We have not heard too much from the ever-pathetic Trudeau PM of Canada. Well, he’s back, telling us that Christmas is over. Apparently, the celebrations of the other ethnic groups is not, just our side, naturally:
“Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau this weekend asked the public to reconsider holiday plans and restrict travel to slow the spread of the resurgent Wuhan coronavirus.
“We all want to have a normal Christmas while, quite frankly, a normal Christmas is right out of the question,” he said.
Trudeau said he is “not looking at bringing in a federal hammer” to enforce travel restrictions at the national level. Instead, he appealed to Canadian provincial governments to come up with their own policies, apparently rebuffing British Columbia Premier John Horgan’s call last week for a “pan-Canadian approach” that would establish a unified national advisory against travel throughout the holiday season.
“I’m asking the federal government to work with us and other provinces to get the message out that if you do not need to travel between jurisdictions, you shouldn’t do that. I’m encouraging the prime minister to take this opportunity with all of us,” Horgan said last Wednesday.
“I think the idea of using the federal Emergencies Act to shut down the borders and guard those inter-provincial borders is not an idea I’m even contemplating right now,” Trudeau said.
Asked at his Friday press conference if he would respond to “calls from mayors and doctors for the federal government to step in and do more, including implementing tougher measures like a temporary lockdown,” Trudeau defended his administration’s pandemic response, saying it has always been focused on helping local and regional authorities make tough decisions while minimizing the economic damage from restrictions and lockdowns:
The best way to get through this with a strong economy is to focus on protecting Canadians, and slowing the spread of this virus. That is the decision we took from the very beginning as a government. That’s why we made the commitment to have each other’s backs, have Canadians backs, and we will, whatever it takes, and as long as it takes.
[…]
We know that this is extremely difficult on Canadians and on businesses, but the position of the federal government from the beginning has been to make the difficult decisions by regional authorities, by provincial authorities, by local public health authorities easier in knowing that businesses that have to close will get strong support from the federal government. That’s the promise we made, and that’s a promise we’re keeping.”
If all that sounds a bit mean, just think of the heavy-handed tactics employed in the world’s most cucked country, not-so-Great Britain, where a so-called second wave, or is it now third, is leading to even more severe restrictions, with the basic same sort of Danisistan house arrest strategies.
