If I were Butts & PM I, for one, would invite JWR back into the Liberal fold & caucus. As PM I would then tell Canadians that I made a huge mistake in letter her go. I would also appoint her Deputy PM and I would urge Liberals to vote her in as party leader at the end of my term.
Never going to happen. Despite the way he treated her and the allegations of what the PMO and the rest did, he still got re-elected. Getting re-elected despite all that (and all the other stuff) is proof to him that he doesn’t have anything he needs to apologize for…anymore.
I’ve got to take this one apart piece by piece: JWR won’t return to the Liberal fold because it would make Trudeau look now, or confirm that he was an idiot throughout; Justin’s ego and excessive pride will never allow him to admit even the most minor of mistakes on the SNC file; Freeland has the show job and it would be beyond awkward to have her relinquish it; finally, a current or immediately former party leader can’t show partiality in a leadership race underway to choose his or her successor. Simply can’t be done under any circumstances.
Damn right he did. Same exact result as a deferred prosecution. Much todo about nothing. In fact, a deferred prosecution would have been more transparent.
JWR sent me a new 2020 desk calendar today; the last one has proven pretty handy, so it was a pleasant surprise. I noticed one odd thing, though: while this calendar, unsurprisingly, makes no mention of the Liberal Party, *neither did the previous one*.
Did she somehow know that she had no future in the Liberal Party?

And to top it off, SNC pleaded guilty to one count of fraud today.

That’s what I would do if I were in the PMO.

I doubt his fart catchers would agree…..but you are correct.

Referring to SNC, did Trudeau just get “a deferred prosecution agreement” or its equivalent?
I do applaud JWR for standing up for what she thought was right, but looks like Trudeau got what he wanted.

Joe,
It’s up to the AG to decide that. No decision as of yet.
