OTTAWAPrime Minister Justin Trudeau is taking a pass on a meeting this week with U.S. President Donald Trump and Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.
Trudeaus office says he wishes the two countries and their leaders well but Trudeau will remain in Ottawa for a cabinet retreat and a scheduled sitting of Parliament.
Lopez Obrador is travelling to D.C. in part to celebrate the entry-into-force of the new North American free-trade deal and had expressed hope Trudeau would join as well.
Trudeaus office says the prime minister will continue to work with both countries to ensure the agreement becomes a success and helps ensure North America emerges stronger from the COVID-19 pandemic.
Trudeau had been asked last week whether hed attend the meeting, and had not mentioned either Parliament or the retreat as reasons not to go.

Why would Trump want to meet with a racist that wears black face?

No upside for Trudeau to be seen with Trump.

I’m guessing China’s pressuring him over a decision to let that Huawei chick go back to China without waiting for the extradition-to-the-US process to complete.
Justin’s so paralyzed with fear over offending China, he’s even having trouble affixing his false eyebrows, let alone meeting with Trump.

Theres a reason Canada is the worlds worst underachiever. They have embraced every bad idea that the US and England ever had and made them even worse. Good people but too many are hopelessly misguided

His part time job doing ‘black face’ at weekend parties would be in jeopardy.

I don’t blame Trudeau for staying hunkered down after one of his own troops tried to frag him.

No upside for Trudeau to be seen with Trump. He's still smarting from their last meeting no doubt.
