The prime minister said — several times — that he has some thinking to do about how things got so ugly and divisive during the election campaign that reduced his majority to a minority. “Many of us regret the tone and the divisiveness and disinformation that were all too present features of this past election campaign,” Trudeau said. On Wednesday, roughly 36 hours after an unfortunately triumphal address in Montreal, the prime minister was talking more about what was lost or missing when the campaign was all over. It’s also worth remembering how that Scheer video was initially circulated — in a Twitter post from veteran Liberal cabinet minister Ralph Goodale. He was the only minister in this Trudeau’s cabinet who also served in Pierre Trudeau’s governments.
