As a partisan hack who has
never voted liberal, this train wreck has been hard to watch even for
me. OMG, how inept is this government?
David Amos
@Mike Hawke Welcome to the Circus
David Amos
@Mike Hawke Trust that Gerald
Butts, Andrew Scheer and everyone else who sits in opposition know that
Jody Wilson-Raybould may have lost her mandate as Justice Minister
because of her failings in Federal Court and the Federal Court of Appeal
within my lawsuit against the Crown that was filed when Harper was the
Prime Minister and Mr Scheer was the Speaker. Need I say that it
irritated me big time when Jody appointed her Deputy Minister to the
bench of Federal Court not long after I argued their minions in the
Federal Court of Appeal?
Methinks anyone can check my work by simply Googling two names "Jody Wilson-Raybould David Raymond Amos" N'esy Pas?

@Mike Hawke Methinks truth is
stranger than fiction and anyone can easily Google "David Amos Federal
Court file No." in order to sort out the truth from fiction for
themselves. Its blatantly obvious that Mr Trudeau had a duty to talk to
Harper's Minister of justice and Peter MacKay and had them pay
particular attention to info found within statement 83 of my lawsuit
long before the election in October of 2015
Everybody knows why I am about to put the aforementioned matter before the Supreme Court and file several more lawsuits in the Federal Court against the RCMP and the CRA etc and also run for a seat in Parliament again N'esy Pas?

Childish, bullies, personal attacks, smears and sneers, outright lies, character assassinations...... over and over and over.
It’s how the Cons disposed of Dion and Ignatieff. They have much more sophisticated social media manipulation techniques to knock off Trudeau, and lots of foreign money to help them do it. But he’s still standing.

The opposition, media critics and you folks have been screaming for JWR to appear before the Commons committee, and now she will. The Harper Cons would NEVER have allowed this to happen; their record is one of shutting down committees whenever they got to uppity, e.g., on Afghan detainees, fighter jets, crime.
Instead of obstructing House of Commons committees, the Trudeau Libs have empowered them. They actually prohibit Parliamentary secretaries from voting. It’s one of dozens and dozens of ways they are restoring democracy due to the real train wreck, which was the Harper government.

@Paulina Tangay
There is no way that any vaguely informed Canadian, liberal or conservative, believes:
a) the Duffy Affair, contempt of parliament, the F35 procurement, etc. were all “insignificant” compared to this; and
b) 3 1/2 years was a long time ago.

Nanos has been the most accurate federal,pollster at the federal level for over a decade now. It predicted the Lib victory in 2015 while most
other pollsters floundered. Its methodology is superior, including use of the good old telephone with live agents, which is less susceptible to manipulation than Internet polls.

practically a member of the Liberal government. Ever read his tweets?
He is as partisan a Liberal as you are. In such situations as these,
where other pollsters show a negative change, Nanos lags behind until
they can't possibly show such ridiculous numbers any more. Wait for it

Then again, she doesn't really have to. Actions always speak louder than words, and the fact Trudeau has had two cabinet ministers and his closest aide resign this month says plenty.

Huh? It’s already been stated many times that there have been vigorous discussions about SNC Lavelin and a possible DPA in Cabinet, so of course some Ministers believe it’s appropriate as do many outside experts. It’s also been stated by the PM himself that it was JWR’s decision to make and, when resigning, Butts insisted again their was no undue improper pressure brought to bear on JWR by him or anyone in the PMO.
Those are the government statements “on trial.” The opposition and media critics have been screaming obstruction of Justice and cover up. We’ll see.

2. Engaged legal counsel to determine what she can and/or cannot say?
3. Reportedly asked to speak to cabinet, when is no longer a member thereof?
4. Wrote a resignation letter that specifically addressed speaking “truth to power”
All very confusing if there was no pressure exerted on her?

Wilson-Raybould to testify in parliamentary probe of SNC-Lavalin scandal
Former justice minister, bound by client-solicitor privilege, says she is still consulting with lawyer
Former justice minister and attorney general Jody Wilson-Raybould will be called to testify at a parliamentary committee probing the SNC-Lavalin scandal — but it's not yet clear how much she'll be able to reveal publicly because she's still bound by client-solicitor privilege.
Wilson-Raybould said today she is consulting with her lawyer about what she can and can't say, and his guidelines also will apply to her appearance before the Commons justice committee.
"I will appear, but as I said, I'm still in discussions with my counsel about the various privileges and confidences that I have," she said.
Wilson-Raybould resigned from the Liberal cabinet last week — but emerged from the cabinet room Tuesday afternoon after addressing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his ministers. Standing at the centre of a scandal engulfing the government, she conceded the situation is complex.
"The rules and laws around privilege, around confidentiality, around my responsibility as a member of Parliament, my ethical and professional responsibilities as a lawyer are layered and incredibly complicated. So I'm still working with my lawyer," she said.
A DPA — a legal measure similar to a plea deal — would have allowed the Quebec-based multinational engineering firm to avoid prosecution on bribery and fraud charges in relation to contracts in Libya.
Politics News
Wilson Raybould speaks to CBC News at she leaves Question Period
Jody Wilson-Raybould leaves Question Period and is asked questions by the CBC's Chris Rands 2:39
Facing mounting pressure from opposition critics to waive client-solicitor privilege, Trudeau today would say only that he asked his new Justice Minister David Lametti to review the situation and provide him with advice.
Trudeau also said Wilson-Raybould made the request to address cabinet today, but would not divulge any details of what she said.
Wilson-Raybould was demoted to the Veterans Affairs portfolio earlier this month; she resigned cabinet last week, just days after the Globe and Mail reported that she was pressured to intervene in the SNC-Lavalin case.
Wilson-Raybould said today she remains a Liberal MP.
Trudeau has denied any wrongdoing, as has his former top aide Gerry Butts, who resigned Monday in a bombshell announcement.
I have given notice of motion at the justice committee to invite the Hon. Jody Wilson-Raybould to appear before the committee.
Wilson-Raybould has retained retired Supreme Court justice Thomas Cromwell and has maintained she is limited in what she can say due to solicitor-client privilege. As the former attorney-general, Wilson-Raybould acted as the government's top lawyer.
