Trudeau on defence as party leaders attack record in English election debate

Canada’s federal party leaders were quickly put on their heels in the first moments of the English language debate Thursday, the last face-off before voters go to the polls in theLiberal Leader Justin Trudeau, Conservative Leader Erin O’Toole, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh, Bloc Quebecois Leader Yves-Francois Blanchet and Green Party Leader Annamie Paul each faced questions on their leadership qualities and shortcomings from moderator Shachi Kurl at the Canadian Museum of History in Gatineau, Que.

Paul contended that Trudeau is “not a real feminist,” mentioning former Liberal MPs Jody Wilson-Raybould and Jane Philpott, causing Trudeau to snap back at the Green leader that he “won’t take lessons on caucus management from you.”Trudeau’s ‘feminist’ claims slammed in election debate over military sexual misconduct crisis

Trudeau defends handling of China and 2 Michaels, says can’t be ‘lobbing tomatoes across the Pacific’ Trudeau said despite years of rising emissions under his watch — which he blamed on inheriting a Conservative government six years ago “that didn’t care” — his plan was the most realistic.High stakes for federal party leaders in English debate

“The calls to action are there and we need to follow them,” Singh said, accusing Trudeau of simply calling for the inquiries but not acting on their recommendations.Story continues below advertisement

How can we trust him

Ok Justin has certainly screwed the pooch on a number of issues. SNC Lavalin among them. But I’d still take either the liberals or the NDP over that o’Toole.

Interesting choice for headline. I would have gone with “why was your climate plan rated an F Mr Singh? Why didn’t you put forward a legitimate climate plan?”

Trudeau we cannot trust you with Justice and our Charter of Rights. How can we possibly trust you over something for our children - the climate crisis.

First Nations of North America,Mother Natures ORIGINAL PROTECTORS,knew this Day was coming, Centuries ago but had them GREEDY, CROOKED, LYING etc...Govt's BRAKE Every,& ALL Treaties, Promises, Lies etc..all these Centuries, and now look at Mother Earth, NEVER TRUST the Govt's

Lol how can we trust either of these 🤡

GlobalBC They both need their diapers changed

theJagmeetSingh IS nothing but all talk. He is going to bankrupt Canada and drive investment out of this country faster then Doug Fraud can swallow a Timmy's sandwich. No Thanks Jagmeathead I want to Canada to be a prosperous country NOT a Welfare state.

How can anyone trust Mr.Singh when he has yet to fully denounce the Air India bombers of 1985 as terrorists. He isn’t for all Canadians. Shame on him!

GlobalSaskatoon Ya cause that’s the real issue with this election. 🙄

How can people trust Singh with all his fairy-tale plans that are as unrealistic as him leading a country successfully?

Jagmeet. be truthful. You danced around the question. You received an F by experts on climate control. Trudeau an A. Say it. You should have been ready for that one.

These debates are like a bunch of unruly children sitting around talking over each other and no one listens, it’s pathetic

Missed most of what they were saying as neither would shut up for a minute

GlobalBC Until the elected positions in our government are an unpaid privilege this will continue. None of them can be trusted as long as personal profit is involved.

AM980News That was a waste, just like Justine. Time he goes very far away

Jagmeet really took it to Trudeau and rightfully so

ConsumerSOS I think he has a crush on Trudeau. Christ! He says his name way too much!! It's annoying! I'm voting liberal!

GlobalEdmonton Time to cancel your cable folks the media is totally corrupt. Ignoring natural immunity is criminal and one day they will be held to account.

Opposition leaders have just Trudeau obsession as he saved their legacy supporters lives too during this pandemic. For most of the Canadians our kids & loved ones lives are first priority which I don’t think O’Toole or Jagmeet gave importance. Thx to Trudeau to be saviour for 🇨🇦

Trudeau comes off as very rude and defensive

This was a stupid exchange between both of them. Trudeau looks arrogant, and Singh is just plain combative with zero direction cdnpoli elx44

Who knew a revenue neutral tax wink would accomplish nothing . Our emmissions since 2016 actually increased from 720 megatons to 730 but it makes for a great political talking point . Try how did Liberal govts. fail to keep records of children in their care for a century ? Crime

ConsumerSOS Singh wants O'Toole. Where are theJagmeetSingh costed plans while he is attacking others? Does he have a workable costed plan for anything? Such a child. A dangerous one but, still a child.

GlobalCalgary So basically, Trudeau got A+ plans, which he will fail to implement just like last 6 years and Singh got F grade plans, which won’t solve anything even if implemented properly. So, we are in Sh** either way.

GlobalRegina Try this for a climate action target: it's a billion miles away and you've got a bow and arrow. It's completely out of our reach to do anything about mostly natural CO2 rise (and we might actually need NOT to).

GlobalCalgary Pretty superficial debate. Less babbling and more concrete ideas should have been voiced. Or do they think we are not smart enough to understand figures and facts?

to In modern democracy religion and its symbols are separated from government

globalwinnipeg That about sums up the whole debate. Trudeau still making promises that he’s had 6 years to work on. He’s done and his legacy will be our debt.

GlobalCalgary Worst moderation of a debate ever... same regurgitated questions, same regurgitated replys, never answering the question... and, everyone else is wrong... total waste of time and money.

GlobalBC YES 6 YR IN POWER GRADE IS C-

GlobalLeth Good bye Trudeau!!!!!

The facts don't lie.

Trudeau is done.

770CHQR I quite enjoyed the slap back Trudeau got from the Green Party leader regarding Trudeau claiming to be a feminist.

GlobalBC So easy to make a noise from the wings, knowing you’ll never have to be responsible for anything!!

Remind him pls, he was supporting the liberal minority govt.

Trudeau says he would never turn his backs on Canadians.But I don’t think the ones left behind in Afghanistan would agree, nor those who can’t afford a home or the cost of living,those effected by the forest fires,the pandemic or opioid crisis as he called an unnecessary election

GlobalCalgary There both a god damb embarrassment !

am640 How are you exceeding? Raising taxes?

I don’t believe anything that Singh says really he was just like a 4 year old child.

That's a good one

Global_Montreal What a zoo.

GlobalEdmonton NEVER TRUST A HARPERITE EVER

BC1 Feels like I just wasted two hours of my life! Interruptions. Questions and answers don’t relate. Can hardly wait for At Issue tonight.

Bunch of fucking babies we have as leaders

Mr. Singh promises everything to everyone, which of course is no problem for the NDP leader as much like Trudeau, he doesn’t concern himself with the responsibility of dealing with the cost and he is out of touch w/ reality if he truly believes the rich will pay. Sadly we will😔

When will we talk about the global pandemic ?!

He is on the defensive because everyone up there wants to be PM lmao.

COMMENTARY: Justin Trudeau finds his fire during French language debate, Twitter analysis shows - National | Globalnews.caIpsos’ Political Atlas tracker, which measures sentiment and volume on Twitter, shows Justin Trudeau won Wednesday's French-language debate. Trudeau simply called an early election so that he would no longer have to be accountable to neither Parliament nor Canadians for the next 4 years & in doing so he has shown that he couldn’t care less about volunteers, election staff nor voters safety during the pandemic. Shame! Obviously eveey news source is going to lean this towards Trudeau no matter what the outcome was. When JustinTrudeau won they thought they got the new Jesus!When EmmanuelMacron won in France they also thought he was Jesus &same w most countries & NOW THEY ARE ALL HATED -add in BorisJohnson too! When will ppl realize that NO ONE CAN SAVE U BUT YOURSELF
