Trudeau “came back empty-handed” from Trump meeting: NDP

NDP MP Blake Desjarlais said during question period on Monday that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau “came back empty-handed” after his meeting with U.S. president-elect Donald Trump last weekend.

Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc — who travelled with Trudeau for the meeting — said it was a “productive discussion” with Trump and that the Canadian leader came back “far from empty-handed.”

Meanwhile, Conservative Deputy Leader Melissa Lantsman said that Canada was “staring down the barrel” at 25 per cent tariffs and that a ‘Canada First’ plan was needed to fix the “broken borders” between the neighbouring countries.

Immigration Minister Marc Miller also accused Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre of sitting in his basement “figuring out what rhyme to put up on Twitter” during Trudeau’s meeting with Trump, and characterized Poilievre as not being "serious."

[CanadianlifeOntario]

His belly was full, he got a photo opportunity for the history books, and he travelled and met a celebrity leader of one of the largest powers of the world. He didn’t go for selfless service or Canadians
