In Thrall to Ersatz Virtue

Prime minister Justin Trudeau, left and India’s PM Narendra Modi

A Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian.

And there are some tedious addictions for which

no cure is possible. Sanctimonious virtue-

signalling a case in point to which many in

the country can attest of a prime minister who

is totally committed to proving himself a just

man of peace, upholder of human rights of all

descriptions. Details such as citizenship given to

immigrants bringing with them the baggage of

past criminality, terrorism and hatred of others

notwithstanding, in Canada one can practise

all of the above with no obvious constraints. In

Canada incriminating indoctrination to violence

meted out to foreign countries goes unnoticed

by 'authorities' even when threats of violence

circulating within the country become lethal. In

courting ethnic/ideological voting blocs the

nation's liberal-progressive leadership pledges

its support even among the indiscreet criminal

class guilty of waging divisive tactics among

their opponents in reflection of a prime minister

whose classic modus operandi paves the way.
