That's some funny shit you just came out with, when has Trudeau ever given a thought to human life other then his own! How long did the reporter have to wait to get a straight answer from Justine for this story?

Hey JT you don’t see human rights being violated in your own back yard... gee .... must not see them as even human beings anymore....
