Justin Trudeau's Selfie Diplomacy | 22 Minutes
-
0:00 - 0:03A new poll shows that if an election were
held tomorrow, -
0:03 - 0:05Justin Trudeau would lose.
-
0:05 - 0:08We could very well go from having a ken doll
for Prime Minister, -
0:08 - 0:11to having a Cabbage Patch doll for Prime Minister.
-
0:11 - 0:17Only nine percent of Canadians gave the last
federal budget two thumbs up, with 69% giving it -
0:17 - 0:18one finger.
-
0:19 - 0:22So if Canadian's don't want Justin Trudeau,
who do they want? -
0:22 - 0:26They can't want Jagmeet Singh,
they already have an NDP Prime Minister... -
0:26 - 0:30Justin has been so worried about Jagmeet,
that he stole the NDP's national pharma-care -
0:30 - 0:31plan in the budget.
-
0:31 - 0:33Justin Trudeau is Taylor Swift -
-
0:33 - 0:35his budget
is 'Look What You Made Me Do'; -
0:35 - 0:38and Jagmeet Singh is the guy who sang 'I'm Too Sexy';
-
0:38 - 0:39It's a total rip!
-
0:40 - 0:42It's not just the budget that's hurting the
PM; -
0:42 - 0:4740% of Canadians believe that the Prime Minister's
recent trip had a negative effect on Canada-India -
0:47 - 0:48relations.
-
0:48 - 0:52Here's the first thing that Andrew Scheer
said in question period after the budget dropped: -
0:53 - 0:57There is nothing partisan about this,
it was the Prime Minister's trip that turned -
0:57 - 0:58into a disaster.
-
0:58 - 1:03It was the Prime Minster's office that mishandled
the invitation that went out to a convicted, -
1:03 - 1:04attempted-murderer.
-
1:04 - 1:09- You know you stepped in it when you announce
a five-year multi-billion dollar deficient, -
1:09 - 1:11and the leader of the Conservatives doesn't
even mention spending. -
1:12 - 1:15But why talk about the budget when you have
a picture like this: -
1:15 - 1:20That's Jaspal Atwal, a man convicted for the
attempted murder of an Indian Cabinet Minister. -
1:20 - 1:23A man,
invited by the Liberals to a reception in India. -
1:23 - 1:24Now this isn't really Justin's fault.
-
1:24 - 1:27Look -
When your goal is to take a picture with literally -
1:27 - 1:30every living person: some of them are gonna
be attempted murderers. -
1:32 - 1:34That's just math!
-
1:34 - 1:37The political photo op gone wrong has a long,
proud history. -
1:37 - 1:39For years,
people in positions of power have taken pics -
1:39 - 1:42that are awkward,
controversial, -
1:42 - 1:44or just plain sexy.
-
1:45 - 1:48They've even coined a term for it:
Selfie Diplomacy. -
1:48 - 1:50Unfortunately,
during his trip to India; -
1:50 - 1:54Justin's selfie diplomacy turned into a full-blown
self-fiasco. -
1:54 - 1:56Canadians when less photo ops and more talk!
-
1:57 - 2:00To be fair,
Justin recently took time to explain how he -
2:00 - 2:02plans to fight Donald Trump's steel tariffs.
-
2:03 - 2:07Import more steel,
than the Americans, ex-uh, -
2:08 - 2:11import-*ahem* sorry-
we have a significant trade surplu- -
2:11 - 2:17Uh, the Americans have a significant trade
surplus with us, on steel... -
2:17 - 2:19- On second thought a selfie is fine, Justin!
-
2:20 - 2:23If an election were held today, Justin Trudeau
would lose. -
2:23 - 2:26To win,
he doesn't have to beat Andrew Scheer or Jagmeet -
2:26 - 2:29Singh,
he just has to stop acting as his own official -
2:29 - 2:30opposition.
-
2:30 - 2:32The only person that can defeat the Prime
Minster, -
2:32 - 0:00is Justin Trudeau.
