Trudeau resigns

Trudeau says he’s disappointed with Canadians.

 

Maybe this is one of the reasons for the difference:

From November 2021
The U.S. is falling to the lowest vaccination rates of the world’s wealthiest democracies.

Canada leads the G7 countries in vaccination rates, with almost three-quarters of its population at least partially vaccinated as of Thursday, according to Our World in Data. France, Italy and Britain follow, with percentages between 70 and 73. Germany’s rate is just ahead of Japan’s, at around 65 percent.

For the moment, the United States retains a slightly larger percentage of fully vaccinated people than Japan, 52.76 percent compared to 50.04 percent, according to Our World in Data, ranking sixth out of the Group of 7 nations, after Britain, Canada, France, Germany, and Italy. But the United States appears all but certain to fall to last place among the Group of 7 nations shortly, given the rapid pace of achieving full vaccinations in Japan and the extremely slow rate in the United States.​

Although the requirements were later dropped, in 2021 Canada also required proof of vaccination and a negative Covid test as conditions of entry to the country.

 

Trudeau To Be Humanely Euthanized | Babylon Bee


OTTAWA — Amid growing public outcry across the country, the Canadian government announced that embattled Prime Minister Justin Trudeau would be humanely euthanized after his resignation.

The announcement revealed that, in accordance with what has become a Canadian tradition, the old, unuseful prime minister would be quietly put out of his misery to prevent him from becoming a burden to his fellow citizens.

"He has lived a full life but has now exceeded his usefulness," said Benjamin Cloutier, a spokesman for the Canadian government's Department of Euthanasia. "We are thankful for Mr. Trudeau's service and have assured him that he will meet his end peacefully and painlessly. It's the Canadian way, eh?"

Trudeau was stoic in a brief statement confirming the end of his life. "We put up a good fight, but what are you going to do?" he said. "We achieved a lot of historic things under our leadership. Most of them were just really, really awful, but historic nonetheless. I am honored to have served as prime minister and bid all Canadians a fond farewell. So long, folks."
