Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

Looks like it runs in that family.
Too bad the English language doesn’t run in the family.
The Liberals pushed the public service to consider WE.
WE lobbied extensively, and were unregistered as lobbyists.
Morneau, Chagger, Trudeau and the Kleinburgers all lied in their testimony to the ethics committee.
Trudeau and Morneau families were paid by the charity.
Where is the RCMP in all of this?
WTF??
I was reading some of the other e-mails on the twitter (Rempel has been sending some out). I can’t get over how juvenile in style and tone are these e-mails. If I wrote like that at work, well, I wouldn’t have work.
Now you might call me out on being occasionally juvenile in tone and content on these comments and you might be right but fortunately I only represent my self, not my constituency or national portfolio.
Absolutely disgraceful. Is this how the senior management correspond with each other? This is not how intelligent adults speak to each other over the issue of giving away millions of my hard earned taxpayer dollars. This is a disgrace. These people earn six figure salaries and speak like an idiot 14 year old high school girls. No wonder the Ottawa public service fell over themselves fawning at Trudeaus arrival. I have even less respect for our Federal public service than before.
I know, right?
But, then again, they do have a snowboard instructor sitting at the head of the table.
OK, you mean a student molester, don’t you?
That’s because they are like idiot 14 year old high school girls. That’s been fairly obvious for a a while .
Like, whatevs.
(pronounces as “like (pause) what heifer”)
This e-mail statement said it all the Government and Trudeau were ALL complicit…DO WE NEED MORE…NO!!! The LIE-BRALS as the title said “Libranos”
I’ll concur with Blue Turtle.
It’s obvious the reason no one raised an eye or concern over conflict of interest is because they are all in conflict.
Issue comes to cabinet vote, everyone looks around and notices nobody else is raising an issue about conflict, in particular the sock monkey, and concludes this must have been cleared.
That, or the spectre of what happened to Jody is still fresh in their minds, so don’t rock the boat.
It also provides another angle on the “rift” between the sock monkey and Willy porno.
He likely got hauled into a meeting by the chief of staff, not the sock monkey he never does bad cop that takes balls, and told that if he had just kept his mouth shut about the $41000 cheque this $hit show would likely have blown over. I can believe it’s more likely his dismissal was for the same reason that the others got turfed. The malfeasance or perception is secondary, they embarrassed juthtin.
Too bad the Canadian Media has been prorogued until further government notice.
And for the last 5 years come to think of it.
Why is there nothing or nobody holding the Canadian Media to account?
Ever.
It is sorely needed.
What did the recently released WE documents actually show? According to the mainstream media, very little. But Matt Gurney cuts to the chase. The documents show that Trudeau and Morneau lied. The plan to hire WE did not originate in the federal bureaucracy. Rather, the plan was hatched by WE and Trudeau insiders and then the bureaucrats were instructed to implement it.
“The public service did indeed recommend WE. That is true. But WE was recommended after the Trudeau government — not just the public service, but cabinet ministers or their staff — was actively working with WE. The recommendation of the public service, though undenied, did not happen in a vacuum, nor was it generated neutrally. It took place against a backdrop of active lobbying by WE and communication about the matter at high levels of the Trudeau government.”

Bananada.
As a friend of mine living halfway around the world wrote me about the WE Liberals, even the Nigerians would be saying nice job. And he worked there for a couple years so no bull.
If this is the norm, YTF shouldn’t I start doing whatever I can to cheat the government out of taxes?
Why shouldn’t I bribe, cheat, lie and steal to reduce the amount I have to pay every thieving level of government?
Here in Ottawa we have the local pols led by Jimbo Closet Watson, a card-carrying Liberal. Think there isn’t backdoor shenanigans? Politically connected bridge work goes to a large contractor whose most famous board member is Dalton McGuilty. Named subs who meet the mandated criteria are suddenly replaced and the city caves like a sand castle for K-bec scammers whose safety record is a dirty limerick.
Want to build a 15 story building where only 10 is allowed? Present a 20 story and the province will approve the 15.
This whole place is so corrupt the rats fleeing the urban core to feast on the suburban veggies have paid off the local foxes to eat the prowling house cats and keep them safe.

I beat you to it. I’ve already earmarked my future tax liabilities to myself. What’s the worst they could do to me, once they catch up? I paid my taxes, to me. GST on all of it, too. If any of it was supposed to go to Nigeria et al outside the country with kickbacks to the T. Foundation….well, like they say in Russia….toughy shitsky.
Oh, forgot to mention…who is Rachel Wernick?
The name Wernick keeps popping up like a bad rash in all things scandal-enabling.
I can’t get beyond the quality of this e-mail to see the political rot therein.
Who wrote this? An eight year old?
It’s no wonder the government and its lackeys act like spoiled children. They write like them.
English-only website?!?!
In the bad old days, this would have been enough to not only disqualify the Brothers Twerpy, but would probably lead to a Royal Commission…
When I first read the newspaper headline, I thought “besties” was “beasties”. Never knew the word “besties”. Got it.
WE timorous beasties? Mayhaps.
If Kate was based in Scotland?
Wee Deed Beasties.
” WE timorous beasties? ”
Hah! I see what you did there (belatedly).
Brilliant.
How could a “professional” civil service work under the Spawn? This is a perfect fit – fawning partisan juveniles working for the Juvenile in Chief. Given the scope of provincial and local governments, 90% of what the federal government is involved in today is redundant and illegitimate. Charities imply by definition, freely donated money to a certain cause to help others. Charities funded by any government are no longer charities by the nature of being funded by the theft of taxpayers alive or unborn. We is clearly a thinly disguised tool of political indoctrination, welfare and vote buying. The corruption of the We scandal exists not only by the nature of the tendering or lack thereof but by the fact that the federal government has no business having anything to do with any “charities”.
Are we missing the best part of W.E?
For all the lying,there is a kernel of truth,even Trudeau sees the professional civil servants as USELESS.
Quite amazing really,after all the support,fart catching and active interference with the Harper Conservatives policies the swivel servants providedTrudeau and the Moron just threw them under the bus.
Imagine if we actually had reporters…
The Liberals actually despise the bureaus with greater passion than the Conservatives.
The blatant contempt they have for the institution and the people who “serve the public” is clearly demonstrated by this wee saga.
Yet the dopy government minions support the Liberals and NDP is an overwhelming majority.
Funny because the very compliance of the minions,ensures the destruction of their bureaus.
Obviously there is nothing professional nor nonpolitical about our “civil servants”
We have run that experiment,Big Government is useless and massively destructive of civil society.
So now we reduce the parasitic overload to less than 10% of real (nongovernment) GPD.
And no citizen shall be taxed more than 10% total.
If you’ve ever spent any time in Ottawa, you wouldn’t be surprised to see that the majority of female senior executives in the public service truly are vapid morons who achieved their positions because vagina. And a lot of those vapid stunts are toxic as f*ck – they drive out everyone with the slightest bit of competence. That email isn’t an exception, it’s the way the old girls club talk to each other. Nauseating.
