Looks like he forgot to tell Chrystia Freeland. They did the right thing bu helping this woman but Freeland couldn't leave the woman alone, instead of trying to protect her privacy, they pulled off a show.


As I recently discussed, the Trudeau Liberals were slammed for using Saudi refugee Rahaf Al-Qanun as a political prop in a photo-op:

“Rahaf was fleeing the ruthless Islamist regime in Saudi Arabia, and her life was in danger because the Saudis see renouncing Islam – which Rahaf did – as a ‘crime.’

However, the Trudeau government couldn’t just stop at doing the right thing.



They had to try to benefit from it politically, exploiting the situation by making sure to get a photo-op.

Instead of having Rahaf come to Canada quietly and under the radar (which would be far safer), Chrystia Freeland went to the airport, and walked out with Rahaf, making sure all the cameras were watching.

It’s such a crass moment that even some from CBC criticized it:

“This comes off as… smarmy. ‘Let’s use this traumatized refugee for a photo-op right when she steps off the plane. No, no questions, please, she’s tired.’”

Yet, as pointed out by Mike Lalonde on Twitter, Justin Trudeau once denounced exactly that type of political exploitation:

“Trudeau said posing for pics with refugees is “disgusting.”
Why isn’t it disgusting when a Liberal does it? Using a vulnerable girl as a political prop could put her life in danger. Extremely poor judgement. Canada doesn’t need a hypocritical prime minister like you.”

No. Actually I don't, and it seems your 'source' couldn't be bothered to dig up the quote. Since Trudeau's been keeping refugees front and centre since the Syrian Airlift, I can only imagine they made it up or misinterpreted. Either that or they've been living under a rock.

Can't think of another reason to be shocked, shocked, at a pol mouthing pious platitudes they don't live up to.

I agree that Freeland did not have to step in here as official greeter.

However, Lalonde's take is just spin. Trudeau was criticizing the Harper PMO (in 2015) getting involved in picking and choosing those Syrian refugees who were allowed to enter the country. The Harper PMO was discouraging the Department of Citizenship from accepting Sunni or Shia Muslims and prioritizing Arab Christians. Saying it was about photo-ops and exactly the same misses the point. So Lalonde is spinning this, counting on the probability that his followers are all low-information voters who simply digest what he types without question.

I agree that Freeland's welcoming "ceremony" appeared to be purposefully over-dune, and politically may be interpreted as a gesture of "sticking it to the Saudi government".

They did the right thing accepting her. The photo is pure politics, both sides do it, I'm sure the PC's would have done the same thing

Nonsense, it was important for Freeland to be there to show the douchebag Saudis we are not gonna back down on human rights to some scumbag bone sawing regime that chops up bodies of its citizens in foreign embassies

That Fernando dude and OP as usual caught the bull by the tail. What Trudeau was referring to was that the previous Harper administration were picking and choosing which refugees they wanted photo ops with when there were planeloads of them coming to Canada under his regime. Trudeau on the other hand did not pick and choose when he went to welcome them at the airport. It did not matter if they were Shia, Sunni or Christian refugees. There is quite a subtle difference there, as he personally welcomed all.

If the Government welcomed Malala Yousafai for her courage as she was really fighting for women's rights and had to also pay for it, then this is no different in that context. This lady put her life at risk for also speaking up for women's rights in a very repressive country. Freeland did the absolutely right thing for personally welcoming her.

Photo ops are part of her deal. Trudeau arranges for her to come to Canada in exchange for the Liberals getting to exploit her as much as they want.

Maybe you should come up in the world and learn to use the net, as others have already seen it and commented on it.
Whatever they saw, no one specifically commented on your video tweet here, so that's hardly evidence it works now, or ever did.

If you can't be bothered to support your own point, don't expect me to do the work for you.

I have been away for a long while and have not been participating in the forums. Its amazing to come back and see that nothing has changed. The same guys defending the same ideologies no matter what the reality.

One guys cheering for Canada to dictate another countries policy, but hating the US for its intervention policies. One guy defending the Liberals and JT at every turn but still believing he is non partisan

Too funny.

I can see the videos and the Groper was as cocky as he is today....
I am sure I can see them too, once I go out and find a site that works, (and I note you didn't actually say your vids [plural] were the were the singular "video tweet" the OP linked) but that's not the issue.

If a poster wants to make their point to TERB by having us watch some video, it's for them to provide a TERB-accessible reference or link to it. As an example, if their link only works if you open an account at the site, that's no use at all in 'proving' their point here.

Some right wingers were saying that Canada should allow her to come in while she was still in Thailand. That is precisely what was in the works and she was allowed in. But now the right wingers are trying to use her permit to enter Canada as a "part of the deal for the Liberals to exploit". Can they reveal this "signed deal"? Such fake speculation has no bounds by the right wingers!!
