Once More: Justin Loves China's "Basic Dictatorship"

He said it:

"You know, there’s a level of of admiration I actually have for China because their basic dictatorship is allowing them to actually turn their economy around on a dime and say ‘we need to go green fastest . . . we need to start investing in solar.’ I mean there is a flexibility that I know Stephen Harper must dream about of having a dictatorship that he can do everything he wanted that I find quite interesting."

Everyone heard him say it.

Why expect him to be appalled at China's communist dictatorship now?:

That came after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said last week that Canada is concerned about the situation in Hong Kong and called for de-escalation and for China to engage in “constructive talks” with Hong Kong on the matter.

But Canada hasn’t gone as far as to say it will act in any way if the new security bill is imposed. When asked whether Canada would take further action, a spokesperson for Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne directed Global News to the joint statement issued by the four allies.

Because he admires China's methods of controlling the public and grabbing power.

Several cases in point:

By stealth and under the cover of the COVID-19 pandemic, Justin Trudeau is shutting down Parliament, neutering opposition and slapping democracy in the face.

With the support of Jagmeet Singh and the NDP, on Tuesday the Prime Minister pushed through his plan to suspend parliamentary sittings until September.

Scrutiny by politicians of the Liberal government’s $150 billion in emergency funding will be limited to just four hours following a deal to suspend Parliament until September  — a move branded undemocratic on Thursday.

Canada’s budget watchdog as well as democracy advocates said Justin Trudeau had undermined parliamentary accountability by the suspension and contradicted his 2015 campaign promise for open and honest government.

“There’s been no justification from the very beginning for shutting down Parliament completely,” said Duff Conacher, co-founder of Democracy Watch.

The Trudeau government on Wednesday passed a motion with the support of the New Democratic Party to suspend Parliament until September 21. Many observers blasted the deal, saying it was an attempt by the Liberal Party to sidestep scrutiny of the emergency spending it has announced in response to COVID-19.

Rebel News reporter Keean Bexte was let into a Trudeau press conference by security. And, considering a judge had ruled that The Rebel had the right to report on the news just like anyone else, it is of course the democratic right of Canadians to ask questions and report on the PM.

Yet, when PMO stooges saw Bexte at the press conference, the Trudeau RCMP dragged Bexte away, pushing some China-style ‘media management.’
