Letter to the editor: ‘Time for Justin Trudeau to get in a hot air balloon and fly away’

Trudeau is a failure who has failed and continues to fail to unite Canadians.
Commissioner Paul Rouleau (003)
Commissioner Paul Rouleau speaks during the first day of hearings at the Public Order Emergency Commission inquiry, Thursday, October 13, 2022 in Ottawa.

Justice Rouleau has just delivered 2,000-plus pages of hot air on Justin Trudeau's use and in my humble opinion the abuse of the Emergency Act.

Yes, Rouleau did say that the use of the Emergency Act was justified. But so much hot air and double talk in this decision that I think it is time for Justin Trudeau to get in a hot air balloon and fly away into the wild blue yonder.

Rouleau also said there was a failure of federalism. A failure of federalism is a failure of government and in this case the trail of that failure leads right to the door of the PMO office on Wellington Street in Ottawa.

Yes, Trudeau is a failure who has failed and continues to fail to unite Canadians. Instead of reaching out to a significant number of Canadians he engaged in divisive name calling, he restricted information and misinformed Justice Rouleau at the inquiry.

Pierre Poilievre goes as far as saying that this was an emergency created by Justin Trudeau.

First Reading from the National Post summarized it all: "Inquiry says emergency Act justified (but only because Canada was too broken)" and "Trudeau now says that he is sorry he called truckers a Fringe Minority."

In my humble opinion, saying sorry is not enough. That hot air balloon is patiently waiting.

The patience of many Canadians like myself is wearing thin.
