Recently in the canadian news there was a horrific incident involving the Prime Minister (Trudeau) and a crowd of people in parliament with whom he was unable to share space-time. The horrified victim, one Brousseau, was unable to complete the vote as assigned, yet was not subject to any disciplinary action. It is unclear whether this minister will ever be able to return to work as the very presence of the PM might cause them to feel harassed. None-the-less, he has apologized!

My gut tells me that Mulcair planned the whole thing, since he recently was fired as the NDP leader, and appears to show true rancor towards the PM in the aftermath of the incident. Mulcair is on video telling Trudeau he is pathetic, as his friends and the conservative MP who claims they were assaulted attempt to blow the matter out of proportion, in a seemingly scripted debacle.
Upon being brushed or bumped by the prime minister, the MP does not appear to be injured, or even distraught. Restrained jubilation is how I would describe the reaction of those involved, as they vented all of their rancor towards Trudeau in a vitriolic effort to derail his
