   Foreign AffairsAndrew Scheer (Conservative) asked Justin Trudeau (Liberal). substantive question.Answer ignores the firing timeline and pivots to attacking Scheer's Brexit stance.I would recommend that the leader of the official opposition not make an issue of a foreign policy decision because he is the one who took a pro-Brexit stand in an extremely divisive situation for the United Kingdom.
