I mean the Govt. It's all snowballing. There are more sin taxes hitting soon.I think he means the voter's memory of the scandal won't make it to the end of winter not the gov'tand he's probably got a point.
Commissioner Lucki first told the inquiry that she briefed cabinet’s incident response group on Feb. 13 about her view on the Emergencies Act and the finalized police operations plan in Ottawa. But after commission counsel Gordon Cameron presented her with two different documents that showed she didn’t, she acknowledged she likely had not.

Those same notes detail a finalized plan to bring an end to the protests that had gridlocked downtown Ottawa. The notes say that Commissioner Lucki and Ontario Provincial Police Commissioner Thomas Carrique both supported the plan.
“Did it occur to you that you should make sure that government was aware of your views on these points before it came to land on the invocation of the Emergencies Act?,” Mr. Cameron asked Commissioner Lucki.
“I guess in hindsight, yeah, that might have been something significant,” she replied.
Whoopsies?

John Ivison: Beer taxes are enough to make you cry in your pint — if you could afford one — National Post
The Liberals' sneaky escalator provision will see taxes on a cold one rise by 6.3 per cent next spring
The cost increase is eye-popping enough, but what is truly galling is that the finance minister will be able to stand in the House of Commons and claim that the government has not imposed any new taxes on alcohol. Technically, that’s true. But that’s the iniquity of an escalator tax — it severs the link between an increase in taxation and ministerial responsibility.
Whoopsies? Again? Still?
There are no other taxes in Canada that rise automatically with inflation, and in her next budget Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland should kill the undemocratic beer tax escalator.
Vape tax hit right away, brewers just raised beer prices thanks to logistic costs which up's GST revenue.

The day before Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoked the Emergencies Act, his government was advised by Canada’s spy agency that the Freedom Convoy wasn’t a threat to national security and wasn’t under the sway of any foreign power.
Despite that document, tabled at the EA inquiry, Trudeau invoked the EA within hours of receiving the threat assessment by the Canadian Security Intelligence Service.

Obviously, the decision to invoke the EA was the responsibility of the Trudeau government, not CSIS or any other policing agency.

And that's become crystal clear during this inquiry. Further it's pretty clear that it was trudeau that was driving this. There's no way at this point the gov't can convincingly claim they had credible reason to believe that the convoy represented a threat to the country.
If it's anything like the 2500 other scandals TrueDope has been caught in, yes.
In terms of consequences for his overreach and oppression? Sure. Except it will hurt him personally on the international opinion circuit and he does care about that. I mean he'll be 'officially' a tyrant -wannabe at that point
Yep. The very worst that can happen is the judiciary says "You can't do that," and nullifies everything done under the EA.
True Dope will take a political hit. Will it matter? Who knows?
I don't think it will hurt him in any way. Most of those leaders are just like him.....Better than the peasants.In terms of consequences for his overreach and oppression? Sure.

Hoi polloi. Dash it all, there must be SOME way we can cut them out of the process entirely!
Think, man!
Without a doubt but they're also all fierce hypocrites who love to virtue signal by calling out people who just got caught for doing the same things they do but haven't been caught for
He took a hit when he first called for the act and he'll take another one now but in the long run it means nothing. HE'll still get to go on speaking tours for 30,000 dollars per appearance and have his nice fat pension which i believe starts at 50? So he already qualifies for it when he finally does give up politics. Between the two he'll rake in about 500-600 thousand dollars a year for doing basically nothing, and i'm sure that'll be some consolation It still amazes me as to how this blackface racist Trudeau can still be the dicktator of Canada? It just shows me that the liberals can do whatever they dam well please, and the phony Canadian media will back them up and let them off the hook. There are certain sets of rules for liberals, and then there are other certain sets of rules for conservatives.

The Trudeau cabinet was fully briefed ahead of invoking the Emergencies Act that there was no threat to national security, as required by the law. That assessment came from the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), the agency tasked with making such assessments.
Sec. 2 of the CSIS Act spells out the criteria of a threat, including espionage or sabotage, foreign influenced activities, the use or threat of violence for political goals and using unlawful acts to overthrow the government. CSIS examined the situation and didn’t find anything happening that met the legal threshold, including foreign donations made online to support the convoy.

Covid was all just bullshit. Climate change is all just bullshit. The truckers being considered terrorist is all more bullshit. We have a big problem in this country. We have politicians and the media that like and enjoy lying to we the peasants. If it does not fit their lefty liberal narrative, then it must meet and be treated and defined as terrorism or racism. Sadly, there are way too many dolt peasants out there that will believe their lies and bullshit.

The dictator in Ottawa knows that he will not face any consequences for his actions and knows that he can buffoon most Canadians all the time and get away with it. This dicktator laughs at Canadians every day and gets away with it thanks to those lefty liberals here who see the turd as god's gift to Canada.
So then, how do would know that she was a lesbian? Was she carrying a pro lesbo sign? Just wondering.
So true. Most Canadians will forget what even happened to them yesterday. Nobody really gives a crap. And those same Canadians would probably vote back in the Marxist arse hole. I know that most Canadians do not give a shit because no one I know or casually talk too ever talks about it. Our politicians could turn Canada communist tomorrow and most Canadian will just shrug their shoulders and say so what. Communism must be better than conservatism. Phkn bone heads.
