The most amazing takeaway from this is the American response in any comment section

 

They're simply amazed he apologized and that he did it with legible sentences.

 

How low is the bar in the US these days?

pretty darn low, but we seem to be really trying hard to match them. 

 

Trudeau is taking the hard questions right now tho in a 2nd press conf.

But can he speak French? 

 

Edit:  honest question, I have no idea

He does speak French. Though he speaks it like someone who is resentful he had to learn it for political purposes. :lol:

 

He speaks it in a halting style like he's sometimes searching for words. It doesn't have much flow to it.

libreal leaked a video of him in 2005 , he has every right to to do this

except this might really backfire on Scheer. He seems like he's trying to capitalize on some pretty hurt feelings over racial issues. He's playing with fire.

why are you accusing me of being in denial over the state of the media? 

Was it not your stance that the whole SJW/PC/pandering/anti free speech/neo marxism nonsense was limited largely to a few fringe college kids?

yes, it is coming from there. That doesn't mean I think our media is doing a good job. Not sure how you draw that conclusion.

I'm not sure how you don't realize that all these things are connected....

most of our current media are lazy hacks. In fact, you'd be hard pressed to show that the industry was ever different. They'll pick up whatever story gets the most attention. That doesn't mean they are the drivers of things like campus communism.

They're amateurs. They released it way too far away from the election. You don't release all three within 1 day. You let Trudeau make excuses then drip the rest out for maximum affect.

 

So unless they have a videotape they're holding back of Trudeau in New Delhi in a hotel room with hookers peeing on him they really messed this up.

explain?

Very low... and going lower.  Apparently expecting for standards for teachers to prove they can actually teach is racist or something nowadays.

 

Case in point...

https://www.byroncrawford.com/2010/03/fail-detroits-school-board-president-is-a-functional-illiterate.html

 

The school president of Detroit couldn't pass the English proficiency test and has a GPA of 0.98 during college.

The email sent by the guy:



Good Evening,

If you saw Sunday's Free Press that shown Robert Bobb the emergency financial manager for Detroit Public Schools, move Mark Twain to Boynton which have three times the number seats then students and was one of the reason's he gave for closing school to many empty seats.

Based on the Free Press Map where it shows that the most of children who live in 48217 is near Gleason by the former Mark Twain. Why did Bobb think the larger numbers of our children would cross Fort St. to attend the Boynton school site calling it Mark Twain, make's no sense unless the plan is to destroy the public schools that's remained in our neighborhood. ….. When Bobb moved Mark Twain to Boynton, 48217 lose about 200 hundred students some of the student attended Mark Twain on Gleason came from out side the city of Detroit.

How old are these hookers?

Who said they were the drivers? I said they're all connected.
