Why would you do that? You only kneel for God

A knee is great, economic empowerment is better. Where is progress on UNDPAD? UndpadPush

While bleating the possibility of COVID-19 infection made it too dangerous for him to return to work in the House of Commons until September, Trudeau has no problem joining a BLM demonstration for a photo op. Our former substitute drama teacher put his acting skills to good use.

Imagine the power it would have, if this was Donald Trump.

FAKE, LIE, Justin Trudeau! You're 0 zero inside! God knows.

Because he's a real man and leader! Also, your fake wife wants him

Wears a mask, but obviously had his hair done.

Mob pleaser! I can't forget your racist acts against blacks. Black face painter! You ain't off the hooks yet pretender

You should show how he looks around to make sure there is a camera pointed at him before this virtue signaling pos takes a knee... The guy is literally destroying canada but all people want to see is how cool and woke he is.. smh sad state of the world we live in

tosser

So handsome.

Wtf you doing? Never knees!

Exactly ❤️🙌🏼

Man I wish I could feel proud about the politicians in my country; or at the very least feel something that isn't hatred and disgust.

Asshat. Just doing it for votes folks

mkmilitarymom Seems Trump supporters get hung up on Trudeau and his black face like they do Obama and Hillary and Pizzagate and Benghazi...blah blah..Trudeau apologized, we forgave him (most did) and he's taking a knee...now Trump on the other hand....racist, gutless coward!

Ridiculous clown

Was the Canadian National Anthem playing?

Anyone who does blackface knew what they were doing I don't need your excuses .

Interesting

Public display of stupidity JustinTrudeau

Did he apologize for wearing BLACKFACE a couple times?

Soooo stupid

Fun fact: Canada has a very strict policy against admitting Americans with criminal records into their country. Meaning George Floyd would have been send back had he tried to visit Canada. Go figure.

Trudeau just can’t stop wearing blackface can he?

Right hand is awfully white.... is he a golfer?

He just cant handle not being in black face.

This was so staged, in the footage you see him look at the camera to make sure its shooting while his cronies push people to the side to make sure they have line of sight for footage, pathetic

He's always been a big supporter

I'm sure Mr. Pretty Mouth is a professional Knee Taker.

Soo much empathy. Of course, he wore black face. He knows.🤡 JustinTrudeau

I have a feeling this douche has a lot of experience being on his knees.

How quickly everyone forgot about his black face

Floyd was a violent felon who nobody should be celbrating .He should have been in prison had texas not just been kept slapping him on wrist. They want to throw book at cop where are those poeple about throwing book at poeple like Floyd 2007 armed home invasion 2009 armed robbery

BillTufts I'm Canadian believe me this guy is on his knees every pride month.

Normally he is in a different position or on both knees for China & the UN.

BillTufts Same prime minister.

BillTufts Trudeau Honors a drug dealer, guilty of assaulting women , accepting bribes, using physical force, breaking ethical (social) laws. Trudeau can relate to him.

BillTufts Makes me want to 🤮

It’s looks like more of a political statement then a good well gesture

Do you plan to show the pig stuff from 2015?

We are proud of our Prime Minister JustinTrudeau🌹🙏👏

🤡🤡🤡🤡

He is a big disgrace from the north.

This is SUBMISSION.

He definitely did brown face...... we ain’t forget

Least of all,he is willing to kneel even though it might be for show, look at Trump , he doesn’t even want to go onto the street, instead he chose to hide in a bunker and that just makes him even more unqualified

This is why nobody wants to live in Canada

Sick.

Trolls will troll and haters will hate it. But this is called “being a leader”.

Was he in blackface These Socialist are all racist! YouAintBlack shootThemInTheLegOrSomething MeTooUnlessItsBiden

blackface

Creepy. Look how fast the left turned subservient.

❤️

Black face hypocrite.

Mass respect for this man. I know they have their issues up there as well. Still yet this is a good person and a good man. Canada should be proud to have him.

