Every Now and Then Justin Comes Through


A pleasant surprise from prime minister Justin Trudeau - he pissed off the gangster/president of the Philippines, Rodrigo Duterte. Good one, Justin.


Trudeau said he told Duterte about the need for the rule of law in the Philippines, and also made a friendly offer of support to help the Philippines move forward.

Trudeau said Duterte — whose violent crackdown on drug dealers and drug users by his government’s forces have left thousands dead — was receptive to the comments during what the Canadian prime minister called a very cordial and positive exchange.

Duterte, however, seemed to remember it differently.

“I said, ‘I will not explain. It is a personal and official insult,’” he told a news conference later Tuesday of his discussion with Trudeau. “‘It angers me when you are a foreigner, you do not know what exactly is happening in this country. You don’t even investigate.’”

Relax Rodrigo, settle down. After all you made a new BFF, a guy who likes the cut of your jib, the Mango Mussolini himself.
