Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was asked on Jan. 17 to share his thoughts on the protest movement that took the country by storm a year ago and how he believes it evolved, but he said the question should instead be asked to Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre.

“I think that’s a better question to ask Mr. Poilievre, he seems a lot closer to the convoy,” Trudeau said during his visit of a Stellantis automotive plant in Windsor.
