Liberals self destruction continues. Another MP angry at Trudeau gives details to Globe and Mail for the first time today

 

Ms. Caesar-Chavannes, a first-term MP from the Toronto area, said she had told Mr. Trudeau in a phone call on Feb. 12 that she would be announcing her decision not to run again in the October election. She said Mr. Trudeau told her to wait, because Ms. Wilson-Raybould had quit cabinet that day. She felt that he was worried about “the optics of having two women of colour leaving,” Ms. Caesar-Chavannes said.

 

lol, that will cost a decent chunk of Liberal ridings in Vancouver and Toronto.

I like the comment I saw online about political cartoons....."never included in the funny pages, because they're nothing to laugh about".

How many times do we have to say it, an activist is only interested in the fight/struggle. Once the fight diminishes then they will find a new fight. Same thing is happening in the US with a handful of new Dems now turning on their own party.

Hopefully the clear message to our party leadership teams is to stick to quality and experience.

You have to love the political illustrators, they seem to have an uncanny way of distilling the mood of the Canadian populate into a single pane.
Let us hope some of these cartoons are recalled by the electorate come October or whenever the vote is called.

Methinks the federal Liberals just might have some more pressing matters prior to the October election.

The NDP justice critic [Murray Rankin] is urging the Liberal government to help him improve a bill to help Canadians carrying burdensome cannabis records and ensure the legislation passes before the fall election...

"..As a chief commissioner of the British Columbia Treaties Commission, and as regional chief of the Association of First Nations in British Columbia, Wilson-Raybould and her husband authored an 800-page book called the British Columbia Association of First Nations Governance Toolkit — a Guide to Nation-Building. It was a toolkit for the self-emasculation of Canada as a sovereign jurisdiction, and a guide to the jurisdictional destruction of Canada as a nation and its voluntary submission, on grounds of the alleged moral turpitude of the European discoverers and settlers of this country, to the overlordship of the notoriously ragged self-defined communities of partially pre-European descended people in Canada. Her declared objective was to “take back” what the natives had lost. I have written here before, that where we are headed in public policy is the implicit recognition that the European occupation of Canada was morally indistinguishable, other than in the sophistication of its brutality, from the Nazi-Soviet occupation of Poland in 1939. Because the occupation was by waves and centuries of generations of peaceable civilians, the withdrawal of the invader, unlike the case of Poland in 1939–44, is not expected, merely the admission by the 98.5 per cent of the population who qualify as comparative latecomers, that the perfidy of their antecedents requires them to become the servile enrichers of the long-wronged natives."

"......Wilson-Raybould came out of the ministerial gate like a fire horse and throughout her tenure wore her nativist colours threadbare. She declared the so-called Indian treaties to be invalid, and redefined them as the right of the natives “to self-determination and self-government.” She was instrumental in trumpeting the (Justin) Trudeau government’s “Rights and Recognition Framework,” unveiled in February 2018, as shifting the rights under Section 35 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms as not applying only to Aboriginal rights that existed in 1982, but to all laws and official practices.

This would, in practice, have a severe impact on the disposition, regulation or exploitation of any significant natural resource anywhere in Canada. The economic development and growth of Canada that had anything to do with natural resources would be dictated by any of these 600 native organizations all purporting, with enthused government quiescence, to be “nations” negotiating, on a basis of equality with the one nation of all the rest of Canada, i.e., one nation of 601 juridically equal entities, although one particular entity comprises 98.5 per cent of the population and has been recognized by the world as Canada’s government for 152 years."

^ & ^^

Those are two of the most thought provoking posts that I have ever read on Vibrant Victoria.

I have two words for those two posts.....holy crap!

I had no idea about either of those topics. Did the Rockefeller Foundation fund the Together Victoria group as well?

That’s the tactic they’ve decided on. Close it down. Leave the full story untold. Use process to obscure truth. There’s a morbid irony in using control of the justice committee as the instrument to deny the function of the justice committee. If this were the Harper years they’d call it muzzling. The mores change with the tempores, I suppose.

I don't expect you to read all 805 pages. (I haven't yet)  Just know it's there.

 

Penned by our former Federal Minister of Justice and her First Nations lobbyist husband Tim

 

This Jody gal has a chance of becoming our next Prime Minister. Wait for it.

I am sure that was part of the plan. The National Post article is quite an eye opener though. I had no idea that she had used her position to try and influence FN court decisions against the Government. I fail to see how that is any different then what she accused Trudeau of.

Sure looks like it, doesn’t it?

If this were occurring under Harper there would be outrage.

so to recap.  during a period of pretty much the best possible economy you could hope for outside of just the last 2 years in alberta he has met almost none of the economic budget goals. so if he does this badly in a good economy how well does he handle budgets in a bad one?
