Prime Minister Justin Trudeau claimed Tuesday that the defeat of Vice President Kamala Harris to President-elect Donald Trump is an example of women’s rights being “under attack.” Trudeau made the claim despite his own role in attacking women’s rights by removing two female cabinet ministers in his government because they challenged his authority and questioned his ethics. A black female Liberal Member of Parliament has said that Trudeau has treated her with "contempt."
Trudeau told the Equal Voice Foundation — an organization dedicated to improving gender representation in Canadian politics — that women's rights are under attack, the National Post reported.
