Well... the Canadian media did spent an inordinate amount of time trying to prove the Trudeau was not the love child of a self-proclaimed Marxist, which was quite strange as it makes absolutely no difference who his farther is.
I'm not sure that it was the media that did that. I suspect that it was the alt-right media ("alt" being their preferred pronoun instead of the more accurate "extreme").
And...who is father is only matters to the right. No one else gives a shit about what other people are doing in the privacy of their own bedrooms.
Global News, National Post to name a couple.
I wouldn't exactly call those outlets left leaning, but alt-right?
And that earlier commenter who was overly concerned about who his father was, making sure we knew he was the one that wasn't a Marxist, as if that matters. Crazies to be found everywhere, I suppose.
This seems really important to you. It isn't to me.
