5. When asked why he did not just leave JWR in cabinet when she refused the Indian Affairs position Trudeau fudged.

Everyone heard the answer he gave. He had no answer.

it's properly called the Indigenous Services ministry. Butts gave the answer in yesterday's testimony. With Philpott moved to the Treasury Board, it (Indigenous Services) still needed to be filled.

Wilson-Raybould could have effected change in Indigenous Services, leaders say

same challenge to you: provide example(s) of an MP/MPP refusing a cabinet position reassignment as a part of a shuffle - any government - yes?

so again, Seamus O'Regan moved to fill vacated Indigenous Services position... need to now fill O'Regan's vacated Veterans Affairs position... see JWR accepting this move... well, accepting it until... the pressure burst forth!!! And again, per Butts, there was no want to set a precedent that a Minister could refuse a cabinet reassignment.

16,000 jobs inclusive of direct employees (~4000 in Quebec, ~5000 across the rest of Canada), support and supply-chain personnel... a risk & impact consideration; certainly a matter of public interest. If you wrestle yourself away from your GishGalloping, provide a cite that states public interest is not a consideration when evaluating whether a remediation agreement could be offered.

The question that needs to be asked is, "Is Waldo on the payroll of the Liberal Party of Canada?"

Trudeau worked longer than Scheer did as an insurance salesman. 

Scheer was an MP at 25.

I am no fan of Scheer.

why would you purposely omit/negate the 8 years of experience as an Opposition MP (with 2 of those as Liberal Party leader)..

Opposition MP can legitimately be considered a fake job. When one gets paid to oppose the ruling party, he is in no way, shape, or form, contributing to society.  All Trudeau was doing was receiving a big fat paycheck. The same could be applied to most politicians.

Liberal MP Celina Caesar-Chavannes announced last week that she won't seek re-election.

This was her response today to Trudeau's speech.



Sounds like another unhappy camper.

Meanwhile the Public Prosecution Service is now on Twitter. Their very first tweet was yesterday! They're tweeting like crazy and are now all the way up to 5 tweets! Imagine!

This was tweet #4.

She had nothing to do with this whole affair as far as I know.  I can't remember MP's going after their own leader like this, this is wild.

I suspect she had a different problem. She is one of those bigots that insists in belittling people based on their race. Trudeau probably told her to dial it back and she was not happy about it. I remember reading her comments earlier this week where she complained she did not like having to limit what she says.

Today Trudeau said we didn't pressure JWR, but she saw it differently.  Everyone has different leadership styles.  It's all one big misunderstanding!

And it's all a "he said, she said" deal and in the absence of anything more revealing, such as emails etc., in two weeks time it will be in the rearview mirror.

I found this interesting:  https://twitter.com/AOC/status/1101867429901279232

After JWR spoke to the committee during Trudeau's response he had a bunch of black people and women surrounding him in the background, I guess to show he's, like, not sexist racist or something???  This kind of thing makes me puke.

And before you puke, are you somehow suggesting he is racist or sexist? Your comments seem to suggest so.

Well now how did a more qualified MP originally get passed over for the Justice/AG job for a less qualified MP a few years ago?  Oh wait the white male didn't have an aboriginal ****.  Brison is gone, time to fill that white male quota!

JT is a sexist, a racist, and now a crooked lying bully.  Good to know!

way to hunt that down! ;D The waldo suggests you check Ms.Caesar-Chavannes out a tad... it's a shame - she coulda been a contender! Considering she's 40+, she failed to show maturity on so many levels... self-described "fiery... uncensored... so public with claims of being subjected to so many microaggressions on the Hill  :o" I'd think the months long twitter feud with Maxine Bernier might have been the proverbial 'last straw'. Almost as wild as member Pooner's over-the-top posts and hyperbole... almost!
