The Emperor's New Clothiers

"CBC has all but shutdown their comment sections. Apparently, no one has any faith in our dear leader."

"Comments are taking over an hour to get approved."
Meanwhile, on the diplomatic front, it appears as though Stephane "Mumbles" Dion is still having trouble with his English... earnestly offering up, you know... "support of many kinds"... just not the kind that involves actual combat.

Regarding Justin Trudeau's decision to withdraw Canadian air-support from the Kurdish Peshmerga (the only really effective opposition to ISIS currently in Syria) Dion trips over his weasel words...
"This is the aim of what we are doing. It's not to withdraw. To the contrary: It's to be more effective."
Stephane... I'm pretty sure the phrase "more effective" doesn't mean what you think it means.

I'm guessing the Kurds would choose "smart bombs" over "smarmy" all day long.

UPDATE: This just in from...

A senior official in Trudeau’s office said Saturday that the attacks have not changed the prime minister’s mind when it comes to ending Canada’s participation in the U.S.-led bombing mission against ISIL.

The official, speaking on background, said the government also still intends to resettle 25,000 Syrian refugees.
What will Justin do if France invokes NATO’s Article 5, which requires all alliance members to come to the defence of any member that is attacked?
