Trudeau vows to stand against authoritarianism of Russian, while he’s crushing his own people
February 23, 2022 | Terresa Monroe-Hamilton
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau grandstanded on Tuesday announcing that Russia’s aggression towards Ukraine will be met with “severe consequences” and sanctions, while he continued to invoke the authoritarian Emergencies Act and clamp down on supporters of the “Freedom Convoy.”
Displaying a complete lack of self-awareness, Trudeau blustered over Russia with meaningless threats and toothless sanctions, “Russia’s brazen provocations are a threat to security and peace in the world.”
“Russia’s flagrant disregard for the independence of a sovereign nation is a serious threat to security and stability in the region and around the world,” he said. “Canada and our allies will defend democracy. We are taking these actions today in a stand against authoritarianism.”
Attempting to provide a united government front, but instead appearing more dictatorial, Trudeau was flanked by Canada’s finance, foreign affairs, and defense ministers while he spoke of standing against Russia. He announced that Canada will deploy approximately 460 members of the Canadian Forces to Operation Reassurance in Europe and is pledging to boost support for the NATO Response Force.
“Let us be clear, the invasion has started,” Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly proclaimed according to Politico. “Our response begins today.”
