Trudeau Brazeau Boxing Poem

MP Rodger Cuzner's poem on Justin Trudeau's boxing victory over Patrick Brazeau sent Liberals in the House of Commons into a frenzy on Monday.

The MP famous for his rhyme on the Bev Oda KAIROS affair, took to the floor of the House to toast Trudeau on his victory.

"The Ballad of Justin and Patrick" brought the Grits to their feet, many of them sporting boxing gloves (read the full text below). The Liberals haven't partied like this since 1993.

PHOTOS: TRUDEAU VS. BRAZEAU

Two men in the ring, 800 in the stands; One wrote a cheque with his mouth, he couldn’t cash with his hands.

The Tory nation was cocky, they came out in full force;
But like the F-35 contract, they backed the wrong horse.

Liberals must be defeated, that’s known Tory credo;
They had nothing to hide, you could tell by that Speedo.

The Senator came out hard and brought Tories to their feet;
But in less than a minute, he looked pretty well beat.

The red onslaught of punches could not be contained;
Like those Tory attack ads, stinging and sustained.

The bombs came in from everywhere, our boy pummeled and pounded;
It looked like the Senator thought he was surrounded.

He was dazed and confused, the ref twice stopped the fight;
He got hit with so many lefts, he was beggin’ for a right.

In less than six minutes it was all over and done;
A TKO victory, the good guys had won.

The Tories were devastated by this jaw-dropping blow;
Ezra’s microphone went silent, his big mouth stuffed with crow.

But the Tories aren’t finished, they’ll want a rematch I’m bettin’;
They’ll find someone tougher – maybe Marjory LeBreton!

That was well done and Funny. East Coasters have a way with words. I do find Justin hard to watch though . Can't answer that one. I'd vote NDP first.

Speedo with nothing to hide was the best line.

Just looks like they're having a good laugh... hardly "going crazy". Another hyperbolic headline.

Yeah, laugh it up and have a good time while the country goes to s***. 20,000 laid off today... let's win some seats not a stupid boxing match!

"Liberals go crazy over Trudeau win" says the headline. Only part of this is true. The "Liberals go crazy" part

I bet Justin plays the piano better and sings better than "The Embarrassment"
...with or without gloves...

Kudos to Trudeau and Brazeau for raising funds for charity while showcasing good sportsmanship. Good fun for a great cause.

They raised $230 000 for cancer. That's nothing to be embarrassed about.

i'm talking about the ridiculous behavior in the house, no the boxing match. that did raise a lot of money and was not a waste of time, in fact it was nice seeing brazeau eat his words.

how did i lose? i wasn't there, and i was cheering for trudeau. it was nice to see brazeau eat some humble pie. i'm talking about the lame poem and the childish gloating and brandishing of boxing gloves in the house. all those mp's who held gloves up would get their a**es handed to them. i would like to see them work at defeating the conservatives instead of glorying in a minor side show.

Your boy lost eh?

It's nice that Trudeau won and that a lot of money raised but some of the MPs that did not risk their necks in the ring should show some restraint to match the class and dignity Justin Trudeau has shown since the fight. Justin has not only praised Brazeau for doing the fight but he also showed him mercy by not cutting his hair.

Sometimes the high road is best.

I agree as a Liberal! Even though this gave me a giggle!
