Canada election: Justin Trudeau rally cancelled after angry protests
BBC ^ | August 28, 2021 | BBC

Justin Trudeau has been forced to cancel an election rally after a crowd of angry protesters ambushed the event.

The Canadian prime minister had been set to address supporters in Bolton, Ontario, but the event was called off over security concerns.

Dozens of protesters gathered at the rally and shouted obscenities before Mr Trudeau could speak.

The Liberal prime minister is hoping to secure a majority in a snap general election he called earlier this month.

But in recent days his canvassing efforts have been dogged by protests against Covid-19 vaccines and government restrictions.

Dare I hope that there might be some slim chance that Princess Justine Castro might be rejected like a pail of sour milk by the majority of Canadians, or am I just engaging in wishful thinking... I wonder how many of my deceased relatives will end up voting? (rolls eyes)

EDIT: Oh, and in case some smart guy from Elections Canada is reading this page: unlike some people out there, I have never engaged in voting fraud in my entire life, and never will. Maybe old-fashioned thinking on my part, but...

This could be the biggest repudiation of an arrogant political pr!ck in my lifetime.

There was a video posted on Mewe this week of Canadians chasing premiere Justine down a street booing him, cursing him and generally being very pissed off at him.

Too bad the U.S. doesn’t have a parliamentary system. There could be a “snap” election to replace Biden.

Interesting to note that the MSM ‘presstitutes’, the ones that received $700 MILLION from the gubmint, are trying hard to get people to stop protesting against True-dope. They are claiming that too much protesting will cause some voters to feel sorry for the Prime Mistake and vote for him, instead, if they don’t stop protesting.

He’s a coward but also they are trying to set up some bogus “threat of right wing extremism” meme for the gullible media to run with.

Say what you want about papa but he would likely have faced down the hecklers (and that applies whoever papa is although nobody ever heckled Keith Richards as far as I know).

Will Canadians reject the pretty-faced fascist? He gives them so many benefits! It’s hard to reject those benefits even if it means living under totalitarianism.

Canadians love Justin Trudeau just like we all love Joe Birdbrain and Cackling Kamala.

I wish we could call "snap general elections" here in the U.S. too.

Biden would be out on his 78-year old *ss.

I thought this might be the case:

Mr Trudeau called the election on 15 August when polls indicated his minority Liberal government looked within reach of forming a majority.

Might be the biggest mistake since Hillary was President...

...Or Chrétien, who would have rolled up his sleeves and doled out a few Shawinigan Handshakes, if he felt it necessary. :P

And we also saw him this week being chased out of a western Canadian suburb. He only became prime Minister because his father was prime Minister for many years in the 70s. Justin is a dummy frat boy and in way over his head. He looooves masks too.

Wasn’t he just chased out of Surry Vancouver by angry constituents a few days ago? Good maybe Canadians are starting to wake up.

Ambushed? Are we talking about one of those insurrections were only the police are armed?
