Canada's Prime Minister Trudeau lost his temper and started hitting MPs from other parties. He banged one MP in the breast with his elbow, hard enough to cause her pain.

He apologized for this, but his misogynistic followers are now sending her hate mail.

I wonder what in the world he thought he was doing by trying to drag an opposition MP away from an official activity. Was there any legitimate grounds for that, or was it an act in opposition to Canada's constitution? I don't know.
