Canadians Outraged as Government Denies $15 Million to Meghan Markle’s Project

Canadians took to the streets in protest when the Canadian government, led by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, announced that $15 million would be allocated to Meghan Markle's latest project in partnership with Invictus Games.

This event, founded by her husband Prince Harry, would feature adapted winter sports to showcase Canada's unique nature.

Additionally, $1 million in federal funds would support soldiers participating in a program to bolster Canada's Olympic involvement.

However, this decision by Trudeau has not been well-received by everyone, particularly taxpayers in British Columbia.

They argue that this allocation of public funds is a misuse of taxpayer money for what they consider a vanity project for the controversial Duchess of Sussex.

Critics suggest that these funds could be better utilized for pressing priorities like healthcare, education, or environmental issues.

Protestors have expressed their displeasure with Meghan Markle, accusing her of hypocrisy in advocating for social justice and climate change while leading a lavish lifestyle that appears to contradict her principles.

They view her as an opportunist, using the Invictus Games as a platform to advance her own interests, including her Netflix deal.

Moreover, these protests have also shed light on Prime Minister Trudeau, who some perceive as a leader catering to celebrities and foreign interests.

Critics accuse him of betraying the Queen and the Commonwealth by aligning himself with Harry and Meghan, who have openly criticized the royal family.

They question Trudeau's motives in supporting the Invictus Games, especially considering the timing just before the next federal election.

These protests have gained significant momentum on social media, with a petition garnering over 100,000 signatures urging Trudeau to reconsider his decision and allocate funds to more urgent causes.

The petition also calls for an apology from the Queen and the royal family, along with the revocation of Harry and Meghan's honorary Canadian citizenship.

Despite the opposition, Trudeau's spokesperson reaffirmed his support for the Invictus Games, highlighting its value in showcasing Canada's diversity and inclusivity.

While neither Harry nor Meghan directly addressed the controversy, sources close to them expressed gratitude for Trudeau's support and his determination to bring the Invictus Games to Canada.

The event is scheduled to take place in Vancouver from February 18th to 24th and will feature over 500 competitors from 20 countries participating in various winter sports, including skiing, snowboarding, ice hockey, curling, and wheelchair basketball.

Cultural and educational activities such as concerts, workshops, and exhibitions will also be incorporated.
