@HuffPost @althiaraj @darrellbricker Trudeau asked which nation he admired most

"There's a level of admiration I actually have for China. Their basic dictatorship is actually allowing them to turn their economy around on a dime."

1/9 #CDNpoli

It's been brought to my attention that a small handful of #NDP propagandists are attempting to discredit my #SNCLavalin - #IndigenousDirective timeline RE Jody Wilson-Raybould, Jane Philpott, PMJT, etc, to other #CDNmedia journalists
2/9 #CDNpoli

Please let it be known, without a shadow of a doubt

#NDP Leader, Jagmeet Singh, did in fact speak with the CEO of #SNCLavalin about a DPA

So did the NDP's MP for Sherbrooke, Québec, Pierre-Luc Dusseault

The record ► lobbycanada.gc.ca/app/secure/ocl…

And a screencap
3/9 #CDNpoli

It's disappointing the #NDP would add to #SNCLavalinScandal by attempting to mislead #CDNmedia & #Elxn43 voters

If they're interested to learn the facts, here is everyone #SNCLavalin lobbied for a deferred prosecution agreement (aka #DPA)

1/25 #THREAD On the #ethics of Jody Wilson-Raybould recording a convo with Michael Wernick RE #SNCLavalin

Read further to debunk the #CDNmedia & partisan spin + public's grasp of #CDNpoli #CDNlaw that's circulating social media

(Ex. of that mythology)
2/25 #SNCLavalin #CDNpoli #CDNlaw #Ethics

It's not possible for pundits & partisan actors to have their cake & eat it too

Due to the barrage of biased misinformation about Jody Wilson-Raybould's role as attorney general vs justice minister, it's necessary to explain the basics
3/25 If Jody Wilson-Raybould assumed the role of solicitor to the govt in this #SNCLavalin matter, it wouldn't be unethical to record her calls w clients & witnesses #CDNpoli

This is standard practice in #CDNlaw, so lawyers don't forget details & properly document billable hours

1/ A question for the constitutional scholars out there. The Shawcross Principle is clear that the AG is (1) not obliged to consult colleagues about a decision to prosecute or not;(2) not to be told what decision to make; and (3) not to be put under pressure regarding a decision.
2/ The text of the Shawcross Principle also states that an AG would be a “fool” not to consult with his colleagues about certain decisions to prosecute or not. So here is the question: you are the AG’s boss, and you see the AG not consult as robustly as you believe they should...
3/ ... so you remove them from the position of AG because you believe they’ve been “foolish” — have you violated the Shawcross Principle?

Well look at this. As Trudeau's career shows signs of biting the dust, Canadians and Americans are starting to agree about things, again. 👍🤣 #TrudeauMustResign #SNCLavalinScandal

Just finished watching #JodyWilsonRaybould @Puglaas full testimony. If you have not watched the full video, I highly recommend it. Some reflections on this and the #SNCLavalinScandal..
1. #JodyWilsonRaybould is incredibly articulate, clearly very competent and operated in her role with the highest of integrity. It is a huge loss for this country that she is no longer the Attorney General as a result of politics. #cdnpoli
2. It is clear the bottom line here for Trudeau and the Liberal Party is power. The votes in Quebec and the upcoming election were what mattered, and it seemed the law was considered an obstacle. What I wonder is how often this type of thing happens and we don’t hear about it.

NOT SHOCKING (ethics violations).

Trudeau PMO interfering in criminal prosecutions pressuring Attorney General to abandon criminal prosecution of his cronies. When she refused Trudeau fired her. Now he's denying it!

Times' Up Trudeau - Criminal investigation NOW. #cdnpoli
WATCH Trudeau lie to the nation & how easily he does so.

🇨🇦journalist @ezralevant (regularly vilified by Trudeau govt & state media CBC) points to system flaws:

Attorney General "duty of confidentiality to client" Only Trudeau himself can waive!!

NEVER AGAIN Canada

#cdnpoli
🇨🇦 Parliament: Trudeau Government grilled re PMO interference in criminal prosecution at highest level.

Smirking sheepishly, refusing to answer question. Believe themselves above law & untouchable

NOT ONE HAS CROSSED THE FLOOR.
