Supriya Dwivedi, who worked as a senior adviser to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, found the decision mystifying.

If they really wanted to get some insights into how the American right thinks there are other ways to do it (and it’s not hard, given that the American right has no problem in telling us exactly how they think). They certainly should not invite the guy to a closed-doors meeting with the cabinet, that we only find out about when he announces that he can’t attend. The first infuriating thing about this is that they invite him in the first place. The second is that they try to keep it secret from Canadians. Betrayal is perhaps too strong a word, but not by much.
