“He pulled out of the TPP at five minutes to midnight and then rocked up at the EAS like he belonged there,” the official said.
Trudeau is probably still surprised the delegates didn’t ask him for selfies.
While Canadians have the gumption to complain about Trump and Russia, Trudeau is abandoning our traditional friends and cozying up to China.

Cozying up to China is good sense. Bailing on Australia and the like was not, especially if it really was done to ‘protect’ us from foreign cars and cultural influences.
Well he does admire their system. You know: Cultural Revolution, Great Leap Forward, thirty million starved to death and all that.
Don’t forget the personality cult that Mao established.
$urely you aren’t inferring payback for illegal campaign donations…
And this:

That’s because China ha lots of money. He can sell us out to them for a good price.
aaaaand the money came from us chasing after cheap merchandise via all those trade deals touted by lieberals and conservatists alike.
lieberals catering to leftoid thought, conservatists catering to the short term interests of bizznizz.
see how that works?
“Cozying up to China is good sense.”
You have no frigging clue. It makes as much sense as cosying up to Germany in the ’30s would have.
Unbelievable…
Use the Chinese to get better pricing out of the USA but do not confuse them for friends. Saying that one has to realize the Chinese will dominate, at least in SE Asia, within 20 years.
Why the surprise? He’s following closely in his father’s footsteps.
I’m no liberal fan boy but this looks like a cheap shot with no merit. Did you read the whole column?
… because he said Canada simply was not ready to sign a deal that is not yet in the best interest of Canadians…
That, if true, is exactly what he should have done.
They were saying same thing about japan in the late ’80s.
“Trudeau is abandoning our traditional friends”
In international relations, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies, only permanent interests.

Are you aware of the circumstances surrounding that meeting? How the diplo in the negotiations thought everything was all clear? How everyone thought Canada was on board? How no one signalled that Trudeau would change his mind? How he didn’t seem to understand the insult he gave? How it wasn’t binding?
Cheap shot? Who cares? The child-man made several people in that room lose serious face in a region of the world where face is everything and because of that gross misunderstanding we’ve lost face.
He is a jackass and deserves every single belittlement sent his way.
Bongo is motivated by the corruption on the china file that began with chairman Mao Strong, da liddle thief, Power Corp etc. There is a lotta dough at play here. These guys are bongo’s handlers. He is doing their bidding.
One more thing that PMSH would never do that PM Sock monkey is ready to do right now….like try to force our allies to accept Canada into a trade agreement by embarrassing them publicly.
Well, Unca Mo was happy with his escape, er, living arrangements in China. Of course Selfie Socks will obey Mo and Power Corp doctrine.
correct, correct aaaaand correct.
the whining about ‘not in the best interests’ is just a coverup for the SCREWUP. change the subject, bait and switch, answer the question that wasnt asked, and claim ‘the delay is because’. all variations on dismissing a SCREWUP.
get used to it Canuckistan !!! we got the sock puppet until 2019 !!!
China has a math problem, with 1 child per couple, and a culture problem, with a preference for boys. The ratios there are not good.
You and Lance have to share a bingo. A most pathetic excuse for a prime minister. His father at least had some brains to go along with his Marxism.
Absolutely. There is an agenda here. The Liberals Party has been in bed with China for some time. Deals with China will serve China and the Liberals — but not Canadians broadly.
OK: Sidewinder Report. Look it up.
When somebody doesn’t show up for work without an explanation at my office I suspect the worst. Substance abuse is always on the list of suspicions.
Maybe Socks and his entourage were enjoying the local entertainment and doing some research with an eye to changes coming July 1st back in Canada. Being a snow board instructor would have given him the experience to be a connoisseur of said products.
Funny, I don’t see any adults not showing up for work without notice.
Or, just maybe, it is part of a master plan.
“…Or, just maybe, it is part of a master plan.”
Maybe. But, with certainty, our PM isn’t the master doing the planning
Sell ‘us’ out? What does this even mean? Just more Yellow Peril crap.
