For the second time in a row, Canada has failed to secure that temporary seat. Despite millions spent and Trudeau pressing the flesh with questionable world leaders, our bid got 108 votes to Ireland’s 128 and Norway’s 130.
That’s six fewer votes than Stephen Harper got 10 years ago when it took three ballots for Canada to lose.
In 2010, Canada lost primarily for standing up for Canadian principles. This time we lost despite Prime Minister Justin Trudeau throwing those principles out the window as he sought votes.