CJSPILLER He didn’t show up in his blackface?

What a bitch.

Yea.. this is our PM

What a real leader looks like...

Trudeau is a disgrace. He has done “ blackface “ is that a great, caring leader? Look up his record before you look at one incident and make a broad decision about his leadership. The guy never really held a job before this one and his only claim to fame is his parents.

Was he in blackface?

Seen it.

True LEADER

This is Canada! You can go out and protest but you can't go to work!

Yay, He absolved 500 years of racism in 5 seconds while making himself feel good! GoWhitePrivilege SoWoke

You mean Trudope

Of course we know what this means, JustinTrudeau will never be allowed to play for an NFL team! What a shame! He can really catch, run with & carry the ball! What’s your leader doing today? Resist DictatorTrump BunkerBoyTrump BlackLivesMatter ColinKaepernickwasRIGHT

Luv our PM

Hey orangutan this is what leadership looks like

Soy boy kneels for everything.

Why doesn’t JoeBiden follow suit? Kneel (And make sure it’s on camera.)

This is comedy at its finest! I feel sorry for Canadians. They watch the news and look at the liberals and think this is America. As a black person let me help you guys out, majority of us blacks are not protesting in the streets. So get up and go home.

Which country is controlled by the people? Not US...

I wonder if that fat pig in the White House can even physically bend his knee!

How very Obama of him.... Surprised he's not in blackface

He's French after all. They are great at kneeling

blackface....you remember that you hypocrite

A racist reformed.... God is good

Where is his blackface? Canadian coward!

PM McDreamy. Sigh.

Please let us trade!!!

Not the first time he's been on his knees

CANADA! You are so fortunate to have him!

Leaders take a knee

Pure propaganda. The idiot wore blackface.

This is the same guy that dressed in blackface and even had a cucumber in his pants for added effect.

👍👍👍👏

🤡

Cucktastic!

Cool now stand up to Trump then!

Tbh if trump ever took a knee he probably wouldn’t be able to get back up

ole blackface

When does Trudeau not ‘bend the knee’

Still trying to dig himself out of that black face hole.

CNNPolitics cnnbrk Ah! Justin does not respect the American flag!

Ah, the blackface wearer virtue signals to the black community.

He's a a fraud.

BREAKING NEWS: Guy kneels. Thanks for bringing us the really important news ABC

Say bye bye to any free golf with Unser Führer

lol.... the same people who gave Trump he** for a photo op love this and think it's sincere. What a bunch of d**m hypocrites

Blackface

What a difference

Love you Justin🙌

Thanks JustinTrudeau for your compassion and strong leadership.

Reality:

bow down to the anti-whites .. this kind of weakness makes me want to throw up

What a tampon

Pls Prosecute those Antifa,,,, plz !!!!!

Yeah because jail cells are scarce

WillMcAvoyACN ...and in return they hope anyone who lost an eye to a rubber bullet won't sue...

Wait a minute! Is he a Republican or Communist leaning?! Why stall?! Afraid of the police union?! It is immoral to allow excessive force - chokeholds - neck pinnings - profiling - wow

ABC NEWS IS FAKE NEWS! CHECK THE FACTS.

WillMcAvoyACN Dear police, absolute power corrupts absolutely. You guys are case in point.

Let me just be clear ... these cities that are doing this and worse DESERVE EVERYTHING THEY GET - DomesticTerrorists - you know where to go.

💜🙏

In Ireland if we say; 'Ah yeah, I will look into that'; It means I haven't a notion of doing anything.

GavinNewsom don’t look into it - that is code for nothing will be done. The Mayor of San Diego banned them. Just do it! Make it happen

Look into. Also, I’ve used strangleholds in real life and they are effective very quickly. Because what you’re really doing is cutting off the blood supply to the brain and it incapacitates in well under a minute. It is also super dangerous and shouldn’t be done.

Don't just look into it. Outlaw anything resembling a choke hold; besides the authorization to use deadly force wouldn't involve a choke hold.
