I must say I do like Margaret Trudeau, she's such a likable soul, which makes it understandable why she had such a difficult time fitting into the world of politics, too honest and lovely by far!
GLAD i FOUND this help understand what may be wrong with justin
The Jesuit comment?
Exactly what l thought!! Also that she was a freedom-loving woman who wanted that for her children!!! I actually really like her!
exactly!
@@dsoule4902 🍁🕊🦫🙏🏼🦫🕊🍁
I believe Pierre studied with Jesuit priests growing up .
He was an extremely devoted catholic .🇨🇦
@@shanny4306 The Jesuits were the intelectuals, most prepared of the Catholic Church, thus they founded many schools and Universities. The Church was infiltrated by masons through their order. See the messages of the Lady of Good Success in the 1600's.
Margaret Kemper for those who care. The name Trudeau makes her money.
Now learning more about her and watching her interviews, especially her past behavior- instead of loathing the current prime minister for his weakness, impotence, divisive and hateful rhetoric- it makes me truly sad for him
@@gemmafalconer9724 Exactly where I’m at. He has had to deal with a lot, but he’s so full of it too. One can always take a break and sort themselves out. Playing out your family issues on the nation or the world but them again, hasn’t that been the case wit all other tyrants?
@@girumzemichael704 and he's still trying to gain the approval of his parents :(
Things are much clearer now re: Canada's problems.
I believe this is why JT doesn’t like women
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree..!
She should have been asked a question about her role in strengthening "relations" between Canada and Cuba.
Well,Cuba helped with 'Cupcake' 🇨🇺
He barely had to ask any questions! This witch flew in on her broomstick and never shut her trap! Castro Jr. surely takes after his mother...psychopaths!
@@idaknott3310 mental illness is hereditary. Imagine the combination of this crockpots genes and that of a communist zealot and you get Justin Turdoa.
Nah ! Cocaine.
That's such a ridiculous rumour; Justin was a baby when the Trudeaus first met him.
So this is why he became a drama teacher in education aside from being a student at WEF
Does she has any influence on his son, Justin Trudeau? Tell him to talk to the people who he suppose to serve to.
No, at his inauguration Justin swore allegiance to Queen Elizabeth. It's the financial City of London that rules the world, including all politicians the world over. Check out Day 2 of Reiner Fuellmich's The Grand Jury (12th Feb 2022). It's on TH-cam and Bitchute.
@@catsnmi270 I'm afraid you wright.
Now I understand why her son is so clueless and incompetent
Now add the sperm donor and you got yourself a sociopath on steroids.
Like mother : Like son !
Scary Stuff !
What she said about sleep & being tired from being active by excerising, walking outside & jumping was 🔑 key to breaking out of depression 👍
@causaps causaps ... God is always in control, if it's good then it comes from him☝so indeed it could have been Divine intervention 😁
@causaps causaps ...your opinion here is irrelevant as you are. I said God not gods, your ego & low IQ are detriments to you realizing you are a creation living in a creation hence there must be a creator
This woman and Fidel Castro, made Justin Trudeau, hmmm, that's why we have what we have in Canada.
Just what I was thinking
Such a ridiculous rumour, she didn't even meet Castro until Justin was over a year old.
@@oliviamartini9700 he us the image of Fidel IMO
@@oliviamartini9700 ol' Margi spread for many in secret
At Pierre Trudeaus funeral, Justin told Fidel, You wil always be my dad. Justin himself told me he was adopted by Pierre Trudeau and is the son of Fidel. Showed me pictures... And wanted me to be sure people knew this truth.
I've always loved her. The openness with which she talks about her condition is refreshing.
This clip says it all
THE APPLES DON'T FALL FAR FROM THE TREE
OLALALA, and she is mother of Canadian PM? HAHAHAHA, Good Luck Canada!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you think she is crazy in this interview, you should see the 60 minute interview she did in Australia in the late 70s or early 80s.
Also when she and her husband the prime Minister visited Cuba nine months later Justin Trudeau so was born and she admitted to having affairs on the Prime Minister. So it’s believed that Fidel Castro is Justin Trudeau‘s real father. So thank you we will need all the good luck we can get.
She had 5 children in total...( 1,2,2,) with 3 fathers.
She was a free spirit for sure
Exactly, Canadians are out of luck.
Margaret, if they were so happy in Cuba, why do they want to leave?
She looks constantly spaced out
Joy Ann El-Khouri that & shes mixing with booze. She’s drinking during the 60 minutes interview and she’s tipsy
a brain illness , not spaced out. educate yourself
Boy, you’re insufferably intolerable & ignorant beyond belief.
all the legal pot her little boy has legalized.
