This is just another example of Trudope's ego - he assumes he was ever 'connected' to Canadians.
Pretty hard to 're-connect' when you have never been connected.

This guy is so far removed from what the average Canadian goes through in their lives (paying mortgages/rent having enough to buy food, clothe the children) since he has never wanted for anything. Nothing wrong with that, but don't go around like you know what the average Canadian is going through!
