Macleans has a very flattering profile of our MP, Ahmed Hussen.
It’s virtually impossible to imagine a way in which the 40-year-old could be better suited to the cabinet job he now holds. He came to Canada fleeing the Somali civil war, and subsequently lived in Regent Park, a once-troubled and isolated downtown Toronto public housing project he would help rejuvenate and repatriate to the residents when redevelopment came calling. Later, he opened a law practice focusing on immigration law and criminal cases, particularly for young offenders.
Obviously the reporter has never heard the man respond to direct questions. Or read Weston Web on our representative. But the party line came through: PR works.
Wish he would do something for the community he represents.
So Hussen hems and haws at every turn but why the surprise over his behavior? It’s taqiyya in full bloom. The man is deeply conflicted by serving two masters.
