Toronto star article

If your going to complain or comment about a personal opinion columnist, at least get the day right. Mallick has no column in the Star today, (Sunday), it was in Saturdays Star.LOL.

C’mon now. Is this all you have? You make it too easy. Up your game if you’re going to protect a bunch of lieing incompetents with no morals. Go ahead make some argument that supports what the PMO and Privy Council did. It’s your team right?

LOL he really said that did he? I have him blocked so I don't see his inane chatter. But you're right, that is so lame if that's all he could muster up. Who cares what day it was anyway, what she wrote in that article is the subject of this thread. And he actually thought he was being witty, what a loser.

Cheers

Make no mistake ... these articles are part of a bigger Liberal strategy. Have you not seen the numerous articles that have come out in the past week that basically are trying to say the SNC Scandal is no big deal? In fact last night, I read a new article that states this is nothing compared to the abuse of power by Trump's administration ... and sure, maybe it's not ... but it's still WRONG. What's next, hey compared to a serial killer, Trudope looks good? Yeah, sure.

Many, many articles trying to make this a mickey mouse issue ... and it's coming from the Liberals ... these papers aren't independent anymore, they are told by the Liberals what to write.

They're right, its no big deal... just a major Canadian company giving huge amounts of money to the brutal dictator of a county whose residents were fleeing as refugees and being resettled in Canada at the expense of Canadian taxpayers.

What if it wasn't Libya but was instead Syria? Hey JT, think about that for a moment...

What it is all about is share values of SNC first. The biggest shareholder is the Quebec public service union. I would also be curious to see how Morneau Shepell and Trudough’s trust fund is invested in SNC. Secondly SNC is a huge political contributor to the Liberals. They are fighting charges of illegal donations too. Even the CBC has said that the figure of 9000 employees isn’t believable.
If SNC had to walk away from the projects they secured through political bribes the other reputable Engineering firms would step in to do the work. Unless.....the work wasn’t actually needed or even done at all. Anybody remember the money laundering of ADSCAM?
Being barred from Federal projects doesn’t stop them from bidding on Provincial ones. They could live off the crooks who run Quebec and Quebecers would be good with that.
When you start to erode the rule of law for political gain you are creating a Banana republic with snow.

Well it is a Quebec company...

and as for the Toronto Star, I would really like to find out how they do the subscriptions ... I had a free subscription that they said was funded by a company for years, I got so sick of it I cancelled even that, I was called repeatedly about free and deal subscriptions for years... cancelling the Bell wired phone took care of that and most of the duct cleaning calls.

The Libs don't seem to have an issue with the prostitution, bribes, coverups, intimidation, attempting to illegally influence criminal proceedings.. etc. at all do they.... I guess if Butts didn't like the influencing law (as per her testimony), I wonder what other laws he didn't like.... I also wonder if Butts was the one that coached Justin here ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iY3I2ewuxQ0

Also... bribes to them isn't a problem since after all Justin admires dictators and tyrants (China and Cuba for example.)

Justlied keeps talking about rebates on the carbon tax too ... but does that include the planned increases...

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has repeatedly touted the federal levy, starting at $20 per tonne and rising to $50 in 2022, as the centrepiece of efforts to fight climate change.

'DPA's were put into law to avoid harming parties that aren't directly responsible for wrongdoing. To prevent harm to innocent stakeholders, that could include employees and pensioners', says Richard Lablanc, law and ethics professor at York Uni..... Seems like it did what it was supposed to. Harper was in power when SNC broke all those laws , so maybe they knew that the Libs would form the next government and help them out. LOL
