Here’s the Trudeau interaction with an anti-vax protestor at the Ukrainian vigil in Toronto. He really snapped back at the individual who was shouting at him for stealing freedoms.

1. Snapping is good at times. Good for Trudeau!

2. That was no snap. It was full control of determined defense of true freedom, not antivax freedumb

Anti-vaxxers do not have the freedom to get sick and infect other people with deadly debilitating respiratory illnesses as a result of their selfishness, even if it is selfishness over their rights. Rights are shared, not owned.

Nor do they have the right to disrupt an event. Sure, picket the entrances, but they do not have the right to interfere.

5. Ooooh, GOOD one, Bernardo!

No, I take that back. Not good.

Fucking GREAT! And as simple as all-get-out!

“Rights are shared, not owned.”

DAAAAAAAAAAAYUM! Quote of the YEAR! Should be on our coins, right along with ”E Pluribus Unum”!

7. Wow, you are very kind and I feel honored. . . . nt

8. I did a search and I think it is an original of mine.

Anyway, I posted a thread in General Discussion asking people what they think of the concept.

6. I'm going to remember this excellent comment.

Well said.

3. Bravo Justin!

In Canada we have 3 main parties. Trudeau's Liberals are like the more conservative Democrats. The Sinema type that support large corporate interests, but are socially liberal as well. That's why I vote New Democratic Party, the progressive choice to the left of them.

So I'm not a big Trudeau fan, but he's much better than the alternative Conservatives who are turning more and more into a MAGAT leaning party.

But I am sickened by the vitriol that our PM gets every time he goes out in public. People screaming that he's a pedofile. A dictator. People so riled up by conspiracy theories made up by right wing content they get on Facebook.

In years past, idiots like this would be dismissed as loons. But now a days, they have support from a large minority. So many in both our countries that have been so brainwashed with fear of any government that is even slightly to the left of the most conservative party in the country. And even that's not fascist enough for some. Disgusting.

4. I couldn't catch what the protester said-- Can somebody help me out?

9. According to the article they said, F**k Trudeau" and accused him of stealing their freedom by

pushing vaccination.
