THE LAUGHABLE PM

 Apparently Prime Minister Justin Trudeau fancies himself the “dean” of the G7, based on his maturity, wisdom and … be quiet back there. This is a serious news story.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is not exactly a grownup even if he has found time to father more children than he can count. And French President Emmanuel Macron is not exactly a grownup even if he and Trudeau found time to pledge to strengthen “security co-operation and strategic dialogue in the Sahel” while “on the margins of the G7.” (No really; it’s what their press release said.)

As well as “making new commitments on gender equality at the Generation Equality Forum, and advancing equality, diversity, inclusion and the fight against all forms of hatred, discrimination and violence; promoting, in both countries and internationally, ambitious objectives for the protection of biodiversity … and for the fight against climate change and for carbon neutrality by 2050 … developing their cultural exchanges and promoting the Francophonie as an expression of cultural diversity and as a space for prosperity and democracy,” blah blah blah.
