Great times... the feminist PM now has three woman publically hitting him. A doctor who is a very good minister... Judy the polished native attorney general...and now an MP who he yelled at...oh yeah she is black too.

 

Love it but need a popcorn refill

Fool. In intersectionalism Francophone and donations trump all. You dont pay lip service to your core constituency, just the useful idiots. A woman who expects extra value for being a woman forgets you can just claim to be one now.

SNC-Lavalin, a Canadian corporate giant with an established history of corruption, is charged with bribing the Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi's brutal regime over many years, in exchange for lucrative contracts.

If it is not a hatecrime, was the puncher at least sentenced for assault or something?

Trudeau and Wilson-Raybould: The crisis that could unseat Canada's PM(bbc)

 

Mr Trudeau has been accused of pressuring his former attorney general to cut a deal with a company facing corruption charges - and retaliating when she refused to play ball.

The revelations could cost Trudeau the October general election, some pundits say.

The former AG, Jody Wilson-Raybould, says Trudeau and his staff spent months trying to convince her that taking the company to trial would cost Canadians jobs, and their party votes.

She also says she was subject to "veiled threats", which she believes were made good when she was shuffled out of her department.

 

 

So clean and nice. He looked so friendly on the billboard.

Tamara Crowchief may have yelled "I hate white people" as she carried out a violent assault on a white person, but that doesn't mean her attack was racially motivated, a Canadian judge has ruled.

Also 6 months in jail, 12 months of probation

If the incident was as reported, then clearly the only motive was that the victim was White. Was it the other way, the perpetrator would have been convicted of a hate crime and rightfully so. Six months in jail is about the normal sentence for an assault like this.

I figure this belongs here more than it does in the America thread because the Mystery Feet wash up in both countries.

 

The Curious Tale of the Salish Sea Feet

To date, 21 disembodied feet have washed up on the shores of Seattle’s Salish Sea. What at first looked like the work of a serial killer turned out to be something even more unsettling: A message from the ocean about who we are.

The incredible shrinking PM:

 

The conservatives are coming for Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

A right-of-center party swept to power Tuesday in the prairie province of Alberta, riding a wave of angst over the struggling oil sector and the federal government’s climate change plan.

The United Conservative Party, led by Jason Kenney, beat Rachel Notley’s New Democratic Party by a good margin, largely by casting the incumbent, who opposed Trudeau on several issues, as part of a “Notley-Trudeau alliance.”

With the big win in Alberta, right-leaning parties control five of Canada’s 10 provinces, including Ontario and Quebec (Canada also has three territories). The leaders of these provinces, called premiers, constitute a growing threat to Trudeau heading into the federal election in October.

Canada is seen internationally as a bastion of progressive politics, and under Trudeau has been cast as a foil to President Trump’s United States. But Trudeau’s Liberal government finds itself fending off a conservative surge that could reshape the face of Canadian politics.

Kenney and other provincial leaders, including Ontario’s Doug Ford, have taken aim at Trudeau’s policies, particularly his government’s efforts to fight climate change by “'putting a price on pollution” (as the government calls it) or “taxing carbon” (as conservative critics like to say).

Their attack on Trudeau’s policies comes at a moment when the prime minister looks personally vulnerable.

For months, the prime minister and his team have been dogged by claims they inappropriately pressured Canada’s first indigenous attorney general to defer the prosecution of a Quebec-based engineering firm — and demoted her when she pushed back.

Soon, we'll launch a fleet of A-400Ms from Berlin's new airport to support you.

:D

 

Is this a "Soon, soon", or a SoonTM on Tuccy's style when asked about new things in some of his games?

We still might have the 'pretty boy' in charge after Oct :( with the Con vote spilt between the 2 Con parties.

What two conservative parties? There's the Conservative Party of Canada and a handful of fringe types, including Bernier, who will be lucky to get three percent combined.
