  1. PUHleeeeze… this puff-ball is any different from O’bambam in the latters tried and true example of only talking to fellow ‘puffers’ like The View?
    Anything Brony Justine does was pulled off by US Democrats 3 years prior. Google anything 2010 to find out what he does next!
    Example? Canadian racism? Seriously??????? I’m an immigrant from Scotland. Go back to MY homeland and bring up religion!!!! I watched my mother’s reaction when I told her my daughter was going to be baptized.
    Catholic.
    Yet she was totally fine I married french canadian. Go figure!

  2. The only difference between what happened here and what would happen to SUN news in China is that the reporter here wasn’t arrested and thrown into some gulag for daring to question the rulers. Not that JT wouldn’t have had Daniel thrown in the dungeon if he could have. Meanwhile, in China, the rest of the Canadian so-called media would either be cowering under rocks or kissing the dictators’ a$$es.

  3. Young Turdeau did everything but flip SUN TV the bird. Sorry about the flashback. No hesitation for a sitdown with Mainbridge on CBC however. A stand and deliver moment that was met with a hasty retreat. If that doesn’t indicate the mettle of the man/boy nothing will. Turdeau is all about image manipulation and less we forget ‘top don’ management.

  4. I’m just a regular non political Canadian however every time I see that arrogant, man child on TV my lip curls and I feel like spitting which leads me to wonder how many other regular Canadians feel the same way. I can’t believe 40% of Canadians believe this useless dilettante would make a good PM.

  5. That would be 40% of the people polled. Have you ever been polled? We all have to just ignore polls and pollsters and anyone who believes them. Don’t forget the Alberta election. Or the last federal election. They are useless snapshots of the opinions of low information citizens who only want to be left alone and will say anything to get off the phone.

  6. I think Obama got away with it hiding behind his skin color. If you questioned his policies or lack of experience you were racist. I wonder how Justin will make out as he can’t hide behind the affirmative action shield.

  7. You just gotta know, that during his craven retreat, he was muttering under his breath.. I’m gonna tell Mom.. just you wait,,

  8. I have been saying this for a year now. He will not win the male vote, and even a sizable portion of the female vote finds him nauseating and repulsive. He represents all the negative elements of the 1%, and none of the positives.
    Can you see any trades people/small business owners/blue collar workers voting for this over-confident, translucent man child?

  9. Thanks Eastern Paul, when an Easterner sees the irony in SUN News showing Trudeau the Exit Door, it still shows hope for this country!!!

  10. I’d like to see all politicians take time to speak to media and answer questions that aren’t softballs from media friendly pundits or scripted or, like Justin leave when you don’t feel like talking to that source.
    I’d like to see our PM also go before the media on a regular basis. Our politicians are answerable to us and one key way that can happen is to go before the media so we can see them answer questions outside their comfort zone.
    Justin, you hate Sun, I get it. But you still need to answer their questions and as potentally our next PM go before the media on a regular basis so questions can be asked of you on a wide range of topics. PM, you need to go before the media on a regular basis.

  11. Justin regularly attacks the PM for not going before the press and dodging their questions. In this video we see the shiny pony doing the same damn thing.

  12. Ah, the disingenuousness abounds! Which is probably not the best way to kick off a “reform” program.
    Logically, Mr. Trudeau, Jr. didn’t comment because that would have confirmed the contradictions in his position — so, best say nothing and keep ’em guessing. If his calculation had been that the Liberal Senators would go quietly into the night at his behest, that would imply that Mr. Trudeau, Jr. still controlled them, which would not exactly make them independent. If, on the other hand, his calculation had been that the Liberal Senators would do what they ultimately did, nothing would have changed, which would not exactly make them independent either.
    Quite apart from which, Mr. Trudeau, Jr. is being less than totally forthright about his motivation for this move. Logically, again, nobody risks a split in his/her parliamentary party twenty or so months before an election, or risks giving offence to the party’s previous prime ministers, including his father’s memory, unless the calculation had been made that explicitly holding on to the party’s Senators was going to cost more than it was going to benefit. And let’s face it — David Smith is old news, and Keith Davey is no longer, so it’s difficult to see what benefit the Liberal Party is getting from an organizational point of view from the folks they have in the Senate now anyway. And then they voted against the expulsions of Wallin, Duffy and Brazeau, which had to be embarrassing. So the potential damage to be done from the Auditor-General’s report certainly had to have loomed large.
    It seems doubtful to me that the public generally will buy Mr. Trudeau, Jr.’s misdirection on these points (some will, and the media will, of course — heck, Michael Den Tandt is already out there blathering on about what a brilliant strategic and tactical move this is, without actually providing a plausible explanation as to why). And Mr. Trudeau, Jr. and his advisors have got to know that there is a high risk that the public will see this for what it is. So the fear must be very great, indeed (someone here referred to it yesterday as a Hail Mary play). Despite this, it behooves Mr. Harper and Mr. Mulcair to be sure to nail the Auditor-General’s findings, in all their splendour, to Mr. Trudeau, Jr.’s masthead.

  13. Exactly he is being a hypocrite. But pulling away from partisan opinions I, the average Canadian, want all the major leaders to go before the media for unscripted question and answer periods on a regular basis. Sure, Justin is a massive hypocite and this act alone doesn’t confirm it. There are other examples out there. But the bigger issue to me is I am tired of talking points from all sides. If you want to be the leader you need to answer to the people via the media when they ask questions.

