OK. I’ll say it: What’s so wrong about laughing at @realDonaldTrump ? Here’s another view of *that* chat, from me, via @TorontoStar : #cdnpoli

Susan Delacourt: Don’t blame Justin Trudeau. It’s about time world leaders made fun of Donald Trump

Jokes about the U.S. president were a totally normal reaction to a bully who breaks all the rules of political behaviour, Susan Delacourt writes.

PM Justin Trudeau of Canada acted so meek and mild during our @G7 meetings only to give a news conference after I left saying that, “US Tariffs were kind of insulting” and he “will not be pushed around.” Very dishonest & weak. Our Tariffs are in response to his of 270% on dairy!

Time to say it. @PierrePoilievre has a likeability problem. New from me in @TorontoStar . #cdnpoli

Susan Delacourt: Pierre Poilievre acts as if there’s power in being unlikeable. It’s not a good look

If Canadians have tired of the current prime minister and are looking for someone new to like, that's not a role the Conservative leader seems willing to play, Susan Delacourt

Many institutions will be changed, maybe even for the better, when the pandemic is over. The Canadian House of Commons, it seems, won’t be one of them, Susan Delacourt writes.
