The cesspool of romancing Jihad.
Four years ago, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) officially leveled corruption and fraud charges against Montreal engineering firm SNC-Lavalin, over alleged criminal acts that occurred while that firm was doing business in Libya. The Globe and Mail broke the biggest scandal since Canada’s Adscam scandal, which cost the Liberals dearly in election year 2006. This latest scandal, also breaking in an election year, has to do with the involvement of Justin Trudeau and the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) in the SNC-Lavalin case.
SNC-Lavalin operates in a variety of sectors globally, including mining and metallurgy, oil and gas, and the fraud and corruption charges against it include nearly $48 million in payments made to Libyan government officials between 2001 and 2011.
The case centers around Liberal MP Jody Wilson-Raybould (JWR), who served as Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada from 2015 until January 2019. She was then demoted in a cabinet shuffle to the position of Minister of Veterans Affairs, and suddenly resigned several days ago (February 12) following the Globe and Mail report, which alleged that the PMO “attempted to press” her to intervene in the corruption and fraud prosecution of SNC-Lavalin in her role as Attorney General, in order to spare the engineering giant — deemed to be a crown jewel in Quebec — from criminal prosecution. The story also indicated that she “came under heavy pressure.”
Now the Commons Justice Committee will look into whether JWR was subjected to any kind of pressure from Trudeau and/or the PMO. Meanwhile, Trudeau’s principal secretary, Gerald Butts, has suddenly quit. Butts is Trudeau’s longtime friend, confidante and confidence booster, and some even say that Butts is his brains. Trudeau calls Butts “the core of his inner circle.” The resignation was over the SNC affair. Criminal charges could also be laid against members of the PMO for obstruction of justice, if its interference is established.
Doing Business with a Jihadist Government:
There is another twist in the criminal case involving SNC Lavalin, and the alleged involvement by Justin Trudeau and the PMO: Libya. MORE
It’s like having Jeff Spicoli as PM….’eatin’ pizza, learnin’ ’bout Libya’.
“Butts is his brains.” Explains a lot.
The foppish Trudeau is nothing more than a sock puppet for a guy named Butts. Good luck Canada!
A country run by Beavis and Buttshead…
Silly! Liberals don’t have scandals! Just ask the media, THEY’LL tell you!
…or WON’T tell you, as the case may be…
It isn’t unusual to give bribes to some officials when these large companies do business overseas but this is so out of hand. Many Canadians already can’t stand Trudeau. He has imposed a huge carbon tax that hikes their heating bills and the cost to run vehicles and is an embarrassment.
This may just topple him.
From a different article: “Polls showed that Canadians cheered when their prime minister announced this summer that Canada would not be pushed around by President Trump.” Really? But you’ll let yourself be pushed around by SNC and Islam? You made your bed and I hope the RCMP pull up the covers.
I always get Jussie mixed up with Justine! Which one is which, EH?
Trudeau is alexandra cortez.
How do you like her, canada?
Trudeau is like obama. untouchable. The liberals in montreal and quebec love him.
Unfortunately, the PM is an ass. He is a pretty ass, and that along with his name recognition got him elected.
The next unfortunate fact is that many of those same people who elected him won’t be the ones paying attention to the news, but again vote on pretty and name.
The majority of the people may vote in a conservative, but that isn’t what it means in the US, as the whole country is socialist.
And the election is only 8 months away. The Conservative Party needs to keep this alive and bleeding.
