Kevin O'Leary slams 'weak' Justin Trudeau for blaming plane crash on Trump-Iran escalation
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's comments that suggest that actions from the U.S. may have been indirectly responsible for the downing of the Ukrainian commercial plane over Iran is not helping with Canada-U.S. relations, said Kevin O'Leary, star of Shark Tank and chairman of O'Shares ETFs.
"Justin Trudeau is the gift that just keeps on giving," O'Leary told Kitco News. "I'm sure that taking your largest trading partner and saying something like that to them wasn't well thought out."
