Yeah, the harassment thing was something else. Seems to have stopped at least, but we still don't know who the weirdo is.

And my view on Trudeau is that he's just an airhead. He strikes me as a really superficial person without any real understanding of how the world works. He's been pampered his whole life, and he's your stereotypical liberal who thinks that everybody in Canada is living their best lives, that Canada is the pinnacle of democracy, and nothing better is possible. People like Freeland are much more dangerous because they're actually intelligent, and they know exactly what they're doing.

I'm also hoping that this whole thing ends sooner than later, but like you say, very hard to predict such things. A lot of western leaders staked their whole political careers on this proxy war, and there will be disastrous consequences for them once Ukraine loses. They will go to any length to try and salvage this somehow. Their big problem is that without US this project is dead in the water.
