‘The Tyrant Authoritarian to the North … is finally being shown the door,’ ‘SNL’ alum tweeted
As a defiant Justin Trudeau continues to walk towards what can only be described as his political annihilation, his biggest critics are cheering the imminent end of his nine-year tenure as Canada’s prime minister.
Stateside, the wounded Liberal Leader has been mocked regularly by president-elect Donald Trump. After he called himself a “proud feminist” and took a swipe at Americans for not electing Kamala Harris as the country’s 47th president, Fox News’ Lisa Kennedy Montgomery called him a “soy boy.”
Billionaire Tesla CEO Elon Musk has referred to Trudeau an “an insufferable tool.”
On Wednesday, Musk said Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre “seems great” after Canadian author and professor Gad Saad tweeted, “I had forgotten what it was like to have a Canadian leader with a brain.”
When billionaire hedge-fund CEO Bill Ackman declared that “Pierre Poilievre is extremely impressive. He should be Canada’s next leader. The sooner the better,” Musk responded with the 100% emoji.
This week, the Saturday Night Live alum shared a video of Poilievre‘s impassioned speech to the House of Commons on Monday.
“When I travel across this country, I consistently meet two types of people. Those who are a little better off and tell me that … if I don’t win, they will leave the country,” Poilievre says. “They are very numerous. I don’t worry about them as much. You know who I worry about? The ones who can’t leave. The ones who tell me, I don’t know what the hell I’m going to do.”
Since it was posted, the clip has generated over 1.5 million views on X. Schneider shared the clip with his two million followers and used Poilievre’s damning assessment of Trudeau’s leadership to bid the prime minister a fiery goodbye.
“The Tyrant Authoritarian to the North, @JustinTrudeau, who called his own peaceful protesting citizens ‘Terrorists’ and froze their bank accounts and who shamed and forced Canadians to take an experimental drug against their will, is finally being shown the door,” Schneider wrote. “Good riddance!”
Schneider then posted a follow-up tweet that generated over 12,000 likes in which he tagged Poilievre and urged the Albertan to “Make Canada Great Again!”
Last year, the Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo star cancelled his Canadian vacation plans after Trudeau’s Liberals led a parliamentary tribute to a Nazi in the House of Commons.
“I cancelled my trip to Canada,” Schneider, whose father is Jewish, wrote on X. “Trudeau’s tyranny against peaceful trucker protesters seems insignificant (compared) to this despicable and outrageous act of honouring one of ADOLF HITLER’S NAZI SS Soldiers by the Canadian Parliament. No words …”
This summer, in an interview on the Free the People podcast, Schneider shared his hope that Trudeau’s “days are numbered.”
“I mean, Canada kind of took a turn that no one saw coming,” Schneider said, “I mean, unless they really listened to Trudeau before. His favourite country is China. ‘And you know who gives a lot of good ideas? China.’ He just said that, and he still got elected.”
Schneider then went on to lambaste Trudeau’s response to the 2022 Freedom Convoy, in which a group of concerned truckers protested against requirements that they take mandatory COVID-19 vaccines.
“What happened to the truckers was so obscene,” Schneider said. “I have very good friends in Canada. And I remember one of them said, ‘Yeah, but they were honking horns.’ Yeah, but it was for freedom. And the fight for freedom is … going to include some noise.”
Back in June, Schneider was given the hook in Saskatchewan following a comedy set that included jokes aimed at Trudeau and material that was deemed “transphobic, misogynistic and anti-vax.”
“The Canadian dollar is in freefall (because of) Justin Trudeau and his policies,” O’Leary said this week. “He’s been successful as a prime minister and he did it all without any executional skills. Now, the Canadian people pay the price and it’s just horrific what happened this country. It’s an unbelievable mess.”
As Trudeau faces a growing chorus of MPs who are demanding he step down, the prime minister is said to be taking some time to “reflect” on his future.
