Exclamation OH OH CANADA!

Not to be out done by PM Theresa May or President Donald Trump, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau tries to keep up. A major scandal is brewing for our boy prince.

Quote:
Former Canadian Attorney General Jody Wilson-Raybould testified before the House Justice Committee alleging that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and others in his administration pressured her in “inappropriate” ways to reach a settlement with an engineering company that has been charged with crimes.
Quote:
In January, Wilson-Raybould was relieved of her duties as attorney general and given a lesser cabinet position. Then this month, she suddenly stepped down from the cabinet entirely. Also stepping down was Gerald Butts, a long time Trudeau political adviser heavily involved with Lavalin situation.

Oh oh indeed. Jody Wilson-Raybould was highly touted by Trudeau for Canada's top lawyer as a woman and as a First Nations descendant. After her 'demotion', (Trudeau called it a Cabinet shuffle) from Minister of Justice and Attorney General to Veterans Affairs she resigned from the Cabinet a month later.

Quote:
Justin Trudeau is often viewed in both Canada and The United States as a kind of anti-Trump. Young, nice looking, liberal, the son of a former prime minister, and sufficiently woke in all the right ways, he has a hero status for some. It is remarkable that all of a sudden it is Trudeau, not Trump, who may be taken down by corruption.
The next Canadian federal election has to be before October 21 2019. Should be interesting.
