The attack comes after Trudeau took a knee as part of a crowd gathered on Parliament Hill in June in solidarity with anti-racism demonstrators protesting police killings of Black people.In a statement posted to the RCMP Veterans’ Association website, Favreau wrote, “Mister Prime Minister and all members of Parliament who try to gain political points on the back of the RCMP members should show some discomfort and embarrassment.
James Forrest, the director of communications at the RCMP Veterans’ Association, also said calls to defund the RCMP would not work.
As a Canadian citizen I applaud our prime minister for kneeling in SUPPORT. Thank you Mr. prime minister
Trudeau doesnt know from his ass to his elbow. His ego is fraught with worms.. !
Awe the RCMP got assaulted and doesn’t have a suspect to go after this time or even a fall boy to pin it on. Time to overhaul laws made centuries ago to reflect today’s standards. Also an overhaul in the way police are governed.
str8talkinmeme He did. Hes a traitor
you are a sad excuse for a news source, your style of journalism belongs in the tabloid section at Walmaert!
Damned if he does, damned if he doesn’t..
That's because he did. Every Canadian as well
Bravo, Trudeau! No one should be practicing racism--it's just wrong!
Trudeau doesn't know what to do most of the time anyhow so we shouldn't be at all surprised.
That tells you he doesn't have your backs...
Harry94477529
nobody89761068 BS. But then again it’s the np. Who cares
Not just the RCMP...
Really I'm so proud of him
Trudeau has humiliated this country since he became Prime Minister.
He did...this is a sign of submission...
BlackLivesMatter Nothing humiliating about it.
You mean the RCMP humiliated themselves and are now crying they are getting exposed. RCMP Trudeau Canada cdnpoli canpoli
How is that? To the cop ..if it bothered you then that tells you something. You need to change.
Everything he does is humiliating. Such a shame for him to drag Canada down with himself.
I love the line “social activists have already accused Trudeau of making a hollow gesture.” Lol, wtf kind of journalism is that🤡. That’s legit like saying “someone said this, so it just be true”
I swear, next the post is just going to take people’s random anger tweets and make them in OP-Eds.
Is this seriously an article about how a former police officer FEELS? Is this even newsworthy? At least veil your BS rhetoric with something actually newsworthy.
C’mon stupid story. Digging up this crap from months ago,
The RCMP Veterans Association should pay more attention to what it’s members post & share online rather than making such a blanket comment that are only ment to harm the PM.
Conservatives too cowardly to call out Liberals on amnesty deals to wealthy tax cheat friends
Racist RCMP lives don't matter and never will. Racist Conservative lives don't matter and never will. Only anti racist lives matter and always will.
The RCMP did not accuse the PM of humiliating them. It was some retired right-wing closet fascist. The guys a senile old man who definitely doesn't speak for today's RCMP.
What a ridiculous story line. There must be more important topics , aren’t there?
There’s nothing more than I can’t stand then a man with no sense of moral responsibility to his people. Shame for Canada. Shame on his supporters. TrudeauworstPMever TrudeauCorruption TrudeauMustGo TrudeauDictatorship
Everything he does is for show!!
How can they say thay when he displays such virtue
Any good RCMP officers were already humiliated by the conduct of their peers that results in this level of opposition in the first place. People aren't mad, as well as sick and tired, of the RCMP for no reason. We read the news. We hear the stories. They're not... good...
Trudeau humiliates all of us!
Let’s not forget Ontario presently has an Emergency Order in place prohibiting gathering of 10 or more people. JustinTrudeau is our Prime Minister and should be obeying such orders. He deserves a fine for his actions, not praise
Taking a kneel after Floyd's death - has become a trend just to participate 'in solidarity' sake for some. And for some - they didn't even know the root of why! It's that sad and most of the politicians had no choice but to go with the flow....THE EASY WAY 2 HOODWINK VOTERS
For a photo op.
Whether his ideological opponents, his own party, his country, or himself...you can count on Trudeau always humiliating something/someone!!!
How ? Alt Right wing crazy headline
That’s our leader on his knees.
Canadians elected him not former cops. Enough of this stupid narrative.
Interesting comment from a person who has RCMP protection in childhood and now!
And rightly so. TrudeauworstPMever TrudeauCorruption TrudeauMustGo TrudeauDictatorship
Letsfixit2019 He humiliates all Canadians
*Sigh* - You get what you vote for
That’s humiliating but being a racist organization isn’t?
His security detail must think he is an idiot or worse.
I can feel the RCMP pain, I get humiliated every time JustinTrudeau speaks on behalf of Canadians.
Why are you giving this stupidity a platform?... oh, right—because .
What’s new? He’s been humiliating Canadians for years.
Trudeau will never miss a chance for a photo op even if it defies Health Authority Orders...empty headed celebrity...
Denial, denial, denial! canpoli
Taking a kneel after Floyd's death - has become a trend just to participate 'in solidarity' sake for some. And for some - they didn't even know the root of why! It's that sad and most of the politicians had no choice but to go with the flow....
.JustinTrudeau is a big richard and an embarrassment to Canadians richardmove dontbearichard
One former officer speaks for them all? I don’t think so
Been humiliating all of Canada since elected
Why do you keep reprinting the same article? Not enough likes last time? It’s not going to get better with age ...
Yeah we know - the RCMP is the Saintly concern he Must Always yield to.
I think bad cops did that. And bad cops let them.
Oh no, how does the poor RCMP with a proven and admitted track record of systemic racism will survive... I shall shed one single tear for them, no more, no less
I mean that time when the RCMP took part in ripping away first nation childrens to put them in abusive residential schools...
rockcitymark He humiliates Canada.....Daily canpoli
You think?
RCMP don’t need any help in humiliating their rank ranks.
🤦♂️the RCMP don’t it .was never meant to b a slam of police force In general it was more symbolic of solidarity against racism. I always thought police had thick skin I guess I was wrong ? Get over it. Politicians can never win in this era dammed if they do dammed if they don’t
Follow-up: RCMP as willfully ignorant of their own past as they are of their current actions. I mean, why exactly were the Mounties formed?
He is a week kneed leftist.I guess being Prime Minister doesn't get him the attention he thinks he deserves...sickening...
He should put the blackface on before he kneels
This guy humiliates all Canadians on an almost daily basis
Well, that was nice for a laugh anyways.
🙄 🙄 🙄
RCMP does a fine enough job of humiliating itself. Perhaps if they weren't a racist organization, an anti-racism march wouldn't be 'humiliating' to them.
