Trudeau announces his (eventual) departure; Torontonians say: 'Good riddance!'

After more than two hours of interviewing passers-by, we could not find a single supporter of the departing PM!

Amidst plunging poll numbers and a rumoured emerging internal coup d’état, Justin Trudeau announced on Monday morning that at long last he will indeed be stepping down. Sort of. The plan is that he will resign as Liberal leader but shall remain on as prime minister while Parliament is prorogued (a.k.a., paralyzed) until March 24!

Indeed, talk about the “long goodbye” given that Trudeau shall remain in our lives until the Liberal Party of Canada picks a replacement leader. Those hoping for a snap election are undoubtedly disappointed.

Par for the course, Trudeau was late for his own press conference. He was supposed to address the nation at 10:45 a.m., but instead, took the microphone after 11 a.m. Oh, but never mind…

Incredibly, in his speech, Trudeau patted himself on the back, congratulating himself for fighting for the middle class; fighting against climate change; and showing leadership during the pandemic. Then again, this PM has always had issues when it comes to self-awareness… and speaking the truth.

He even took a parting shot at Conservative Party of Canada leader Pierre Poilievre, saying “Poilievre has a profoundly small vision.”

Talk about projection…

Rebel News took to the streets of downtown Toronto, typically a Liberal stronghold. Gracious! How times have changed! After more than two hours of interviewing passers-by, we could not find a single supporter of the departing PM! Everyone was pleased to see Trudeau exit stage left, including the solitary NDP supporter we came across.

As well, there was also consensus when it came to two key questions: can the Liberals turn it around come election time with a new leader at the helm? (Highly unlikely.)

And: are you better off today than you were 10 years ago? (Hard no — unless your name happens to be Omar Khadr.)

So it is that Trudeau leaves not in a hail of glory but rather limping down a pathway of scandalous shame (from foreign interference and the WE charity affair to the ArriveCan fiasco and blackface… and so many other scandals too numerous to list here.)

And when it comes to saying goodbye, Hogtown’s constituents — at least the ones we interviewed — are unanimous: it’s far less “au revoir”; far more “good riddance!”

Justin Trudeau is gone — but Canadians never voted for his replacement. The Liberal Party has installed unelected banker Mark Carney as Prime Minister. Why should Canadians accept another leader without a mandate? It’s time for a federal election now — not when it’s convenient for the Liberals. Sign the petition and demand that Mark Carney call an election immediately!

Will you sign?

Please help me stop Mark Carney — before it’s too late!

Latest News

Mark Carney wasn’t elected — he was installed by the global elites. And now that he’s in charge, they think they’ve won. But not if we have anything to say about it. While the bought-and-paid-for media slobber over their new golden boy, we’re hitting the streets, digging into his World Economic Forum playbook, and calling out the radical agenda they’re trying to ram down Canada’s throat. This is the fight of our lives — and we’re not backing down. Help us keep our reporters on the ground, our billboard truck on the move, and our message uncensored. Pitch in now if you want to stop Mark Carney before he does irreversible damage.

    Bruce A. , You are so correct. Not only is He devious, but a selfish person. Only cares for himself, His character is one of a lost soul. I guess all socialist’s are this way.

    What a sneaky SOB Trudeau is. He gets people all excited about his resignation but then we realize it won’t be until after March 24th. I’ve also heard that proroguing Parliament has a limited time set on it. So Justin the Turd can’t stretch that out forever. And only God knows how long the leadership contest will take. What a diabolical jerk Trudeau is.
