      Other experts, however, document that Trudeau reacted contrary to the advice of the RCMP who had been monitoring the FLQ who felt their control did not require the national sledge-hammer approach we got in the War Measures Act's total disregard of Canadians' liberties. gfp (2011-09-30)
  • his Liberals never actually blocked any takeovers
  • it wasn’t the economy, but rather the nation itself on which, Frum asserts, Trudeau “inflicted his greatest harm.”
  • he shamefully failed to understand what the Second World War was all about
  • National Energy Program was a spectacularly bad idea

    Frum's indictment in this article boils down to two familiar charges: 1. Trudeau mishandled the October Crisis in 1970 involving the FLQ, allowed government circumvention of habeus corpus with the War Measures Act and generally inflamed separatism; 2. he mis-managed the economy and left his successors a major deficit problem. However, the article contains no mention of Mr. Trudeau's unremitting attack on Biblical principles and the traditional family such as his: 1. destruction of families by permitting no-fault divorce, 2. laying the groundwork for unrestricted murder of pre-born children via even partial-birth abortions, and 3. setting us on the road to special rights for homosexuals including the legal right to adopt children and engage in same-sex marriage. Oh my! What the secular-humanist, Catholic, Pierre Trudeau, will have to answer to God for is scary!
