In what way was I obfuscating? It is well publicized that Alexandre Bissonnette was well-known for his far right wing views both on Facebook and in person at Conservative groups at Laval whom he gave up on because they were too moderate. Your post is the first time that I have heard anything about him liking Layton and the NDP - where does that come from and, more importantly, when because his drift to the far right was relatively recent.

As to Trudeau's statement that you quote, I see nothing wrong with what he said about faith - what do you see wrong with it?
