My family has been Canadian for more than one hundred years. We have worked closely with Liberal candidates to bring them to high office - including Pierre Trudeau, Jean Pierre Goyer, Warren Allmand, Marlene Jennings, Claude Dauphin, Bill Tetly, Russell Copeman and others.
But Justin Trudeau has betrayed Canadians and I would like to see him out of office as soon as possible. He does not represent Canadians. He bows to the oil companies and I expect he will be kissing Trump's assets in a few days. Watch for Trump-Trudeau selfies.

Justin Trudeau speaks only French at Sherbrooke town hall, despite English questions
By Elysha Enos, CBC News Posted: Jan 17, 2017
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau answered questions ranging from local concerns about public transit to tabling new federal pot legislation at Tuesday night's town hall in Sherbrooke, Que., and he answered them all in French — because, he said, "we're in Quebec."
A woman asked in English what would be done to help Anglo-Quebecers seeking mental health services when those services are only available in French.
"Thank you for your use of both official languages," Trudeau replied in French.
"But we're in a French province so I will answer in French," he answered, as the woman grew visibly annoyed.
"All people who speak one of the two official languages should feel comfortable across the country," he said, in French, while highlighting the federal government's investment in health.
Trudeau spoke exclusively in French, despite a half dozen English questions.
Some in the crowd seemed surprised by the prime minister's decision.

Justin Trudeau has betrayed Canadians. Pierre Elliott Trudeau was a true Canadian. He wanted everyone across Canada to be bilingual. Everyone would be able to speak English and French. People could talk with each other and learn from each other. Canadians could make friends across the country. Pierre Trudeau was a unifier. Bigots in Quebec and the Rest of Canada hated him. Justin has betrayed his father's legacy and the Canadian people. I want to see him out of office as soon as possible. He does not represent Canadians. Apart from being a fop and a bigot, he bows to the oil companies and I expect he will be kissing Trump's assets in a few days. Watch for Trump-Trudeau selfies.
