They'll figure a way to get rid of her, but the story ain't going away. This is the biggest political scandal since #adscam and now #lavscam...DarthMaeglin said:A pretty good summation of JWR's testimony. It really is hard to see her still in the Liberal caucus by week's end.

I believe every word of what she has to say, but her pauses when answering certain questions were telling.
I loved that Gerald Butts is going to be taken down hard in this. That dude is fucking fraud.Give Peas A Chance…0 -

Ummm. Pardon me? Are they, and you, claiming that's actually what was said? Because of course that's ridiculous, and kind of a weird claim for a publication to make.
The whole affair certainly appears to be full of unethical behaviour and wrongdoing on several levels, from what we know so far. We don't know all of it and I'm sure there's more info come out. It's puzzling why anyone thinks they need to make up shit to add to it, particularly the ongoing personal slurs that seem to be featured here lately.
Here is the text of the actual letter written by Butts.
“I watched the testimony of the Honourable Jody Wilson-Raybould yesterday,” Butts’s letter said. “I believe my testimony will be of assistance to the (committee) in its consideration of these matters. I respectfully request the opportunity to attend the committee. I need a short period of time to receive legal advice concerning my evidence and to be able to produce relevant documents to the committee.”

If anybody believes Butts, I got swamp land for sale in Alaska...
Gerald Butts is a spoiled fucking creep and his influence in Ontario politics lead many in Ontario to energy poverty. He starts the process of the ship sinking then abandons the ship.
Of course, they'll let him testify. The lieberals control justice committee. I guess some Canadians are fine with tax dollars going to a corrupt company so they can hire prostitutes for dictators sons. I guess the hooker jobs is what PM Mr. Dressup wanted saved.

Some further info on the rise of “vaccine hesitancy” in B.C. Seems to have been stoked by an Ontario anti-caxxer transplanted into the B.C. interior.

it seems as if some of my "progressive" Canadian friends are more interested in another countries politics and looking down their nose, instead of holding their own leadership accountable

I agree with you 100%. He was the progressives wet dream when he got elected. The progressive used to call our former PM (who must be just loving this to some degree, I am) Crime Minister, they seem to suit our current PM more.my2hands said:it seems as if some of my "progressive" Canadian friends are more interested in another countries politics and looking down their nose, instead of holding their own leadership accountable
The liberals and conservatives in Canada are both corrupt, but we seamlessly shuffle between the 2. The NDP will never win federally, and some suggest the NDP in this federal election in October will be left with very little members elected.Give Peas A Chance…0 -
There are reasons why most of us rarely post in this thread anymore that predate the SNC Lavalin episode and which have nothing to do with not being “progressive enough”.my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf0
