When Fischer tried to shake Emhoff’s hand at the inauguration, Emhoff said, “Why would you try to shake my hand when you wouldn’t shake my wife’s hand?”

Thoughts on day one of the Trump administration.
This is a man who loves dictators and hates his allies. Canada needs to stay focused.
Things are going to get ugly with Donald Trump and Canadians need to work together to defend democracy and sovereignty.
