MONTREAL — On Monday, the one-year anniversary of the Quebec City mosque attack that killed six worshippers, the province’s largest labour federation posted a simple message of commemoration on its Facebook page. The Muslim victims had got what they deserved, one commenter wrote. Conservative MP Pierre Paul-Hus, who represents a Quebec City riding, said the remarks were disrespectful and unbecoming of a prime minister. Fellow Quebec City Conservative MP Gérard Deltell accused Trudeau of playing politics. There had also been a backlash from the mother of a Quebec City woman whose daughter was among six Quebecers killed in 2016 by Islamist jihadis in Burkina Faso.
