Apologies, lies and Eastern bias, just another week for the PM
If there are a couple of things that we have learned in the past week, it is that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau enjoys apologizing FOR Canadians but not TO Canadians.
As well we learned, or it was reaffirmed, that it would certainly be nice if Alberta was given the same economic treatment as Canada’s massive voting block in Quebec and Ontario.
The PM has given public apologies for practically everything he deems as wrongdoings in Canadian history, apparently all-knowing events and cultural mores which led to them. Yet when he was declared to have breached ethics by commissioner Mario Dion in his report regarding SNC-Lavalin recently, the PM said he will not say he is sorry to Canadians.
“The authority of the prime minister and his office was used to circumvent, undermine and ultimately attempt to discredit the decision of the director of public prosecutions as well as the authority of Ms. Wilson-Raybould and the Crown’s chief law officer,” said Dion.
Replying to charges, Trudeau said he will not apologize for standing up for Canadian jobs. Apparently that means interfering with prosecutions, pressuring people, firing those who will not let him get his way, and then lying to Canadians and indeed Parliament – typically a cause for resignation of dismissal. . . . contd.