@@petersellmer9492 no she even admitted that often she did interviews while in a drug trance dont blame everything on bipolar
Teach your son that being prime minister is about helping others no yourself
Oh Good Grief! Youthful folly? Bipolar is one thing, but being a druggie most of your life creates its own issues! At least we know where young Justin gets his dramatic flare.
@GLM take a hike you pompous idiot
@@gordonbiglow4101 no paulina is right
@@MrRaulstrnad I wasn't talking about her if you see the@symbol but Margaret turdo needs no praise for sure
@@gordonbiglow4101 sorry
A walking ad for contraceptives...
Being highly promiscuous is also a bi-polar trait. It's well known that she slept around on her husband. Long term drug use, partying and not getting enough sleep can cause bipolar. Also postpartum and hormonal fluctuations can be the onset of the disease.
That is true.
Yes true
Is this Justin Trudeau’s mother? If so, this explains a lot.
Dang! She NEVER stops talking.
Jet set trash. Yes Margaret some of us are still alive and know who you really are.
Yep she was
Allegedly Pierre’s interest lay in another direction. In a previous interview she herself said that the marriage lacked warmth.
@@taraalan1131 Victim blaming. "I cheated because he wasn't giving me attention anymore, and you know what, it was probably because he wanted to cheat on me, blah, blah, blah."
@@CanadianEhHole Och well-she allegedly liked to generously share anyway (Rolling Stones etc.). The marriage probably suited both of them. No victims in reality.
Why does she still use the Trudeau name? She has had her 5 minutes of fame.
Can tell she was a very free spirited woman who felt caged..
Just watched an old 60 minutes interview in Australia. She was flakey then as she is now.
Cheryl Imeson i just watched that and what brought me here lol a charity giving this loon money to talk to kids 🤦🏼♂️ another scandal even when she’s senior citizen
I commend her vulnerability and honesty. I am not bipolar but I can only imagine what she has been through
I’ve just watched it. She’s definitely got some serious issues other than being unfaithful and ungrateful
Same. 1974 with George Negus. Getting old sucks
I came here after that 60 minutes video. I'm not interested to what she had to say. I'm here just to read people comments
I wonder if she’ll ever admit that Fidel Castro is Justin Trudeau’s father
GLM
Relax,
I’m just joking!
It’s something my grandfather use to say and we would laugh at him.
I am so proud of Mrs. Trudeau that she talks so openly about her condition It takes a lot of strength and courage to talk.she is helping lot of people by talking so openly.Thanks
NM AT It really is a public service; when first ladies disclose their alcoholism, or depression, they help huge numbers of people they break down the stigma and people go and get help. it’s really a public service what she’s doing; and it’s not that easy to go public about it. people don’t like to talk about their mental mental illness and she does it quite well.
@@ladyrose7793 its a publicity stunt by a has been
@@pbohearn except betty ford talking about her alcoholism was indeed a public service maggie trudeau refusing to see a connection between hard drug use and her mental condition leads people astray
Such a fascinating, compelling & charming woman. Easy to see what Pierre was drawn to, & easy to see how their diametrical characters would eventually grate & wear on eachother & the marriage would break down. Glorious for a while tho, & they both spoke well of & defended the other long after they divorced.
The big change, to me, from the earlier interviews to this one is her self-awareness. Still effervescent, funny, insightful, open & honest, but she brings a clear-eyed perspective here. Great interview of a woman who, even at this point in her life, is still ahead of her time.
I wish George would’ve kept doing these wonderful red chair interviews ... he always seemed to make his guests most relaxed and more open & honest.
What happened
I remember reading the first two books she wrote, long ago. Quite shocking at the time. I just want to say that in those days we did not understand mental illness. There was limited help. And post-partum depression is no laughing matter. To Margaret's credit, she has tried her best to get well. She seems loving & honest. She has truly been thru a lot in her life. It is fortunate that she has a very supportive family. She manages to keep positive, laughs a lot, & has a wonderful smile. We can't stand in judgement of her.
I agree. It is disheartening to read so many scathing comments about her. I feel like she is still judged through the 1960’s prism of what a wife and mother should be and the stigma of the hysterical woman (who really has a serious mental health disorder).
If those closest to her, her friends and family have chosen to embrace and forgive her, who are we to judge?
From what I gather, not much has changed over the years even with treatment. Her attitude is the same...drugs, sex and rock and roll!
