Trudeau not held in high regard at EU Parliament
...
"You are a disgrace" stated Christine Anderson, German member of the EU Parliament. Anderson accused Trudeau of admiring China's basic dictatorship, and called out the prime minister for trampling on "fundamental rights by criminalizing his own citizens as terrorists just because they dare to stand up to his perverted concept of democracy."
Back in Canada, state-funded CBC News has not reported on the incident. In a statement that went viral online, MEP Mislav Kolakusic of Croatia condemned Trudeau in the worst of terms:
"There are those among us who trample on those fundamental values," a reference to some protesters' controversial encounter with police horses near Parliament Hill.

Speaking of Mr. Trudeau, Kolakusic said "united citizens of the world can stop a regime that wants to destroy the freedom of citizens, either by bombs or harmful pharmaceutical products."

Another MEP, Cristian Terhes of Romania, refused to join a meeting because Trudeau was in attendance. Terhes stated that the Canadian prime minister can't come and "teach democracy lessons to Putin from the European Parliament when you trample with horse hooves your own citizens who are demanding their fundamental rights be respected."
Only one newspaper in Canada — the Toronto Sun — bothered to let people know that their prime minister does not inspire universal respect. Instead, he disgusted those committed to real democracy, not the same soggy simulacrum of democracy that is the norm in such places as the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (i.e., North Korea), the Democratic Republic of Congo, the People's Democratic Republic of Algeria, the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, etc. (And who can forget the name the Soviets bestowed on East Germany? The German Democratic Republic.)

There is much more including Twitter videos of the dressing down. It is interesting that most of the Canadian media ignored the dressing down of their PM. It must be liberal privilege.
