Young Canadian Jess Kampen writes on Trudeau ..

"8 months ago, this photo was taken. If you asked me, I was all about it. You were there to show us you gave a shit about pipelines, steel tariffs, and to make us feel like the western part of our country - the country you're in charge of - was important enough for you to fight for.
Gen X warned us. "I wonder if he'll be like his father." The elder millennials questioned it. They were old enough to kind of know what happened with the Trudeau before you, but not well enough that they could put their finger on what it was.
You got us good, I'll admit. You put women and people of color in your cabinet, making minorities more visible to make yourself "more visible". You promised the millennial youth that you'd make a difference. That you'd legalize pot (which you did), you told us you were pro-pipeline, pro-oil sands, pro-oil patch. Everything a large majority of us built our lives on. L3R started to go into the ground, but Energy East was terminated. All because Montreal didnt want the pipeline to go through their city...which already has HOW many pipelines buried underground? Fishy, but okay. You never pushed them to reconsider either... that should have been the first flag. But you covered that up by buying Trans Mountain, and making that your big "good guy Trudeau" story. "Look how great I am, I bought this pipeline as The Government" so you could all keep working the big money jobs!"
What you didnt expect, was things started to change. Alberta was getting angrier. Saskatchewan started to get angry. You offered no support from the federal government as job losses increased. Yet, you visited and held an invitation-only town halls, to "listen" to the people you continue to screw over. One of my union brothers was there, by the way, and he wiped the floor with you. A convoy traveled across the country, from Alberta to Ontario, gathering people and making noise. Listen to us, hear us, see what you're doing to us. You continue to look the other way.
You chose to protect a company in Quebec, that is facing charges of corruption, bribery, fraud and looking at criminal prosecution. You chose to hide things, and yet you were shocked when it came to light. Surprised when people decided not to be quiet. Amazed that she would come forward and speak against you, and what went down behind closed doors with SNC. I cannot wait to see what gets aired in the press conference in... roughly 5 hours.
We gave you a majority government. We gave you unbridled power to do as you please without being checked by opposition. We gave you the power to ignore us and do what you want. Like father, like son - you chose to protect a province that doesnt really have much in terms of revenue for the country, while the provinces that keep you afloat are being bled dry. You actively choose to turn a blind eye to what's going on, while you sit on your chair, in your private meetings, trying to figure out a way to spin this too make yourself look good.
Times up, Justin. It's time for you to fess up, and step down as Prime Minister of Canada."