Keep eating turd turds you'll go to heavens mountains
actually people around her recognized that she was manic depressive pierre secretly called in doctors but refused help instead she went onto hard drug binges even today she doesnt make a connection between her drug use and her mental problems basically she is a self centered narcissist
I agree. I've heard so many awful things about her and with everything going on here in Canada, l had to Google her, and l found her to be fun-living, freedom-loving, open and truly trying to be the best person she can be, despite her mental illness. Wish she could have advised her son about the need for citizens to have freedom in this beautiful country.
I saw the interview when she was younger and she was a space cadet hippie. Castro went hat-in-hand to every country he could but didn't make deals for food and Doctors only get $20 a month like every citizen.
Margret you are a spark and a light. Its your life, live it your way. You remind me so much of my mom. Shes gone now, but what i loved the most about her was how non judgmental she was. Most judged her though. Dont let them.
she is a hard core junkie sure she bipolar but she refuses to see that her use of drugs was a contributing factor
I have had BP most of my life (happily balanced now), and it was obvious to me that she was sub-threshold manic in the old 60-min interview - but I also think she had that kind of raw (and very unconventional) insight and wisdom that people have when they see their life taken apart and put together and taken apart again in the ups and downs of depression and mania and don't know what to hold on to...which, as difficult as it is (I think a lot of people don't have an idea of the suffering that inflicts on someone) can be the greatest chance of having to figure out a lot of things that most people leave at the surface because they don't have to face their demons in that way. But here...hm..."youthful folly" and "what did I know back then" and "we just had this generational gap" is not how I would talk or even think about my younger lost and struggling self and the thoughts I had back then and the decisions I made and the dysfunctional relationships I got myself into...is that what Prozac does to you when you take it for decades? Which I didn't even know is used to treat BP, it's not in my part of the world as far as I know. Did she never ask herself what made that girl who told her parents at 17 "I don't care, I just want to be free" and herself "I have to be me" marry a guy like Pierre Trudeau and try to fit herself into a box that said "first lady of Canada"? Or where her "man craziness" and "love craziness" (her words) come from? She talks about having to be aware and going inside but all I'm hearing is "chemical imbalance" and "activating serotonin with exercise"...my heart goes out to everyone who struggles, but there is no getting out of BP and finding balance without doing the actual inner work and addressing the bigger issues.
Does she ever take a breath?
Even bere she' appears to be on a manic high.
I believe she is a great lady and we are lucky to have such a well spoken person speaking from experience with truth on the epidemic of mental illnesses in Canada. God bless her always.
jeeezus she was promiscious as heck and huge drug user
@@MrRaulstrnad
You are mean and do not worth even a finger of this kind and honest woman!
@@user-xs9835 it’s time for your medication 💊 hon.
@@user-xs9835 Was she kind and honest when she cheated on her husband over and over again?
You never really recover from drugs.....
She’s doing much better here than the 60mins interview 20 years earlier. I’m glad her doctors eventually diagnosed her condition and she got adequate treatment. Even still, she talks a little too fast and goes off on tangents. Gotta watch that! Still very beautiful.
WTF? She was fine then shes a prozaced nightmare now. Drugs cause permanent damage and thete is no such thing as a chemical imbalance in the brain. People use it to get sympathy but its fake. Like viruses - its a pharma money-spinner off a gullible biologically ignorant population.
Bragatto thanks for sharing!
I could tell she had a mental illness in the 60 minutes interview, it was obvious to me.
I loved her 60 mins interview! She seemed very sane and quite cool to me.
More like still very crayzee.
Balance your moods. Total key.
This explains a lot
How did an articulate and highly intelligent PM find her worthy as a wife? That mindless decision had indelible consequences on Pierre's personal life and the life of us Canadians TODAY.
Spect Ator: Mid-life crisis, lol
difficult to know pierre was a high intellectual but was aging he might have seen her as a proxy to recover his youth
but there is another hypothesis which can never be truly proved- what if pierre saw her as a source of drugs as pm he would have problems getting hard drugs but margaret had connections this is just my wild speculation
Pierre was thinking with the wrong head.
I assume you're looking for an answer more sophisticated than "to have sex with her." Sorry, there's no other explanation.
@@jimoverly5386 absolutely
Still all over the place/unbalanced
Very interesting how she mentions "the Jesuits"
Exactly! It explains a lot. It's the Jesuits who rule the world. And NOT in a good way!
And her ex being one of them. Hmmm
Explains a lot of why Trudeau' is the way he is.
This woman gets a lot of guff but I do appreciate that she is pretty transparent and is willing to tell us honestly, I think, about herself and her struggles. She doesn’t seem conniving or evil or disingenuous. Canada could’ve done a lot worse.
