Trudeau indulged in generalities, platitudes and effusive praise of the UN. He hit the left's favorite buzzwords, extolling the importance of feminism and diversity. A presentation of which Obama would have been proud of
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau visited United Nations headquarters in New York today and declared Canada’s commitment to fully supporting the United Nations agenda, including the Paris climate change agreement, human rights (particularly the rights of refugees) and UN peacekeeping. “It is time for Canada to step up once again,” he said. To that end, Prime Minister Trudeau announced Canada’s candidacy for election to the UN Security Council as a non-permanent member for a two year term that begins in 2021. It is not unusual for member states to begin their campaigning for a an elective seat years before the term is to commence.
The prime minister introduced several members of his “gender balanced” cabinet and reaffirmed several times his government’s commitment to “feminism.” He emphasized his support for increased numbers of refugees from Syria to enter Canada and become, in his words, “new Canadians.” If he had any security concerns that might arise from a large influx of refugees, he did not show it.
of course...
Was there any doubt? It would take a MAN to give the United Nations the heave ho.
Paging Mr. Trump, paging.....
But even a Trump will do nothing about the UN. The UN is a sacred cow to American politicians. Did Reagan do anything about it?
Move the UN to Ottawa.
Beat me to it.
“Canada is back” won him the election but outside of Canada, nobody gives a tinker’s damn anyway. I mean, the combination of Canada and the United Nations is sort of like adding ice cubes to cream of water soup.
How much can we get for selling the UN to Canada?
