 Yeah, I saw an interview with a politician there (sorry, I'm really not up on Canadian politics, so I don't remember his name or title) from the Opposition Party.  He was expressing his displeasure at the Canadian PM and his staff's actions/comments.
Apparently, the PM announced his retirement.  Therefore, he's obviously not concerned about political backlash, so he's saying/doing whatever he wants.  It seems as though most Canadians are in disagreement.  Except possibly Quebec, but they don't really count anyway.
