Rubbish, Trump was brow beating the US Attorney General openly on Twitter and nothing happened. It barely raised an eyebrow
Breaking - Wilson-Raybould resigns from Trudeau cabinet in wake of SNC-Lavalin claims
- Thread starter WarGames
- Start date
Because they don't want the truth to come out.
Trudeau promised to have the most open and transparent government but it was just another of his many lies.
O man, the hits keep coming. Wonder if he'll blame this on Harper too #LPCFailThis tweet aged well
What are the limitations?
If the limitations are reasonable then I’m ok with it. If it’s to prevent, for example, a Ken Starr Whitewater investigation that extends far beyond its original mandate then fine.
That being said, I don’t see how the PM’s office can/should be dictating the terms of the investigation when it is the one being investigated...seems like an obvious Conflict of Interest.
So how is it not the most open and transparent Fed govt in Canadian history. Can you point to one that was more open and transparent?
They will meet in camera to discuss the list of witnesses...seems pretty open to me. But they are NOT going to allow the Cons to call any witness they want. Anyone who would agree to that is too dumb to govern.
Not allowing the former AG to testify? Seems pretty big that the one person who can clarify this is being denied a voice.
Is that true? Do you have a link to a reputable news site...(or do you have all non-Alt Right news outlets blocked on your computer?)
I dunno. Conil just posted another thread about this. I find myself agreeing with the Conservatives and NDP here that the specific allegations of PM interference should be examined. Let them call any witness they like; be transparent. To do otherwise makes it look like they’re hiding something.
PS: They should also waive privilege w JWR in my opinion.
I see, you believe only libtard news. Why don't you double check before looking like dumbo...
The Liberals also blocked a motion that called on the prime minister to lift solicitor-client privilege to allow Wilson-Raybould to speak freely about the allegations that have rocked the government.
“That is not an investigation. That is simply going through the motions,” NDP MP Nathan Cullen said after the meeting, charging that the Liberals sought to “batten down the hatches today and not allow any truth to come to light.”
The government has been rocked by a report in the Globe and Mail citing unnamed sources that Trudeau’s officials put pressure Wilson-Raybould to cut a deal with SNC-Lavalin instead of pursuing criminal charges that could prove financially crippling for the Quebec company.

She has an axe to grind. It appears she violated Cabinet Secrecy which is a big issue in govt. Also the fact she accepted then VA position and then resigned is really a negative mark on her character. She use the VA department just to stab the PM in the back.
Ah yes, character assassination.
Will we hear the "Lock her up!" chant from the Libs next?
The facts stand for themselves. Why did she accept the VA position if she was not happy with it? Did she object and complain to the PM that she was being pressured or demoted? The fact is, she was probably part of passing the Deferred Prosecution law, so when she did not use it as intended, the PM decided to pick someone who would serve the govt and not her own agenda. Simple, open and shut. Also one of her primary missions was to develop the reconcilliaton and justice framework that was the centerpiece of Trudeaus platform. It was tailor made for her and would have been an incredible legacy and achievement. She was unable to move that forward. Apparently her and the Indian Affairs minister were not getting on. So..once again another reason to replace her. She was set up for success big time.
Socrates: when the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser.
Everyone of Justin's disasters ( and there have been a lot) have been self-inflicted
He just was not ready & now we know..... he never will be
The Liberals are now trying to claim Wilson-Raybould may have been shuffled from Justice because she doesn't speak French.

Too funny.
This scandal just keeps snowballing and it ain't going away any time soon.
Whether the PMO behaved incorrectly or not in the discussions about SNC-Lavalin, some of the most lasting damage from this scandal will come from the prime minister's blatant dishonesty and the shocking ineptitude of the prime minister and his office in dealing with the mess.
