Yesterday, my lawyers received another threat letter from Justin Trudeau’s elections police. They demanded that I hand over all of my private notes and files relating to my best-selling book, “The Libranos”.
That’s an illegal demand, of course. We have freedom of the press in Canada and privacy laws too. We’re allowed to write books that criticize the prime minister.
This isn’t Iran or China.
So what would you do? Would you give Trudeau your private editorial notes? Your business plans?
Part of me thinks I should be scared. But part of me thinks this whole thing is a stupid joke. I mean, we’re still Canada, right? This must be a joke, right?
So I made a decision. I sent our key document — it’s marked “top secret” — to Trudeau’s police.
