Anaida Poilievre, the wife of Canada's Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre, has launched a strong criticism of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau following the resignation of Chrystia Freeland.

Anaida accused Trudeau of failing to take responsibility for his government's shortcomings and claimed he sacrificed Freeland’s position to replace her with a man.

She argued that positions should be filled based on merit, not gender, race, or other factors. However, she accused Trudeau of hypocrisy, stating that a leader who frequently lectures the world on equality should be called out for his actions.

Notably, Trudeau had recently commented on Kamala Harris’ defeat in the U.S. presidential elections, expressing his belief in the importance of equal participation for women in social, economic, and political spheres.

Larger vehicles such as SUVs, pickup trucks, and vans are especially vulnerable due to their higher ground clearance. What you can do to prot
