Some people have been astonished by dictator Justin Trudeau’s seizure of emergency powers in order to suppress the heroic truckers who are protesting Covid dictatorship. They shouldn’t be. In order to understand Trudeau, we need to look at his background.

According to a persistent rumor, Justin Trudeau is the “love child” of Cuban tyrant and mass murderer Fidel Castro. The Canadian government took this rumor seriously enough to issue a denial, but the denial itself raises some interesting questions. According to Douglas Perry, writing in The Oregonian, “A persistent internet rumor has led Canada’s government to officially deny that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is the love child of the late Cuban dictator Fidel Castro. The Associated Press reported the denial Sunday and added that Cuba has never claimed it and Trudeau’s parents never visited Cuba until several years after Justin Trudeau was born.’”

As Perry pointed out, though, “At the time of the social-media post, Justin Trudeau was being heavily criticized for praising Castro in the wake of the communist tyrant’s death. Pierre Trudeau and Castro had had a friendship in the 1970s and ’80s, and Pierre and Margaret visited Cuba in 1976. . . Margaret Trudeau, nearly three decades younger than her husband, made tabloid headlines in the 1970s for dancing nights away at New York discos such as Studio 54 while her husband was busy with affairs of state in Ottawa. She infamously had dalliances with celebrities such as actors Ryan O’Neal and Jack Nicholson.”

One thing is certain. There’s a strange affinity between the Trudeaus, father and son, and the monster Castro. After Fidel made a beeline to Hell in 2016, Justin, already Prime Minister, issued this statement: “It is with deep sorrow that I learned today of the death of Cuba’s longest serving President.

Fidel Castro was a larger than life leader who served his people for almost half a century. A legendary revolutionary and orator, Mr. Castro made significant improvements to the education and healthcare of his island nation.

While a controversial figure, both Mr. Castro’s supporters and detractors recognized his tremendous dedication and love for the Cuban people who had a deep and lasting affection for “el Comandante”.

I know my father was very proud to call him a friend and I had the opportunity to meet Fidel when my father passed away. It was also a real honour to meet his three sons and his brother President Raúl Castro during my recent visit to Cuba.

On behalf of all Canadians, Sophie and I offer our deepest condolences to the family, friends and many, many supporters of Mr. Castro. We join the people of Cuba today in mourning the loss of this remarkable leader.”

You can imagine what Justin would have said had he been around for the death of Mao.

After Trudeau became Prime Minister, he showed right away that he wanted to be a dictator. As Paul A. Nuttall points out, “With the possible exception of New Zealand’s PM, Jacinda Ardern, Trudeau must be the wokest leader on the planet. Indeed, I actually think that he revels in his own wokeness and enjoys being provocative.

I often hear wokeness being described as just having good manners and not wanting to offend people, and it might have started out that way. But as with everything, it always gets taken too far and ends up being used for more sinister purposes.

Woke is now being deployed by people like Trudeau to alter language, and in some cases, cancel people who have not signed up to the new ideology. But, in the end, it generally just gets on most people’s nerves.

And there can be no doubt that when it comes to world leaders, Trudeau is the commander-in-chief of woke. There are plenty of examples of his silly wokeness, and I’ll give you two examples that made me laugh.

In 2018, Trudeau told a woman not to refer to ‘mankind,’ but instead to use ‘peoplekind,’ because ‘it’s more inclusive.’ He later claimed it was a joke, but the reality is that he got carried away with his own politically correct waffle. And earlier this year, Trudeau could not even bring himself to wish Canadians a happy Easter – no doubt afraid that any reference to the Christian holiday would offend non-Christians and non-believers. Instead he wished everyone a happy ‘long weekend,’ to widespread derision.” See this.

Trudeau doesn’t do much to conceal his aims. If you talk about freedom, that makes you an enemy, according to an official of a “Centre on Hate” that has government backing. “As demonstrations against COVID-19 restrictions continue across Canada, the word freedom is on the lips and placards of many protesters.

Often associated with protests and rallies in the United States, the term has taken hold among protesters who are part of the Freedom Convoy, which rolled into Ottawa in late January and has become entrenched in the city’s downtown.

For many, freedom is a malleable term — one that’s open to interpretation.

That flexibility, in part, has fuelled its growth among certain groups, said Barbara Perry, director of the Centre on Hate, Bias and Extremism at the Oshawa-based Ontario Tech University.

‘It is a term that has resonated…. You can define it and understand it and sort of manipulate it in a way that makes sense to you and is useful to you, depending on your perspective,’ she told Cross Country Checkup. It’s also a term that has thrived among far-right groups, said Perry.”

Trudeau has acted ruthlessly against the heroic truckers to seize dictatorial power. “As expected, Canadian PM Trudeau invoked sweeping emergency police powers Monday in his latest attempt to stamp out dissent from citizens protesting vaccine mandates and other COVID restrictions.

“This is not a peaceful protest,” the Canadian leader told reporters in Ottawa alongside top cabinet officials. “The federal government is stepping in because local police authorities have had difficulty enforcing the law,” he said.

“This is about keeping Canadians safe, protecting people’s jobs and restoring confidence in our institutions.”

Enacting the new never-before-used law gives Trudeau, in effect, martial law control over everything and everyone; and not all of Canada is behind him… Premiers of Alberta, Manitoba, Quebec, and Saskatchewan oppose Trudeau decision to invoke the Emergencies Act on the truckers.

His first act, it appears, was to choke off any funding for the protesters by broadening its anti-money-laundering rules to cover crowdsourcing sites, threatening them with financing ‘terrorism’.

‘We are broadening the scope of Canada’s anti-money laundering and terrorist financing rules so that they cover Crowd Funding Platforms and the payment service providers they use,’ Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland said.

‘This is about following the money. This is about stopping the financing of these illegal blockades.’

Canada authorizes banks and financial institutions to ‘temporarily cease providing financial services where the institution suspects that an account is being used to further the illegal blockades and occupations. . . This new law applies to personal and corporate accounts and covers all forms of transactions including cryptocurrencies:

A bank or other financial service provider will be able to immediately freeze or suspend an account without a court order’”

The “justification” that the tinpot dictator gave for invoking emergency powers was ridiculous: he charged the leader of the truckers’ campaign with “mischief”! “The need for control is a reaction to fear. What does the government of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau fear so much that he invoked the first ever declaration of the Emergency War Measures Act? A group of middle class Canadians who challenged him. That’s it. That’s the sum total of the Trudeau justification.

Need proof? Well, here’s the lead organizer of the Trucker rebellion, Tamara Lich, who triggered the declaration of a national emergency and invocation of the federal Emergency Act. What heinous crime against the state was she charged with? ‘Counseling to Commit the Offense of Mischief’.

Think about it. . . The Canadian Parliament is currently debating whether or not the members within government will support the use of the Emergency Act.

The members of Parliament are spending hours waxing philosophically, with tremendous seriousness, about the need to support the same declaration that is used when Canada would decide to go to war with another country. And they are doing this because blue collar workers have infiltrated the capital city with a demand to remove COVID mandates.

The crimes against the truckers are so serious, they require the invocation of the most massive weapon that can be deployed to remove the constitutional freedoms of Canadian citizens, in an effort to protect them from grave and serious harm stemming from…

…. people charged with “MISCHIEF”

And in this fashion, true to his communist roots, dictator Trudeau has responded to a peaceful protest with an unprecedented grasp for power. (For more from the author of “Our Mortal Enemy Trudeau” please click HERE)