No wonder Justin is crazy.......
Margaret is such a down to earth and thoughtful person. She got a raw deal from the press and public during her marriage to Trudeau. I'm glad she's seen now as a very genuine and compassionate woman who is full of life and love.
I love you Margaret trudeau
Derek Stockley Thank God we’re not under sharia law
@Kent B she totally rejected her kids in order to be a junkie and groupie
@@pbohearn with margaret sometimes i think sharia law for her wouldnt be so bad
She's down to Earth alright....
Alan Fotheringham once said Pierre's biggest mistake was marrying the ditzy Sinclair daughter, not the smart one.
She's been married at least twice since Pierre, yet she used the name Trudeau. Looking for publicity?
Mental illness takes many forms.....
Having a mental illness is 'living in hell inside your own head'. i know that first hand. Leave her alone. life is very hard with mental illness.
And more money from wherever she can get it. Justin needs to go! Disgusting family full of entitlement.
Because of her children & she was already a author since the late seventies.
Maybe Sharon Brown should smarten up, and not be such a sad spiteful woman tearing down other women with such callous cold heartedness.
@@petersellmer9492 so dont make it worse with drugs and stds
I am going to end p with bipolar after this❗️🥲
She didn’t even see Justin being PM...same
An 18year old girl was married off to a wealthy 50 year old man for breeding purposes. She gave birth to 4 children with her groomer, and the comments section is focused on her alleged sexual exploits as if the 50yo had nothing to do with this woman's breakdown.
It's difficult to be free in a world of slaves
Fidel Castro gave it to her.
She dresses like an airline attendant.
This was filmed a long time ago. That’s very unkind.
She was 18, and Pierre was 50, when they married. That's a little "off" to start with. And why, if she's re-married, does she keep the Trudeau name? Huh, she's still after the fame and the money.
Her children are Trudeau's and she was one for many years. She earned the right to carry that name. It doesn't mean she wants money or fame.
Her husband is very wealthy. She doesn’t need money. And you are here watching her and then commenting. Don’t be disingenuous.
What a family. Smh.
Interesting that Justin's 'pappa' Fidel supposedly wanted to take his countrymen from abject poverty, misery, and illiteracy - feed them, get them healthy, and educate them and he's (according to Margaret) done that. Meanwhile sonny boy appears to have the antithesis of those goals for his countrymen and he's well on his way to achieving those goals from all that I see.
The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.
Yeah Canada on its way to be the next Cuba.
@@JCX-9 it's an attempt but not executed, yet!
@@grahamluna6935 i sure hope not. But the normies have to get a taste of it to wake up. So many sleepers.
@@JCX-9 I'm not sure if they're asleep or just plain lazy.
Margaret is a beautiful lady. She's lived a life to say the least.
If only we knew the truth about that trip to Cuba 😉 but its ok, we understand it happens. 🙏❤.
Oh ffs. Never happened.
@@oliviamartini9700 dozens of potential donors. I doubt she ever had any idea, probably never will.
I'd say PETs chances are very low
I now agree with joe8075. My thoughts about Margaret Trudeau have altered since the recent WE scandal. Justine was raised in a privileged environment and is blinded by his apparent sense of entitlement. Sending troupes into Mali while she was a volunteer, was the thing that made me think twice about her character and her son's.
what about your character letsif. you are very stupid when it comes to the human brain. educate yourself. investigate, google bipolar.
The WE Charity is such a fart in the conservative distraction windstorm ... you are cobbling done misprinted headlines and regurgitating, like the vomit that is your lacklustre unintelligible rhetoric.
@@smallstudiodesign WE self serving dog & pony show.
@@petersellmer9492 no in her case there are other contributing aspects hard drugs and stds she would truly provide a public service if she would talk about them but she doesnt
@@smallstudiodesign no there are huge questions to be asked about the we organization sure it is being used to score politcal points but there is warranted suspicion of major corruption dont fall into the media created cult of the kielburgers and ask how craig kielburger came to own 50 million dollars of toronto real estate while running a charity
Well this is an improvement from the 60 minutes interview, it certainly explains what is wrong with Justin but we can also include narcissism in him.
Dang! She's a talker 😂🤣
George: "When you look back on your antics do you ever think.... ?"
zwykla latawica i zero moralnosci
9:13 That's just painful to watch. Did she know she was being recorded? Or that there are a few million Cubans who disagree with her?
A fantastic woman who has overcome incredible challenges. Congrats to her.
Jagger went in first, then the rest of the stones took they're turn, finally Castro got sloppy sixths, nine months later, along came Justin.
