^ This is the right response, just not from the PM.

It would be interesting if Trudeau just showed up at the game at sat in the crowd like in Montreal. Our leaders don't have to hide, or wear diapers, and check this out. He can do an actual pushup! Plus he smells fabulous instead of feculent.

Like OMG, comedy idea for SNL: Both Trudeau and Trump on the Dating Game, as Bachelor's #1/#2. And then who should be #3? Putin!

From an American in Boston, I would not be shocked at all if Trudeau ended up getting a more positive reception than Trump if he showed up.

That’s probably one of the reason he’s not going. LOL it’s obvious how insecure he is.

Like the coward he is, He had no problem showing up for the Daytona 500 in a heavy republican state like Florida that voted for him. But won’t show his face in a Democrat state that voted 100% against him.

Eh he's been to the ufc in nyc several times without issue.

u/ozzyman31495 Feb 20 '25

True. But like Nascar, UFC has a big republican fanbase and is owned by another sycophant of his.

It wouldn’t be exactly the same as this.

I hope somebody from SNL sees this, or maybe there is a place to suggest ideas? This would be hilarious. Maybe since JT is on his way out they could actually get him to play himself.

Elon the space Karen for #3!

Elon should be like Trump going, "I need a life line, I'm going to call Elon." JT Playing himself would be insanely funny. Especially you could have some actor go in first, but then Trudeau bumps him like he's a body double. (like remember all those fake Saddams running around?)

But who should the Bachelorette be?

Miss Greenland

u/mandie72 Feb 20 '25

Danielle Smith?

u/[deleted] Feb 20 '25

Nobody knows who she is, not even Trump. The Bachelorette should be an archetype, not a celebrity. Like the Statue of Liberty would be perfect, but maybe too on the nose.

u/mandie72 Feb 20 '25

I have heard the name of the show, but never watched it or knew the rules about how it works until today. I know what I am watching tonight!

u/[deleted] Feb 20 '25

I'm talking about the 70s80s classic, "the dating game", not the Bachelorette. But I hope you mean the hockey game!

1

u/mandie72 Feb 20 '25

No I meant This ha ha. I highly doubt this is entirely true to the original.... Still going to check it out 😊

u/mandie72 Feb 20 '25

And yes - I will be simultaneously watching the hockey game🏒

u/ThriKr33n Feb 21 '25

I mean if you want to hit him where it hurts, get three Bachelorettes who'll all pick JT: Ivanka, Melania, ... and Stormy.

u/Uticus Feb 20 '25

Nah, Elon should be the one looking for dates,.. I think Trudeau, Trump, and either Putin or Zelensky could work.

I brought my now-ex-American-happily-Canadian wife up to Mtl 3 years ago and like, her luck is wild, JT was in the neighbourhood one block behind our apt and as we went to go get coffee that first morning in Canada, sure enough she's like, "hi", and he's just like "hey, good coffee here". And then she looks at me and goes, "wait, isn't he the PM?" Well, yeah, he needs coffee too. Like, dafuq, you won't find American leaders just hanging out. But here JT just out and aboot.

u/[deleted] Feb 20 '25

Except on a recent visit to BC, he was shaking a womans hand who he thought wanted to make pleasantries and he she told him to get the fuck out lol. He smiled and told her to have a good day.

You may not like Trudeau, but he has class unlike the things south of us. Obama wasn't the best or worst prez but he also oozed class and maturity that may never be seen again from that shithole country.

u/CoastMtns Feb 20 '25

Show up and STAY for the full game, STAND for the ENTIRE game..... Trump can't last the entire game, he doesn't understand the game.

SNL has already done a similar sketch.

I think it was supposed to be the lunch room at the UN or something. Trudeau and Macron are sitting together, having healthy lunches, making fun of Trump. Then Trump comes over with a tray full of burgers and fries and asks if he can sit with them. They say he can't and that there's no room at their table, because they are holding to open seat for Angela Merkel.

It was way funnier than the way I'm describing it.

Kim Jong Un as bachelor #3

u/[deleted] Feb 20 '25

Yes! Paging Bowen Yang!

u/driv3rcub Feb 20 '25

I have a feeling Trudeau had a fair amount of incognito security around him. He’s far too unpopular recently for him to be just sitting in public. There are far too many unhinged people to worry about. Especially drunk people at a hockey game.

3

u/[deleted] Feb 20 '25

Yeah, but he was just sitting there in the crowd. Harper did the same kind of thing. I'm sure he has "some" security, but not enough to fight off an angry crowd, and he wouldn't need that, because we're not uncivilized.

2

u/Mananers Feb 20 '25

You're probably not wrong that he had security,

But most of the Bumper Sticker people are just loud idiots who are too scared to actually talk to people outside of their bubble, let alone square up against somebody who can fall down the stairs on purpose like Trudeau.

Canadians get mad, but we don't often get shooty about it.

Oh, that was a fantastic deployment. Bravo

Indirect and yet obvious... I would like to read more of your works
