Trudeau is the most feminist prime minister in Canadian history, and that fake scandal had nothing to do with his treatment of women. Our shabby shuffling Con media set out to destroy Trudeau, their behaviour was appalling, and they will live in infamy forever....Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-5172912671611649592019-12-21T09:21:44.603-05:002019-12-21T09:21:44.603-05:00Hi anon@ 10:42 PM....if you don't like DPAs bl...Hi anon@ 10:42 PM....if you don't like DPAs blame St Jody. And the fact is they can be a useful legal tool by providing more transparency than a regular prosecution. In this case the final result was the same as if a DPA had been involved. SNC Lavalin would have suffered damage to its reputation either way, but at least its innocent employees haven't had to pay for the crimes of othersSimonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-670997002448598012019-12-21T09:03:17.818-05:002019-12-21T09:03:17.818-05:00Hi anon....yes, she does have an enormous ego.

I believe a DPA which included the whole company would have stood a better chance of routing out corruption if the political parties rallied together and ensured the people responsible for administration were really and truly interested in protecting the public.

She had the legal option of the DPA yet decided to risk thousands of jobs for what?<br />Well, I hope her "new" office is below a tap dancing studio and her public washroom is next to a burrito stand. A deserving reminder to our Newsbaker of the Year that what goes around comes around and it's her reputation and "some editors" that lay in tatters, not JT's.<br />JDAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-72851155588219903732019-12-19T22:42:58.479-05:002019-12-19T22:42:58.479-05:00Anyone who says a plea deal is not significantly d...Anyone who says a plea deal is not significantly different from a DPA doesn't know what they're talking about. Regardless of how the company tries to spin this, the plea deal saw SNC Lavalin found guilty of fraud in criminal court. The corporation is now a criminal company.<br /><br />Lavalin didn't spend millions lobbying the Libs to rewrite Canadian criminal law for this result. It wanted a sweetheart deal that would allow it to deny criminal wrongdoing to its shareholders and customers. It wanted to hide its criminality from public view and blame its fraud on a couple of rogue employees. Lavalin almost got away with it too, thanks to its Liberal friends in high places. DPAs are a terrible idea and serve only to protect corporate criminals. Now we're stuck with them and you can be sure other criminals are waiting to take advantage.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-17393632713787143292019-12-19T21:05:33.378-05:002019-12-19T21:05:33.378-05:00Yes nobody seems to care about the real issue of S...Yes nobody seems to care about the real issue of SNC's convoluted behavior of acting like Jekyll and Hyde. On one hand they are a large capable global Canadian based engineering firm while on the other they sometimes act like a second rate scammer oiling political wheels with mega kickbacks. Either way the public pays in higher taxes to fund bribery costs or shortcuts resulting in misery. The past is done but surely the public should be a little concerned that thanks to Harper SNC is deep into Canadian nuclear power generation and waste disposal. Nope its all about the political points associated with scandal/non scandal and not about the detailed remediation measures including politically independent oversight that should be taken to ensure SNC has turned the page on their past. Instead its all about 'Trudeau bad' , 'Jody&Cons good' now lets turn the page until a radioactive Jekyll emerges sometime in the future.<br /><br />RTAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-50559931089338557802019-12-19T20:50:29.456-05:002019-12-19T20:50:29.456-05:00What a fraud JWR is, a self promoter who thinks sh...What a fraud JWR is, a self promoter who thinks she's the smartest person on Parliamnt Hill.

The relentless media blitz poisoning the well of public opinion is what cost him his majority. Not his "actions." Her tantrum. The wicked witch of the west with a capital B will get karma someday, and when she does she will deserve it. I just hope Justin can rebuild his image over the next couple of years and come back to win again over what is looking like a formidable and radicalized Con field that smells blood in the water.
