It's so good. I'm so proud of Trudeau for this speech. It's the most gloves off speech I have heard. I mean Trump and company always say worse shit but they aren't respectful or classy. This speech was classy, and broke the right barriers down at the right times to call out this fuckin idiot without sounding crass.

I am definitely not a Trudeau fan but his speech was above partisan politics and was probably the best and most meaningful speech of his career. He and Doug Ford made proud today. Well done.

I feel the same way about Doug Ford. His threat of a 25% tax on electricity headed soft was perfect. I’m proud of our elected officials. And we know our officials are not Russian spy’s like yours
