Some of you non-Canadians have shown an interest in Canadian politics
from time to time so I thought I should mention something you may not
have heard in your media. Our Prime Minister is at the center of a major
political scandal and has demonstrably interfered in - and had various
high-ranking minions interfere in - a legal situation FOR HIS PARTY'S
POLITICAL ADVANTAGE. That happens to be against the law and, if
convicted, he (and any minions) could go to jail for up to 10 years.
This web page summarizes the situation so I won't bother to do so. The
video on this page is lengthy - an hour and 16 minutes - but lays out in
a very clear fashion the testimony of the former Minister of Justice
(who was concurrently the Attorney-General of the country) and why an
immediate RCMP investigation needs to be launched to verify that the
prime minister, the Finance Minister, and several senior officials, as
well as the Clerk of the Privy Council (the senior civil servant: think
Sir Humphrey Appleby from Yes, Prime Minister) have indeed violated the
law, not just once but on many occasions.
I expect Adam Kerman, anim, and BTR1701 will find this especially
interesting if you can fit it into your busy schedules.
I would be happy to answer any questions you might have. I imagine Horny
Goat and David Johnston will keep me honest if I state anything unclearly.
Ezra Levant, who presents the video, is right. I've NEVER seen a
government minister in this country show this much intestinal fortitude
in standing up to her political bosses when she knows they are not
following the letter of the law. I have some serious objections to Jody
Wilson-Raybould, the former Minister of Justice, on other matters but I
have to acknowledge her courage in this instance.
You have no idea how it saddens me that her principled stubbornness is
as remarkable as it apparently is. (The idealistic part of me thinks
this is how the system should work every day and that it should be front
page news when it DOESN'T work that way. Instead, we have the reverse.)
Or maybe such principled behaviour is actually routine and this is one
of the rare cases where it became visible; I'd like it if that were true
but I'm skeptical.
