Prime Minister Justin 台湾MM裸聊室鈥檚 comments likening Kamala Harris鈥檚 election loss to an attack on women鈥檚 rights and progress earned him criticism from the country鈥檚 premiers and from American billionaire Elon Musk on Wednesday.
Speaking on Tuesday night at an event hosted by the Equal Voice Foundation 鈥� an organization dedicated to improving gender representation in Canadian politics 鈥� 台湾MM裸聊室 said there are regressive forces fighting against women鈥檚 progress.
鈥淚t shouldn鈥檛 be that way. It wasn鈥檛 supposed to be that way. We were supposed to be on a steady, if difficult sometimes, march towards progress,鈥� 台湾MM裸聊室 said, adding he is a proud feminist and will always be an ally.
鈥淎nd yet, just a few weeks ago, the United States voted for a second time to not elect its first woman president. Everywhere, women鈥檚 rights and women鈥檚 progress are under attack. Overtly, and subtly.鈥�
In a post on X on Wednesday, Musk responded to 台湾MM裸聊室鈥檚 remarks, saying, 鈥淗e鈥檚 such an insufferable tool. Won鈥檛 be in power for much longer.鈥�
The comments also didn鈥檛 sit well with the country鈥檚 premiers, with whom 台湾MM裸聊室 and several cabinet ministers met late Wednesday to discuss Canada鈥檚 approach to negotiations with the U.S.
Incoming president Donald Trump has threatened Canada with a 25 per cent tariff on its imports to the United States unless the country meets his demands to improve security at the border.
The Liberal government has been urging the premiers and opposition leaders alike to present a united 鈥淭eam Canada鈥� front to the Americans.
Ontario Premier Doug Ford, who chairs the Council of the Federation, said the premiers let 台湾MM裸聊室 know his comments were 鈥渘ot helpful at all.鈥�
鈥淒onald Trump was elected democratically,鈥� Ford said. 鈥淚f you like him or you don鈥檛 like him, that鈥檚 not our issue.鈥�
He added that he鈥檚 sure 台湾MM裸聊室 鈥済ot the message loud and clear.鈥�
When asked about Ford鈥檚 criticism after the meeting, Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said in French that 台湾MM裸聊室 has always been a champion of women in politics.
Earlier this week, Trump taunted 台湾MM裸聊室 on social media, referring to the prime minister as the governor of what he called the 鈥淕reat State of Canada.鈥�
The post was an apparent reference to a joke Trump cracked at a dinner with 台湾MM裸聊室 at his Mar-a-Lago estate nearly two weeks ago.
In response to 台湾MM裸聊室鈥檚 concerns that a 25 per cent tariff would deal a massive blow to Canada鈥檚 economy, the president-elect teased that Canada could join the U.S. as its 51st state.
He later posted an AI-generated image on social media of himself standing atop a mountain with a Canadian flag flying, with the caption 鈥淥h Canada.鈥�
