Justin Trudeau doesn't understand that Canadians are fed up with him

 In today's National Post.

When the cloud dwellers lose touch with the people

This letter appeared in the National Post today.

Dear Mr. Mendicino and Mr. Lametti,

Did you attend the trucker protests? Did you talk to any of the protesters? Did you do anything to engage with them to understand why they were protesting? Did you even care? If you had, you would have seen that they were peaceful. Why did you say they were not peaceful? 

You say the protests were done to "undermine democracy". You know that's not true, right? They were there to practice democracy. Please see the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms for definitions. 

You say that "the leaders have links to ideologically motivated violent extremists." These are very serious allegations you make here Mr. Mendicino and Mr. Lametti. Can you please provide your evidence to all Canadians of these "links to ideologically motivated violent extremists"? If you cannot, you might want to think about withdrawing these very scandalous remarks. 

Canadians would also like to see your "vast terabytes of disinformation" that you speak of. Perhaps you are mixing this up with the vast terabytes of disinformation Canadians receive from Canada's legacy media--who get millions of dollars in taxpayer funded handouts--on the protests?

The tragedy here, is that our government only allows for opinions and values that align with the government's; with the elites; and with the highly paid main stream media types. Any other opinions or values that come from the working man or woman, who were affected by the lockdowns in ways you can't even imagine, are not welcome in your stratosphere up there in the clouds. 

Our Prime Minister said of the truckers:

“The small fringe minority of people who are on their way to Ottawa who are holding unacceptable views that they are expressing do not represent the views of Canadians who have been there for each other, who know of that following the science and stepping up to protect each other is the best way to continue to ensure our freedoms, our rights, our values, as a country”.

Do you share the PM's views that the people in the convoy are a "fringe minority" who hold "unacceptable views" and "do not represent the views of Canadians"? Because if you do, you are very very out of touch with a whole whack of Canadians.

Letter from a Canadian to her Prime Minister

Dear Justin Trudeau,

I know you will never read this email. Or respond to it. Because you ignore people like me who write to you. Maybe if we agreed with you, you might respond. I have no idea. You've ignored every single letter I have ever written to you.

I am really really tired of how you treat some Canadians. Those who you don't agree with.

I am a Canadian. I pay your salary. As do all the other Canadians you don't respect enough to respond to. Like the truckers. Like pro-life people. Maybe there are other Canadians you don't respect too. 

We are not second class citizens. We are real people. With families. With real problems. With rights. 

You say you support the rights of people. But from where I'm sitting, I don't see that. It looks like you do what you want. When you want. When it suits your purpose. 

You could have just talked to the truckers. They just wanted some face time with their prime minister. These are hard working Canadians. They are not violent. You are their prime minister too you know. You talked to the BLM people. You even "took a knee" with them. (I only kneel to God). Do you see the double standard here?

Mr. Trudeau, why don't you respect people you don't agree with? I really really do not understand this.

All that said, I do pray for you. I pray for you every day. I have hope that you can change. You can if you want to. It just takes a little effort. People change all the time.

Sincerely,

Patricia Maloney

Dear Justin Trudeau you don't speak for us and never will

Dear Justin Trudeau,

When you met with Vice President Mike Pence this week you continued your compulsive habit of embarrassing Canadians. From my friend Jonathon Van Maren:

"His [Trudeau's] arrogance was on full display this week when he attempted to shoehorn a discussion on abortion into a meeting with Vice President Mike Pence on NAFTA and issues related to China. Trudeau was concerned about American “backsliding” on the issue and claimed that “Canadians” are also very concerned about it, even though this projection is primarily a figment of his imagination, where everyone constantly agrees with him. 

Trudeau is simply hoping to make abortion an election issue, and thus he pretended that the Vice President is able to address concerns about laws passed by state legislators, when in reality he was virtue-signalling to his base. Their exchange at a post-meeting press conference on Thursday, where Trudeau expressed his opposition to “anti-choice laws” and Pence reaffirmed his commitment to “the right to life,” was cringe-worthy on both a diplomatic and a human level."

And you continued to embarrass us when you said:

"There was a significant amount of concern amongst Canadians on the new anti-choice laws being passed in the American states and highlights the fact that Canadians and the government will always be a strong defender of women's rights and a woman's right to choose."

I am a Canadian. Stop saying you speak for me on abortion. You don't.

And the American pro-life people to whom you refer to, and their pro-life laws, are just that: pro-life. As are all Canadian pro-life people. If you insist on telling us that you speak for us when you do not, at least have the common courtesy and respect to call us what we are: pro-life. Your pro-abortion bias is catching up with you when you follow the dictates of leading Canadian pro-abortion advocate Joyce Arthur in calling us "anti-choice". 

This is rude behaviour and it is tiring. Stop it. 

For the record? Mike Pence is a hero for his and President Trump's support for the right to life. You could learn something from him.

I know you won't be our Prime Minister much longer, but in the meantime start showing some respect for pro-life Canadians. As the Prime Minister of Canada, you owe us at least that.

Sincerely,

Patricia Maloney
