A video showcasing Justin Trudeau getting told off by a Canadian skier has gone viral.
The video shows the vacationing Prime Minister getting confronted by a woman as he was heading to his car with his kids.
“Mr. Prime Minister, please get the F*** out of B.C.,” she tells him, to which Trudeau responds, “Ha ha, have a wonderful day, ma’am.”
“Yeah, you suck,” she replies.
Public reaction to their interaction is naturally mixed, with some stating that the Prime Minister should be left alone when he’s with his kids, while others are defending her freedom to express her thoughts to public servants in public.
Trudeau has not fielded questions from reporters for over one week, and not since his former Finance Minister, Chrystia Freeland, quit cabinet and threw him under the bus.
There’s widespread speculation that Trudeau will prorogue parliament shortly. Prorogation would involve ending the current session of Parliament, giving Trudeau power to avoid immediate confidence votes that could lead to an election.
The Conservative Party in Canada announced plans on Thursday to force a non-confidence vote against the governing Liberals almost immediately after the House returns in late January.
About 20 Trudeau Liberal MPs have called on their leader to step down. The Prime Minister is reportedly “reflecting” on whether or not to resign amid party turmoil, with ministers jumping ship left and right.
