Ezra Levant: “Uh-oh. Some rogue social media intern at the CBC is about to get Ghomeshi’d”.
Dozens of diplomats skip Justin Trudeau's address to world leaders at the United Nations; plenty of empty seats. pic.twitter.com/fggxuQklsd

He should have given it bare-chested.
Turd’oh shoulda addressed the UN shirtless. That would’ve filled the seats. Most likely the members of this august assembly were afraid of that sound of escaping steam* vocal affectation of the chucklehead.
Honestly didn’t think it would be this fast that the world elites grew tired of our mistake. Canada’s back!

I was wondering the same thing… did the lispy actor and George Soros employee take off his shirt? The Media has declared the lispy uhmms and ahhs of the half baked Potatohead as “very successful”… George Soros must be very happy with his new pet. Someone should remind the imbecilic Potatohead that Parliament is open, time to stop embarrassing himself abroad and bring his lispy act back to the pathetic country that voted for the idiot.
Yes, Canada’s back! The bad news is that the world loves you for your body, not your mind.
Rosemary Barton just mentioned on CBC but hedged it by adding that not many showed up for Harper either.
I’ve personally known Community Organizers, and Justin Trudeau is NO Community Organizer !
Did Soapy at least get a good seat there?
“bring his lispy act back to the pathetic country”
I disagree. Let the silly little bugger continue his tour and stay away from parliament. Better for us all that way. Seriously though …. it’s a pathetic state of affairs when a country is better off when the leader is absent.
From the CBC site:
“Trudeau’s speech attracted a crowd similar in size to that for U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May — who spoke before him — though it hardly filled the room”
Well there is the slight possibility the crowd for May just remained for Jr. And no it hardly does fill the room. Maybe he should don boxing togs like the last time he appeared in NY, that might help fill those seats.
Tweet deleted in 10,9,8…
Full seats, empty seats, who cares?…the UN is a farce when it comes to “the well being of humanity” unless your talking about 1% of us and all their crony dictator friends including Islamic savages and of course dope heads like Trudeau, Merkel and of course King Snake himself, the Indonesian illegal immigrant, Barry Soetoro.
The UN is the world’s gateway to hell. Trump needs to get it out of NY, burn the building to the ground and pour 1000 truck loads of salt over it…It’s the only way to make sure.
I like him better in parliament. That way his inadequacies are recorded in Hansard and we get to see what a stumble bum he is when he is on the receiving end of Question Period.
Saaay, you don’t really think this wretch is actually setting policy?
Zoolander is just a figurehead, a face, a name, a front, for the real power brokers.
He is the Maytag Repair Man actor image there to sell a Brand known as the Liberal Party of Canada.
He has the IQ of a turnip.
Empty seats for an Empty Suit, except for the PotatoHead….
Please do not insult turnips. At least they serve a purpose.
Oh.Do turnips come from Chad?
Too funny … the little potatoe ain’t gettin’ his money’s worth …
Congratulations to the CBCer who tweeted Canada’s awkward UN moment …
some do hang in Chad!!
Saw the tete a tete with Bono. Does that mean the romance with Barry is over? Geez, how did Canadians become so stupid?
CBC intern fail to recognize socialist reality and popular support for glorious leader. Please to provide re-education for intern so as to know correct party line for people’s ministry of truth. Twenty-five years’ corrective labour.
Give CBC a little credit. Neither Global or CTV made mention of the “empty seats for the empty suit”. Their reports were the same ol oohing and ahhing. The CTV Calgary anchor actually made note that Trudeau took a shot at Trump without mentioning his name. Well done Tara. A story on Canada’s PM’s speech to the UN and you managed to get in a snark on Trump. That’ll earn you all kinds of kudos from your peers.
He is the Small Potato of Canada.
The sad thing is that Small Potato is addressing our new government. From an independent country to the first post-national country to the first province of the new UN global state.
I exhausted my patience today by listening to the baked Potato and his Media comrades play “question and answer”, what a farce. The questions were soft boiled at best and most likely pre-scripted by Potato’s handlers and the Media dopes. PM Pootato went right into his rehearsed scripted answers first in duh ummm duh ahhhh English and then the exact same answer with the exact same words and phrases but this time in french. When the dope finally got a question that wasn’t pre-scripted and co-ordinated with his Media fanclub he quickly dismissed the questioner and the question and desperately left the podium. What an actor.
I have this compelling urge to vomit whenever I see a picture of the vacuous shell.
I think Trudeau’s act as the ‘cool PM’ is wearing thin with whoever is an adult out there. Sure, they still want selfies but nobody except for the ‘progressive’ sycophants takes JT seriously. They must know by now he’s little more than a sock puppet.
When meaningful business needs to be addressed, they’d tell this: ‘Justin, take your shovel and bucket and go play outside while the grown-ups are talking!’
So do I . Went for dinner with my forty year old “educated” daughter. She thinks he is fantastic..
So much for my 150 Grand investment.
One reason I hope Trump gets elected is that it would p.o. that phoney dip stick. No more invites to White House dinners. Too bad. So sad. Trump will call them on their phoney global warming garbage and he would be an excellent counter to the globalization that our boy Trudeau has so enthusiastically embraced. In fact, Trump is currently Canada’s best hope.
We’ve all heard that stuttering f— talk.
It’s hard to believe that people actually paid to hear this jack-off. Their cash padded his wallet and super-inflated ego.
Why would the UN crowd want to listen to him? That’s not what his financial backers care about anyway.
