Justin Trudeau and Family Members

Burkina Faso: A husband of one of the deceased went so far as to hang up the phone on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau when he called the widower to express his condolences on behalf of Canada, according to The Chronicle Herald. One bereaved relative – who lost four family members in the Burkina Faso attack – expressed her shame over the fact that Canada was going to pull out of the bombing campaign against Daesh in Iraq and Syria. The first thing many of the victim grieving family members did was to publicly denounce the Liberal government for being too soft on terrorism. It is easily understood that shocked and grieving family want to lash out at somebody, anybody to offset their loss. Husband of Burkina Faso victim says hanging up on Justin Trudeau 'felt good'Trudeau defends Canadian government response to Burkina Faso attack Burials begin for Burkina Faso nationals killed by jihadists The 15 January attack in Ouagadougou that left a total of 29 people dead was carried out by Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb . Yes, they are a nasty little bunch of Islamic extremists, waging their Jihad in the Saharan and sub-Saharan region of Africa. However it is a mistake on the part of the media to even pretend that these emotional outbursts should give any gravitas to the shaping of Canada foreign policy. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
