Susan Delacourt: Inquiry showed us just how much Justin Trudeau has learned from battling with Donald Trump and COVID-19

Justin Trudeau’s crises have been anything but ordinary in his seven years as prime minister. It was Donald Trump in his first term, a global pandemic in his second term and then, as if that wasn’t enough, a massive “Freedom Convoy” protest to kick off his third mandate.

What stands out amid the flood of revelations over the past couple of months is how the first two crises, Trump and COVID-19, created the battle scars — and the battle-hardened lessons — Trudeau and his team carried into the convoy confrontation. They were watching as Fox News — not to mention Trump and his allies in the United States — was cheering on the convoy. They were getting worried about how many dollars were pouring in from the U.S. to support the protest and Americans blocking 911 phone lines with a flood of calls.

“We didn’t save NAFTA only to have it undermined,” Freeland said in a text to Flavio Volpe, president of the Automotive Parts Manufacturers’ Association. It is one of the many ironies of this government that it wasn’t COVID-19 that eventually set off the emergency, but the measures being used to contain it. For most of one week in these public hearings, convoy organizers got to vent the rage and frustration that prompted them to paralyze Ottawa. They didn’t hate COVID-19; they hated the masks and vaccinations and politicians forcing pandemic protection on them.

So many members of Trudeau’s team, right up to the prime minister on Friday, talked with barely concealed frustration about the lack of a police plan to grapple with the convoy — frustration that was close to boiling over by Feb. 13, Trudeau testified. There “was not even, in the most generous of characterizations, a plan for how they were going to end the occupation in Ottawa,” the prime minister said.
