Les Perreaux ~~ Globe and Mail ~~ July 18, 2019
Justin Trudeau has toughened his stand against the inflammatory rhetoric of Donald Trump after the Prime Minister was criticized for his conciliatory tone in confronting racist comments ... “I think the comments made were hurtful, wrong and completely unacceptable” ... Trudeau’s response came after a Wednesday evening Trump rally where supporters shouted “send her back” when the U.S. President referred to Representative Ilhan Omar. She is one of four Democratic congresswomen Mr. Trump previously said should go back to their countries.

They don’t -- and
aren’t. Internal political warfare in our southern neighbour are none of our
business. Our role is not to meddle in the internal affairs of other nations.
Trudeau seems to be oblivious to the resentments his agendas on human rights
and women’s rights cause in foreign lands. We don’t win friends and allies by
rubbing their noses in their perceived failings.
A leader with a modicum of common sense would keep his views to himself, and allow the Americans to sort out their laundry without extraneous comment.

Trudeau’s words carry no
weight in congress or the presidency. However, he risks alienating people in
the White House he has to work with on trade, NORAD and NATO partnerships, drug
laws, border security and a host of other issues that arise between neighbours.
Trudeau’s comments will not sit well with the Republican minority in Congress when Canada needs all the internal allies she can find when dealing with the US administration.
During Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s tenure, we find ourselves with strained relations with China, India, Myanmar, the Philippines, Russia, Saudi Arabia, the United States and ... our own prairie provinces and indigenous people.

Diplomacy is not a
strength of this government.
Discretion is a cornerstone of diplomacy. We have numerous failings and scandals we have to deal with before we can validly criticize the behaviour of foreigners. We need to correct our own failings to earn the right to comment on world affairs.

We must denounce bigotry and diplomacy be damned.
