So Trudeau is the judge....

[bucket]

In Canada. ...the prime minister is not to oversee the judiciary. ....the prime minister should have been the one kicked out....

[grassfarmer]

ummm, I guess we will see about that ?
add to this scandal, his total failure at managing the economy , killing all buisness in western Canada, groping , laying a tax on Canada that will finish us off, trump playing him like a fool , etc. etc. etc.
keebec won't leave him , why on earth would they ?
but Ontario will drop him as fast as they did that premier after she broke the province , they know that money has to be made somewhere ?
make no mistake , the experiment is over
he was supposed to be a leader

Exaggeration much? "killing all buisness in Western Canada" - hardly!
"laying a tax on Canada that will finish us off" - what the 4c/litre tax on fuel when the fuel companies had already raised it about 15c/litre over the preceding month?
Keep on kidding yourself - but it's not reality.

4 cents plus gst that none of your competitors are paying ?
fuel companies have always screwed us , nothing we can do about that
but Canada can and will send this gong show packing
only buisness thriving here is pot sales
certainly not car/truck/machinery sales , construction, farming, oilpatch , lumber , etc.
oh and correct me if I'm wrong , but you seem to think carbon tax only affects fuel/gas ?
surely you are not that naive ? you always struck me as someone fairly intelligent ??

Totally agree. Average Canadian could care less that 2 people were kicked out of caucus, or by whom, or for what ever reason.
You also have forgotten there were a number of Conservatives kicked out of caucus in the previous government; some for reasons much more serious than current and it did not cost the Conservatives. If you don't remember, check out the removal of Casey in 2007, Turner 2007, Jaffer 2010, Guergis 2010, Brazeau 2013, Meredith, 2017, and Green 2017.
And then there are those like Bernier, Duffy, and Wallin who were not kicked out but it likely hurt the party more by keeping them in caucus than had they been asked to leave.
People are so fed up with politicians they expect bad behavior and ignore it when it is exposed to the light of day

Soooo , I guess nothing to see here , move along people , move along .

When cbc commenters are overwhelmingly angry at Trudeau, one knows the tide has turned.

I am mystified that the liberals think this will end the affair. It has now, only just begun. Watch for more defections in the next hours and days. And watch the polls implode on the liberals. ABL will be the name of the game. Third, maybe no party status. You heard it here first!

Agree big wheel, taping a conversation without disclosing is if not illegal, it is also not legal, and would never be admissible in a court of law. The one taping has the ability to lead the respondent, and therefore is considered entrapment.
Truly sleazy if someone in your party, and Trudeau’s action makes him look ethical and a protector.

Just like poking his nose in the Bushy case 👎👎👎👎👎

or awarding the 10 million to KADR

JWR lost a lot of credibility with the taping "I'm really uncomfortable having this conversation" - no you weren't - if you were taping it for future use that sounds pretty premeditated - perhaps an attempt at entrapment even. Trudeau is right to fire them - he had to.

Prosecutors office has to be independent, the decision was made in Sept. JWR respected prosecutors decision. Should have been the end of it.

Really? Who resigned and why?

Two women were expected to be part of an unethical team....this is the type of nonsense that leads to people on sports teams being sexually abused....take it for the team...

****ing stupid comments from the Liberals .


That phone call was on the record....but the tone and the fact that Wernick took part wasn't ...he denied it and the tone he used...

This worked out perfectly. Dumbo has alienated all Indians and most rational women, two big groups that put him where he is today. He alienated millenials long ago with abandoning political reform. I doubt he could get 25% of the vote today, more like 20. JWR can now focus her anger on the Liberals and keep them from changing the channel. Hope they both join Conservatives for next election - talk about high caliber candidates.

I am betting he loses lots of seats to the Bloc. Sure hope a separation referendum comes around again in my lifetime. #ditchthefrogs

I can't undestand why the rest of canada hasn't punted them
same as collecting equalization every year since inception ?
how is that not seen as the abuse it is ?
they sure as hell won't have the gall to try another referendum though , that is gauranteed
