"It seems an ice age since Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Germany's Angela Merkel were anointed the last defenders of the liberal international order."

So, does that mean Justin is Canada's Angela Merkel, or Angela is Germany's Justin Trudeau?

Trudough.... L'll Potato

Merkel .... Giant Spud

Neither would make a decent Fish&Chips dinner.

Merkel will be gone soon.

Nevertheless, CBC may have a point here. Neither has much respect for their nation's flag.

Odd thing to say about Merkel, being the saviour of democracy, considering she's done as much as any leader could to permanently ruin her own nation's demographics and possibly ensure that one day Germany will be a sharia state.

lol @ a multi-coloured version of the flag being "disrespectful".

seriously what a freaking benign trigger

Merkel throwing the flag away was WAY more disrespectful.

What? Flags aren't just coloured towels, they're Holy Icons!

Too bad there aren't time machines.

We could plop you 3 in one and send you back to D Day after the Canadians had landed.

You could take your picture...



tell them what that flag signified and who that was holding it. Might be fun to see how fast you could run.

Pretty insulting to our troops to say they'd be angry about holding a flag that represents acceptance and freedom for all people. Isn't that what they were over there for? Protecting the right to be free and be able to be themselves?

Guess I missed the part in history where our soliders are raging bigots.
