Justin Trudeau Is a Scumbag

But don't take my word for it:

Canada has received a small fraction of pandemic supplies it’s ordered from China and must check every shipment for shoddy goods, says the Department of Public Works. Inspections take days at a time after thousands of coronavirus test kit swabs were found contaminated with mold, the Commons health committee was told: “How is that possible?”

(Sidebar: yes, Trudeau has ordered supplies from his most admired basic dictatorship, China, a country whose supplies have either been defective or contaminated with mold.)

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau pushed back Thursday against allegations levied by the opposition that he is afraid of resuming debate in Parliament.

Trudeau said Thursday he believes in the role of Parliament, now more than ever.

"Our democracy is healthy and I know that our institutions must continue to function not in spite of the crisis but because of the crisis," he said.

Is that so?:
In response to the coronavirus pandemic, the federal Liberals are poised to table a bill granting them sweeping new powers to spend money and raise taxes without having to get the approval of Parliament.

And while the ability to impose taxes unilaterally and without parliamentary approval was removed from the original legislation, the government still has the unilateral ability to borrow. Government borrowing today leads to the need to tax tomorrow. Put simply, the government now has the power to control the budget by increasing indebtedness, thereby increasing the need to pass new taxes in the future.

Do we need to talk about surveillance and censorship or is that beating a dead horse?


How long are people to remain in their homes? Long after the Americans re-emerge from theirs?


Also - soldiers. With guns. In our streets:

He says the two governments are working on a response, which could involve the Canadian Red Cross, military or volunteers.

“We are examining the best way to help Quebec in these difficult times,” said Trudeau.

(Sidebar: yes, do help Quebec. Other provinces are fine without your "help". You are "non-essential".)


Get people used to the idea of martial law, eh, Justin?