She's WHACKED
how did they take they're turn? was you're mom they're to?
I've been saying it for weeks. JT needs a mental health check!! lol Runs in the family!! Not to be down on his ma
I actually think she is very brave in telling her story
It's the meds
Why did You not have a child with Mick Jagger or any of the many others...Why Castro...
you are ignorant.
Don’t plagiarize Tommy Chong’s joke .. if you can’t even recite it properly.
i can see why and how Pierre Trudeau fell in love with her she is very candid and gracefully charming
Like she describes, with the age difference, I think he was seeing himself as a Sangali that he would shape and finish her off nicely to be the perfect beautiful wife for his administration. He basically wanted Jackie Kennedy but she hadn’t gone through finishing school yet, and she was severely mentally ill , which he didnt see until they were married and he was elected. And then he started to get that she was a handful and he wasn’t going to be able to mold her nicely. Basically I don’t think he really bothered to see her, cared enough, was fine with the superficial acting “as if”, because he didn’t really care; he just wanted a beautiful woman at his side. Chauvinistic but she essentially says it and he was a generation older. It would not have taken much to realize that this is a very disturbed woman. The fact that he didn’t realize that before he got married to her is remarkable to me, because within five minutes of her old interview it was very obvious to me that she was a very sick lady.
I love this lady.. love her lots !!!!
Canada doesn't have a first lady, spouses have only ever been referred to as wife of the Prime Minister.
She seems a bit manic here.
Her condition nothing to do with after effects and impact of any drug taking. Or it simply runs in the family...
I believe her mental health was a result of drug use. In the 70s she was well known to be a marihuana user at celebrity swinger parties. She must have used some other drug other than marihuana that causes depression/bipolar..
its a disorder not a disease
Brain disease
She's kind of like a Kristen Wiig character on SNL
Andrew Zettel 👍🏻😊
She is fascinating to listen to.
Margaret is still very pretty and charming! And talking about her vulnerability is heart warming.
The Cuban Citizens are not healthy! They are constantly starving! What is wrong with this woman? She still out of touch with reality! Let’s see how long she would survive under the same conditions as the Cuban people! 😭😞😢🧐🙏
WoW! Some people are just a bunch of negative Nelly’s. Have you all tried living with Bi-polar? Have some sympathy for crying out loud. And who cares if Margaret still carry’s the Trudeau name. Why does that bother people? There’s a lot more serious issues going on in the world than former wives hanging onto a former husband’s last name?? Do any of you follow any global issues at all?? Leave the poor lady alone. Margaret has endured a lot of pain and suffering in her life and we should be offering her encouragement and some compassion . And let’s talk Cuba!!!! I bet half of you on here at one point probably visited Cuba or would love to visit Cuba!! I know I would love to visit ! We r not Americans ! We are Canadians ! Keep up the good fight Margaret and RIP Pierre and Fidel!
7:30 What?
A shameless woman who insists her audiences use four letter words.
Margret, you are adorable and refreshing, good energy. Zero deceit. Love you!
George would blow JT given the chance...
@GLM
Why?
To trigger metrosexual liberal airheads.
Looks like it worked.
Wow she is really a fast wit.
Margaret writing a book????? Thats an oxymoron!!!!
'THE FATHERS OF MY CHILDREN". WHO ARE THEY?
Like mother like son. Too bad for Canadians he’s the PM.
I’ve never heard her speak when she couldn’t stop babbling nonsense.
George your such a stud & so sweet❤️😘❤️😘❤️😘
Is she onsomething?
she is on drugs for bipolar. but it doesn't stop all the symptoms. call it a broken brain. but don't be ignorant. investigate. don't say she is stupid. she is not!
@@petersellmer9492 actually she often combined her meds with drugs
Weird 😳😳.. those drugs are very dangerous..
Now it's clearer to me why Justin is crazy.
She was Rod Stewart's "Maggie May"...?!
Love her
A Canadian icon
Oh. Did Maggie get a pass out of the detox ward or the psych ward for this interview?
Wow, thanks for confirming to the world that Canada is as backwards as ever and still stigmatizes & bullies people with mental illness.
@@smallstudiodesign no robin makes a valid point what can you say about maggie, she is person who doesnt make a connection between drug use and mental illness she leads people astray
That’s pretty cruel, the woman makes sense today and she admits to her struggles.
Gosh..she never stops talking.
No need for an interview just give her a microphone.
These people should never be in parliment
I listened to Sophie on Meghan's podcast, she seems a little goofy too, but maybe she was just being silly.
She’s a nut bar. I prefer Margaret in every way.
