h/t James Delingpole / Breitbart – Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau just gave a speech in New York about the need to respect and listen to others and bring everyone together, unless those others are climate “deniers” or supporters of female genital mutilation.
Trudeau uses NYU graduation speech to criticize growth in identity politics
Trudeau uses NYU graduation speech to criticize growth in identity politics
‘The leadership we need most today, and in the years to come, is leadership that brings people together’

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s first order of business after descending on Donald Trump’s hometown Wednesday was to enlist thousands of newly minted American university graduates in the fight against a rising tide of intolerance and nationalism around the world.
Officials had billed Trudeau’s three-day trip to New York and Boston as focused on trade and the economic relationship between Canada and the U.S., with looming NAFTA deadlines as a backdrop.
…
Respect people who don’t look or think like you do, Trudeau said. Engage those with whom you may not agree. And take up a leadership role against the aggressive nationalism and identity politics that are making the world a far more complex place to live.
“The leadership we need most today, and in the years to come, is leadership that brings people together,” he said, clad in a graduation gown of his own after receiving an honorary degree — the first world leader to get one from NYU while in office.
“That brings diversity to a common cause. This is the antithesis of the polarization, the aggressive nationalism, the identity politics that have grown so common of late.”
…
Seeking out people with different viewpoints and respecting those who hold different political opinions does not mean those perspectives all have merit, he noted.
He mentioned advocates of female genital mutilation in the same breath as deniers of climate change — people who hold viewpoints that will never be valid, no matter how long they have been expressing those views or how loudly they do so.
He urged graduates to do more than just tolerate other points of view, but to respect and hear what others say in service of a better understanding the world, rather than simply striving to win an argument.

What a brilliant summation of Liberal thinking on climate science. Listen to and respect the scientific views of others, unless those others express views which contradict your prejudices, in which case you are free to compare those others to misogynist child abusers.

He has a need to get a few jabs in as he pushes pipelines.
Canada’s royal family I suppose.
Don’t you just want to pound in that Trudeau baby-face?
My thoughts go more to cattle prod and rectum.
Lock him in a room with his own telecasts. A half hour and he’ll punch his own face (by proxy).
Justin Trudeau is the darling of the NWO globalist elite. He was groomed by his Jesuit NWO father to become the leader of the 2nd largest country in the world and was just biding his time until his moment to ascend, though that’s not admitted for obvious reasons. And AGW is the foundation of the NWO world government, so it’s at the top of his ‘to do’ list.

