Justin's getting desperate in his bid to drum up support for Canada's seat at the UNSC. He's somehow managed to coral one of the hottest brands in pro sports, the Raptors, into serving as window dressing on his current safari to the Dark Continent.
Having Masai Ujiri tagging along must have seemed like a master stroke to the political operatives behind Justin. Although Justin likes black folks so much he sometimes dresses up like one, Ujiri has serious cred in Africa. This is relatively clever, although ethically vacuous, politicking.
Just why Canada merits a seat on the UN Security Council isn't a discussion we've had. The US is already a permanent member, and in matters of consequence Canada votes with the US virtually 100% of the time. We don't bring anything original or independent to the table, so what would be the point of being there?
Perhaps more insidious, this serves as a Raptors endorsement of Trudeau and the Liberal Party.
That's just wrong!
