But I mean, good grief. People who are like self-described centrist who, you know, might feature

0:09.7

regularly on the eye stand with Trudeau hashtag tweeting about, well, you know, I mean, are we really

0:15.0

going to judge this young man who just wanted food in his belly? But I mean, literally just