My father grumbles every time I bring up the Dud Spud in a conversation, but he ends every time with “That’s the way it is. There’s nothing you can do about it.”
It’s that garbage thinking that got Mr. Space for Rent elected in the first place.
Empty hair empty chair
Tomato tomahto
Since Trudeau is the UN’s poster boy, they may have ordered a few of their employees to attend the talk. No one cares what he says, but the optics need to flattering. They were not totally successful with that the time.
Got lots of those folks in my family. most of them living hand to mouth.
Frankly, what surprises me is that there is a butt in any seat. Do some some delegates actually get paid by attendance?
“No more invites to White House dinners.”
I think Trump will invite Zoolander to U.S State dinners.
Trump likes to do “Great Deals” and Zoolander is a sucker who loves to be flattered.
He will hand Trump Canada on a platter just for the flatter and Trump will make Zoolander think he is getting the deal of a lifetime.
One thing I’ll say about Trump, the man has real charisma.
If Trump can woo the Mexican President, Zoolander will be putty.
The Liberal supporters got a lot of mileage out of this a year ago. Apparently, people not showing up to listen to Harper at the UN was irrefutable proof that he had done great damage to Canada’s international reputation. For the record, not many showed up to hear Mr. Dithers speech at the UN either.
No matter what photo ops appear or vacuous comments awe the worshipful we have to keep telling ourselves that Petite Pomme de Terre is only a figurehead and a puppet of the media and we know who else.
I don’t think Trump will be looking to charm Trudeau. He’s a spiteful person that holds grudges. Remember Trudeau during the election last year, displaying his brilliant statesmanship, shooting his mouth off about Trump? I suspect Trump knows very little about Canada and cares about us even less, but once they meet face to face, Trump will recognize the empty vessel he’s talking to. Building a personal relationship with a vacuous figurehead would be pointless.
I’m guessing, once he gets around to acknowledging Canada, he’ll use us like the Mexicans. Exaggeratedly shit all over us, take extreme positions on trade, NATO, the border, whatever. Then, at his convenience, soften his stance, cut some deals and make himself look like the Great Compromiser. The biggest danger for us is if the Lieberals don’t play along. The internationalists are more than willing to sacrifice Canadian interests to undermine the Great Satan. If they won’t cut deals, Trump might decide to use us as an example to the rest of the world of how he deals with ankle biters
Our Dear Leader is simply playing to the home crowd so whether the UN Ambassador for Burkina Faso was there for the speech or not is entirely moot. It’s a photo op so it doesn’t matter if there were any bums in seats at all; the only thing necessary is to capture plenty of images of The Coiffured One expounding at the podium.
We tend to have very delusional and overweening ideas about our importance on the global stage, no more so than in our abiding obsession with the UN. But in fact, we have really have very little to contribute other than lofty, patronizing rhetoric and a smug sense of our own wonderfulness.
If Trump wins the past 8 year love affair for everything Obama Land will end quickly for our reflexively anti-American Canadian media. America will once again return to its normal status as enemy #1. Obama screwed Canada big time on pipelines and nary a word was uttered by our stupid media.
“We tend to have very delusional and overweening ideas about our importance on the global stage, no more so than in our abiding obsession with the UN”
Exactly. A succession of Liberal leaders believe if we kowtow enough to The UN, another Nobel prize might be in the cards. But it is not 1956, it is 60 years on as Jr is fond of pointing out and the world is a vastly different place, than in Pearson’s time.
A correct approach to the UN for Canada would be to staff our delegation with a mid level External Affairs official (not Global whatever) with a modest staff for voting purposes. We should maintain a presence but at a greatly reduced cost. The present body is a dysfunctional, corrupt, useless, and ineffective organization incapable of even managing “peace keeping” operations anywhere.
It is embarrassing to be involved with such an organization and Canada should have as low a profile as possible.
If Trump, by “shitting all over us” makes it that pipelines are built and things start moving again will be a big improvement to the current “Dialogues and consultations” that commie Dopehead Jr. has created for every fricking project on the table.
I think the Honeymoon is well over, unemployment checks are running out and people are starting to be mighty pissed.
We need a Trump up here, a person that will say it as it is. The Alt-Right is rising. The left is dying. PC Breathsoap politicians that talk all the time but say nothing are on their way out. With the freedom of the internet it’s another reality.
Wanna know what Alt-right truly stands for?: (Don’t be fooled by the title BTW)

Here’s the new Liberal theme song, rally song, whatever…. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FqoiRgMpeM

“PC Breathsoap politicians that talk all the time but say nothing are on their way out.”
So this means that Ralph Goodale is finally going to move on?
“pipelines are built and things start moving again” would be the softening his stance and cutting deals phase. Shitting all over us would involve complaining about subsidies or Crown Land or something, lack of NATO commitment, immigration policies, whatever he thinks would give him a perceived negotiating strength. Exaggerating and outright lying are not beneath him.
The Lieberals don’t care about pipelines. They can’t be bothered building them in Canada. They will not expend much effort or political capital on them. Instead of making deals, they’re just going to whine about how mean Trump is and how he’s doing everything wrong. And that’s just Canada/US relations. Trudeau Jr’s internationalist puppetmasters are going to try to outdo Sr’s efforts on distancing us from them on the global stage too
Indeed.
Puppet-Boy serves his purpose.
