While it's true that Canadians have FAR more media literacy than their shit-for-brains neighbors, you can't forget how many people got fleeced by Rebel Media and its subsidiaries.

Putin propaganda like "Canadian MPs clapped for a Nazi," which definitely didn't happen.

He "apologised" for Canadians being embarrassed towards others. Not for his own and his office's own fuck up to anyone once you listen to want he said. I watched that exact same Press conference, not once did he actually personally apologise. BBC is letting the truth slide a bit, between the lines.

Why? The Speaker office "Hosts" guests when at Parliament, the invites themselves in this context are done by the Office of the Prime Minister. Trudeau is leveraging people's ignorance on protocol to weasel out. He does this a lot and usually gets away with it.

Many people may not know, but it is the PM Office's that does the vetting for ALL guests of this type to Parliament, his public relations including the public messaging that includes other Heads of state, Zelinsky was there too. They are just throwing the Speaker under the bus, because Trudeau never admits direct wrong doing.

One would have assume that he or Zelinsky would have known what side that Nazi would have fought on if he "fought," against Russia in WW2. You know, an Ally to the Allies in WW2 at this point.

Says Trudeau, the guy whose Office of the PM allowed an ex-SS Nazi, due to 0 due diligence to get an award and a standing ovation in Canadian Parliament, on CPAC, which is National TV. Then Trudeau threw the Speaker of the House who just read the Nazi's name under the bus and forced him to Resign. Then this guy went and blamed his fuck up on "Russia propaganda." How? Why?

Cherry on top, Trudeau never personally apologized or admitted to any mistake.
