FORSETH -- Today was to have shed light on the entire situation – not that any of us expected it to happen – despite the best attempts of the NDP’s Charlie Angus, and Conservative Finance Critic Pierre Poilievre

This afternoon, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau came before the Finance Committee to answer questions about the #WECharity ... and the ensuing chaos that came about as a result of the government handing over nearly ONE BILLION DOLLARS ($900 million) to the WE Charity, before the contract was cancelled.

In the ensuing weeks, we have heard of multiple instances of the family of Justin Trudeau having various roles, and participating in events WE held ... and the same for the governments Finance Minister, Bill Morneau.

Today was to have shed light on the entire situation – not that any of us expected that would happen – despite the best attempts of the NDP’s Charlie Angus ... and the Conservative Finance Critic Pierre Poilievre.

I made seven comments as I watched the 90-minute exchange on the Canadian Parliamentary Channel (CPaC) ...

BEGINNING WITH ...

  1. OMG. the Finance Committee gas given #JustinTrudeau at least 10 minutes of "Boy our government is great" bullshit. #SkippyMustGo #cdnpoli

  2. Isn't #SkippyMustGo supposed to be explaining / apologizing for his extremely daft decision to use #WE given the direct involvement of his family? #cdnpoli

  3. Does #SkippyMustGo seriously expect us to believe he didn't know what hotel his wife stayed at, in London, for her appearance at a #WECharity event. I call LIE #cdnpoli

  4. I should have ... I didn’t ... I regret. Why is #JustinTrudeau always apologizing for his screw ups over and over again. #SkippyMustGo. #cdnpoli

  5. Just wondering why is it #JustinTrudeau wants to take responsible for all the good stuff to do with shoveling billions out in programs & grants. Not so much however when accountability has to be explained for screwups. You're responsible Justin & that's why #SkippyMustGo

  6. How much...how much ...I'm looking for a dollar figure? You haven't done an answer so far" ... says #PierrePoilievre. No surprise but #JustinTrudeau is not / will not answering :(


    AND ENDING WITH ...

  7. The House Finance Committee Chair says he is going to give #JustinTrudeau a chance to answer. Too bad that Trudeau refuses to answer any/all questions

 
Like I said, we were to get answer this afternoon, at least that's what we were informed would be happening -- that however, definitely did not happen.


PS ... I shouldn’t have used it, and so I apologize for my juvenile comment #SkippyMustGo

RCMP gag order comes after BC NDP catch heat for diverted safe supply (Northern Beat)

In the wake of several high-profile police drug seizures of suspected safer supply that put the BC NDP government on the defensive last month, BC RCMP “E” division issued a gag order on detachments, directing them to run all communications on “hot button” public safety issues through headquarters in the lead-up to the provincial election. “It is very clear we are in a pre-election time period and the topic of ‘public safety’ is very much an issue that governments and voters are discussing,” writes a senior RCMP communications official in an email dated Mar. 11 in what appears to have gone out to all BC RCMP detachments . . . .

KRUGELL: BC NDP turns its attention from BC United to BC Conservatives

The BC NDP turning its attention, from BC United, to BC Conservatives was reported over the weekend from a variety of sources. It is the result of the surge in the BC Conservative's polling numbers and the subsequent collapse of BC United. The NDP has largely ignored the BC Conservatives, instead they opt to talk about issues directly or attack their old foes BC United. Practical politics says that parties closer to the centre tend to ultimately prevail over the long haul. They do wane but often make comebacks. A good example is the federal Liberals going from third party to government in 2015. Centrism has a lot of appeal on voting day. The NDP shifting its fire from United to Conservative is a reflection of reality. BC United did buy advertising online and radio over the last few months. Did that shift the polls back to them? Nope. The reality is today, the BC Conservatives are the party of the Opposition, and day by day the Conservatives are looking like a party not ready to fig

PEATS: I am writing with a critical concern regarding the imminent closure of the Eljen Medical Clinic, a vital healthcare facility in our community

The following is a copy of a letter sent to me, which was sent to BC’s Minister of Health Adrian Dix. It is with regards to the impending closure of the Eljen Medical Clinic in Dawson Creek.   Dear Minister,   I am writing to you today with a critical concern regarding the imminent closure of the Eljen Medical Clinic, a vital healthcare facility in our community. The closure, scheduled for the summer of 2024, is a result of the utterly burdensome terms and conditions imposed by the bureaucratic Northern Health. As a result, Dawson Creek stands to lose four doctors who have made this city their home, and who wish to continue serving the people of our community.   The impending closure of the Eljen Medical Clinic is a significant blow to our city. Not only will it result in the loss of highly qualified and dedicated healthcare professionals, but it will also deprive thousands of Dawson Creek residents of access to their primary physicians. At a time when healthcare se
