Whenever Trudeau speaks off the cuff I am reminded of just how empty he truly is. Everything he professes to stand for is spoon fed him in sound bites crafted by party spinners
I managed to read the entire thread that resulted from your famous tweet this week. I'm sorry you continually experience this, I don't even know what to call it, um reaction. It's like you said, people really didn't understand your use of the word expect, even though it is the first definition of the word. I read your tweet and thought, yes of course Freeland should expect this. It's like you and Sandy have said many times, twitter and social media is not a good place for discourse. Anyway, that's a long way of saying, I'm with you and I know many others are too ♥️
The trend has been about blame and insult on all sides. We need more focus on solutions. The core problem is inequality and a musical chairs job market. In 1944 FDR pushed a Bill of Economic Rights - living wage jobs, housing, education, health, ... before he died, ML King also moved in that direction. In the book The Inner Level (by the authors who wrote The Spirit Level) economic rights were also important.
When Singh was verbally accosted in Peterborough, I engaged in a conversation with a so-called freedom protestor and discovered that part of his anger was the broken promise about electoral reform. Ironically some of the right-wing is angry at the left-wingers whom they scapegoat and blame for the intransigence of other so-called centrist right-wingers like Trudeau who pretends to be progressive.
Therein lies a huge problem Trudeau and the Liberals have successfully framed themselves as left of centre thus their failures are seen as failures of the left