  14. I’m not sure what that would accomplish. This is politics, not some theoretical highscrewl class president thing. Your idealist view of the world is charming but get real. You really think any politician could trust a reporter other than one on their side? Our PM figured out a long time ago that what’s important is getting your message out to your supporters. His conduit to do that is not the parliamentary press gallery.

  15. Give it a couple of weeks and what is really happening will probably emerge.
    Do you think that Peter Pan has heard that a number of his Senate caucus members will have to answer some embarrassing questions about their expense accounts?
    Do you think that the Auditor General will have some comments about the fudgy goo accounting for Senate research staff being put at the disposal of the much shrunken 3rd party budget for research staff?
    Do you think that the RCMP will file fraud charges against Mac Harb – the fourth and very frequently unmentioned participant in the first Senate expense scandal?
    This divorce is a case of cynical advisors showing him a way to escape before some Senate spending scandal hits his fan.

  16. Trudeau is doing exactly what Harper did; expelling all the corrupt senators from the party.

  17. Pierre Elliot Trudeau was intelligent, erudite, articulate and ALWAYS ready to share his policies and debate journalists or anyone else.
    I met him once at a speaking engagement and we got into a 30 second argument. 🙂
    Justin gives the impression of just being another “empty chair”.
    That is how SunnewsTV should treat him.

  18. The Liberal senators decided to ignore Turdeau and form their own caucus and the speaker of the Senate agreed. Smart move Justin – a true Liberal genius.

  19. “Pierre Elliot Trudeau was intelligent, erudite, articulate…”
    That’s a real stretch. Indeed watching the video the first thought that comes to my mind is “Like father, like son”.

  20. Stay classy, Justin.
    Trudeau has quite the reputation of treating Sun News reporters in such a fashion. As repellent and juvenile as it was, at least it gives Daniel Prousalidis some spotlight for his hard work and it cements what many people already know about Trudeau- he’s a fluff-spined fool.

  21. Justin gives the impression of just being another “empty chair”.
    Sadly, another “empty chair” is in his second term as POTUS. I fear Canada can be hit with a similar disaster.

  22. It looks like a CBC studio. Is that right? If so, isn’t it odd that Ezra got inside the place with a Sun camera?

  23. A gazillion trees have died telling us what a fool Rob Ford is for telling the Toronto Star to FOAD and refusing to answer their questions.
    We will never of hear this anywhere else on the MSM.

  24. “Pierre Elliot Trudeau was intelligent, erudite, articulate and ALWAYS ready to share his policies and debate journalists or anyone else.”
    I like my version a lot better: Pierre Trudeau was a yellow, arrogant, sissy. His stupidity was only exceeded by the utter simple-mindedness of those who voted for him.

  25. Ray Hurd a lifelong liberal has described Peter Mansbridge as a newsreader nothing more.

  26. If Trudeau Sr. was so “intelligent, erudite, articulate,” how come he married Maggie? Once you’ve figured that one out, you’ve got the whole story … one the MSM will never tell …

  27. What an arrogant prig and to borrow a quote Justin used in the HOC against Peter Kent, he treated the reporter like a “piece of shit” because he didn’t represent his media choice.

  28. “Our politicians are answerable to us and one key way that can happen is to go before the media so we can see them answer questions outside their comfort zone.”
    I disagree.
    Who exactly appointed the unelected media to be the inquisitors of our elected officials?
    That job is for the elected members of other parties to do in the House of Commons.
    The reason why PMSH doesn’t expose himself and his caucus to the media is because the media is largely one-sided.
    Why should the unelected media take the flak for questions that opposing MPs would get but don’t have the guts to spend political capital on by asking those questions and wrestling with the issues in Question Period?

  29. I hated his fathers politics but I have to admit the man was a political savant. Unfortunately His son has seemed to have picked up an extra gene somewhere along the way.

  30. Just wait until he becomes PM God forbid) and starts ignoring the whole of western Canada because he we wouldn’t vote for him. Maybe it will be the west separating from the rest of Canada.

  31. PET enjoyed intellectually bullying even the left leaning media while his Spawn can’t think on his feet.

  32. A truly psychotic display of hubris. But as always, nature and Karma are there to deflate the grandure-deluded – did you see how on his haughty retreat he almost walked into the closet rather than the exit – somewhere Darwin smiles.

  33. His father was an arrogant, pompous, intolerable ass. Despite that PET would not have been afraid to stop in his tracks, turn around and, if not answer the reporter’s question, would at lease confront and challenge him. I guess the backbone gene was not passed on in his family.

  34. I agree with you. Now I am a Conservative supporter, but I would support Mulcair as a leader before I’d support Justin. Justin just makes me cringe. It is all so phony and pretentious, and it would be totally embarrassing if he ever actually got elected PM.

  35. If the Liberal senators have formed their own Liberal Senate Caucus, why hasn’t anybody told Wikipedia that they aren’t independent?
    (Senate of Canada – Wikipedia article.)

  36. I hate it when people bring up Margaret as a way of dissing on either of the Trudeau men. It is unfair to her, I think. Also, if you want to know why he married Margaret, just look at her pictures from those early days. A whole lot of 50 year old men would not be tossing her out of bed. Really, it has nothing to do with intelligence.

  37. More Liberal BS from Trudeau, there’s no frigg’n way 600,000 people listened to him on CBC!
    Unless it played in China, maaaaaybe.
