With everything that's going on in the US heading into Election Day, you might be forgiven for not noticing what's up in Canada. But this week has been a tumultuous one.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau testified to a Parliamentary hearing this week that a significant number of Canadian MPs and other pooh-bahs — mostly Conservatives — have been compromised by foreign influence. He knows this because he is, well, Prime Minister. He did not name the names. But he could have.
Of course, the Conservatives, who are led by the highly unappealing "Maple MAGA" douchebag Pierre Poilievre, went into umbrage overdrive. Please note, dear reader, that Poilievre would know what the names on the list are, if only he would consent to obtain a security clearance. (He has not, presumably because he suffers from Jared Kushner disease and could not pass the test.)
What's most interesting about Trudeau's testimony to Americans is that he singled out Tucker Carlson as an American media figure completely compromised by the Russians.
"We've recently seen that RT is currently funding bloggers and other YouTube personalities of the right, such as Jordan Peterson," Trudeau said. "Other names that are well known, Tucker Carlson as well, in order to amplify messages that are destabilizing democracies."
America, do you need any further proof that Carlson is a Russian stooge? Trudeau testified to this evidence under oath. Yes, we know that US journalists frequently do not pay much attention to our Neighbors to the North. But in this case, it might be worthwhile. We cats HISS.
