they were branded “idiots” Wednesday by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Adding insult to injury, they were branded “idiots” Wednesday by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Air Canada issued a statement Wednesday that “to the extent that we can identify the passengers who were part of the group, Air Canada is denying boarding to ensure the safety of other passengers and its crew.”

Among those looking for a way home was Rebecca St-Pierre, a 19-year-old student from Trois-Rivieres, Quebec, who said she felt abandoned, not knowing how she’ll pay for her hotel room as her stay is extended indefinitely.

She said she tested positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday and was in isolation in Tulum, south of Cancun. She estimated that about 30 others on the flight have tested positive.

Is anybody in the hospital? Dead?

Trudeau has a lot of nerve calling someone ELSE any idiot.

So they tested positive on the plane - which means they got it while in Canada.

Here’s your totalitarian government for you.

Illegal unvaccinated immigrants - come on in!

Hey. Can we send all of our social media influencers and reality TV stars there too? If they’ll keep them I’m all for it.

RE: No one will fly them home.

Captain Merrill Stubing to the Purser and Cruise Director McCoy:
These people are stranded. Get them on board and we’ll get them back home. And try not to fall in love with any of them before we get there. That includes you, Doctor Bricker.

Fun Fact:

A former roommate of President Eisenhower’s grandson in boarding school at Phillips Exeter Academy, Fred Grandy gave up acting to represent his home state of Iowa. The Republican served in Congress from 1987 to 1995.

Boston.com disabled their YouTube comments because public opinion isn’t so favorable towards the control-freak, COVIDiot totalitarians.

Ha! That’ll teach them Canucks not to party!

This seems a bit harsh. Even Texas let Carnival Cruz back in after his escape to Cancun.

Speaking of Trudope...

Matt Gurney: Justin Trudeau's G7 mask hypocrisy is a symptom of deeper rot in our political system This is all part of a broader trend: our politics is increasingly separated from governing

Consider this a blessing in disguise. Just stay away from Canada. Find somewhere else to live. Somewhere better. Just don’t ask me where that might be. The USA may be currently better. At this time. But for how long?

What? Are they saying the people who WERE wearing masks and WERE vaccinated weren’t protected?

Is that what they were saying? Really?

If they are upset the young people were drinking and vaping, that is a different thing. And it was a charter flight, so if the young people who weren’t participating in unruly festivities didn’t let the organizer know, that is their business.

The douchebaggery of the Canadian officials is what I find most irritating.

Canada’s government abandoning their citizens in Mexico clearly states that the Canadian government no longer gives a damn about their people.

Time for a revolution in Canada.