Liberals are all about tolerance.
Except towards people who disagree with them.
exactly
Or who don’t agree enthusiastically enough.
Coming from the Leader who tried to get FGM taken out of our citizenship guid for new immigrants and refugees!
I thought most liberals already supported FGM because if one does not, it’s anti-Muslim. I have read US people defend the practice. So I’m confused—liberals support FGM so they are climate de niers?
There’s little logic & all kinds of self-contradictions in the liberal/neo-marxist mind. Impossible to make sense of it and useless to try.
Not really. The one thing liberals care about is power: if you assume the ‘will to power’ drives all their decisions, you can predict them pretty well.
Except now liberals like Trudeau have become so disconnected from reality that they’re doing things that will ensure they won’t have power for long. Maybe he’s getting bored of playing dress-up around the world and doesn’t want to win another election.
They consider ideas more important than people, and value intent over integrity.
This clown and his environment minister get mad when we refer to her as Climate Barbie, because of her recorded pull string on the issue and lack of any substance of facts on the issue.
But referring to AGW skeptics to people who engage in the barbaric practice of FGM, is reprehensible!
As painful as it may be, listen to the whole speech. He contradicts himself when he says that you should entertain others views whom you might disagree with, the opposite of his “deniers= FGM” statement.
The stupid, it burns. Deep.
It must also be stated that Trudeau is promoting sharia law, which includes, you guessed it, FGM.
He blatantly lies. Over and over.
People above are saying they cannot wait until the next election, but who do we vote for? The leader of the Conservative party has stated that he is in favour of UN global governance (yikes) and he “believes” in climate change (double yikes). Meet the new boss, same as the old boss?
Canada is in deep doodoo.
True, the Conservatives have many of the same failings. But they held back many of the liberal insanities that Trudeau has pushed through since he was elected. Their biggest failing is their globalism. But all major parties across the West were globalists until Brexit.
Canada desperately needs a Trump to clean up the mess Canada’s Obama is making.
“antithesis of the polarization, the aggressive nationalism, the identity politics that have grown so common of late.”
He’s got a real mixed bag of incompatible ideas here. This is the trouble with the new left. They dont recognize that identity politics is their ugly invention. They dont recognize that proper stewardship of the economy for its citizens is one of the main purposes of a government and this they call aggressive nationalism. They get elected at home and their ‘constituents’ are abroad.
It is ironic that the Canadian PM would use genital mutilation as an example while at the same time talking about the need for leaders that bring people together. If I remember correctly Canada allows for Sharia Law in Muslim communities. Those countries that use genital mutilation are primarily Islamic. The radical Islamists really want to bring the world together under the banner of conservative Islam. They support genital mutilation while at the same time they really don’t give a rat’s back end for AGW.
Why is my comment being held in moderation? I did not use any terminology different from any other commenter. What the hell.
The man is clearly an idiot! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2iFlTHf_nM
Trudeau’s demonstration is masterful: he spends tens of minutes extolling the virtue of respect of others’ opinion just to smash his well constructed image in a few seconds… As if he carefully built the argument that all colors of the rainbow are equally beautiful , deserve respect and consideration, that one might even like a different color than their favorite by looking at it, understanding how it works on various surfaces… but those of course who prefer blue, then those do not deserve any respect and should be dealt with swiftly.
The Obama Syndrome of attacking non-believer citizenry on advocacy-driven policy from the podium using advocacy supplied speeches continues.
Was Linda Sarsour available for comment, she’s the leading exponent of force FGM these days
Prime Midiot Trudeau
I recall Justin saying that Conservatives were wrong and offensive to call FGM “barbaric”, which seems to indicate he supports it!
Ben Shapiro calls him a teenage girl in a mans body. Jordan Peterson says he never had to grow up, so he didn’t. Both analyses seem accurate.
==============================
“these values at the blind forefront of his politics.
But please, please spare us the reign of Trudeau the intellectual scold. Open-mindedness would have to search pretty hard to find a less credible champion.”

=====================================
Poor verbal skills are a major deficit in a leader. In the absence of the ability to speak forcefully and articulately, certain defenses must be called up. In Mr. Trudeau’s case he seeks protection in a handful of stock phrases and tag lines, monotonous strings of platitudes endlessly iterated. On any of his progressive fixations – male feminism, inclusivity, gender, the indigenous file – we have all grown familiar with the litany of pat formulas and ready truisms.
“The budget will balance itself” is one of Trudeau’s classics. So is the charming fillet of fluff when he pledged “to grow the economy from the heart outwards.” Coutts-Hallmark meets Adam Smith. And then on any awkward or fraught social moment – there’s the sturdy standby “that’s not who we are as Canadians.” Very early on he set the pattern with the “because it’s 2015” which became some sort of an answer-all for every progressive urge visited upon the unenlightened.

Funny, I’d compare warmism to an attempt to reenact the Holocaust – except do it right this time and target the entire human race – that whole 90% population reduction thing.
It’s written right there in the gospel.
Rex Murphy has a few things to say about Justin Trudeau, and Canada’s global warming policies.

Trudeau’s desire for global praise comes at the price of Canadian jobs, and Canadian unity
The Trudeau government vastly overestimates and overpraises the power of ‘our example to the world.’ This is quite natural. Every author is the ideal reviewer of his own book

Until th Canadian people’s rise up and rid themselves of the destructive forces that got this wimp into office, little will change.
How to galvanise the public is a problem when the MSM is fraudulent, i.e. Bending information to unbalanced information to a public that are unsure of what is going on and are too busy with their lives – until the proverbial hits the fan!
Bloody corrupt politicians, please excuse my frustration.
That sounds like a threat and similar to Maduro tactics.
In Canada, women are starting to dislikes him. A fake woman in a man’s body.
I would like to point out that you leftists must not value the Guardian particularly as, with this one and other editions I’ve noticed that they are begging for even a CDN dollar donation to help it survive. Please, please donate Invankinsman – we’re all in need of a good laugh once in a while.
I would say it’s proof of his ignorance of the whole issue rather than proof of insanity or evilness or anything like that. I mean it’s a silly statement, but not surprising. He believes that “climate denial” (whatever that means) is a bad thing and only evil people do it, because that’s what media and mainstream scientists keep telling him.
