Kenney has endorsed O'Toole

No surprise there.  Might help in AB but likely as much of a liability in the ROC.

In the leadership race? I don' think so.  Kenney was close to Harper who is like the Canadian Ronald Reagan among CPC members.  I think Kenney is mostly liked by cons

I did and it’s the typical crowd doing their typical booing.

Harper said the mandatory long-form census was an invasion of privacy and wanted it to be voluntary. Cue the outrage.

The Liberals appear to have found a friend in their bid to avoid further scrutiny over the SNC shenanigans and Trudeau’s interference, with the Bloc voting to suppress further investigations and giving the minority Liberals the out they need.

“The prime minister promised openness and transparency, but yesterday at the ethics committee, that proved to be more empty promises,” he said. “The Liberals voted to shut down a study of the Trudeau II Report, but they could not do it alone.”

If it's voluntary they might as well not bother with it at all.  The whole point of making it mandatory for those who get it is to ensure an unbiased representative sample.

Well that's odd. Ford has asked Ontario residents to not leave their towns and cities to go to their vacation cabins.

that's what middle and upper-income people do in ontario every weekend.  but in fairness it does not really start in earnest until "may long" or "may two four".

This is a Trudeau family, rules do not apply to them.

Blistering indictment of Trudeau in just released autobiography by former Australian PM.

 

https://nationalpost...ormer-aussie-pm

 

Former Australian prime minster Malcolm Turnbull has accused Justin Trudeau of “humiliating” other world leaders during negotiations for a revamped Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal in 2017.

 

In a just published autobiography, Turnbull said he personally felt let down by Trudeau and upbraided him for embarrassing other world leaders when he failed to show up for a critical meeting.

 

Turnbull said he was scheduled, by coincidence, to meet with Trudeau after the no-show and the Canadian prime minister seemed more interesting in talking about his socks than the previous meeting.

 

“Justin always wore perfectly tailored suits that fitted like a glove, bright socks and on this occasion two-tone shoes,” wrote Turnbull. “‘What do you think of the socks?’ he asked, crossing his legs as he sat down. ‘Justin,’ I said, ‘we’re not here to talk about your socks’.”

 

“What, Justin, is going on? You have just humiliated our friend Shinzo, who happens to be the leader of the third largest national economy in the world,” wrote Turnbull. “And, if that wasn’t enough, you have humiliated our host, Prime Minister Phuc.”

As Justin's father is quoted as saying, I'm sure Justin has been called worse things by better people.

For Phuc’s sake, JT can be flakey, but who takes Turnbull seriously, especially in his own country?!

“ Does it come in 3-ply?' Malcolm Turnbull's autobiography is already in the bargain bin - as Australians SAVAGE the bitter dumped PM's book on social media”
