All this proves is that a lot of Canadians are really, really stupid. Fighting a stupid and pointless court battle because the public majority has no concept of universal rights makes no sense. What Trudeau did was just - he should have the courage to stick to his guns and ride this out.  A leader who only does what is popular, as opposed to what is right, is not someone worth following. This may be an issue for Conservatives, who have gone out of their way to demonize Muslims. For most Canadians, it will be a blip.
