I had to back it up and replay what John Mraz said about Justin:
“I don’t know how far whose hands has gone up his ass but we are going to see fingers out of his throat any second now”
You’re welcome.
Martin,
Nope. Trudeau Liberals have all the spine of a wilted lily. Next.
Those with spines become disgusted and simply leave. Three cabinet members and counting.
The Menzingers-Counting Crows on speed.
I don’t think the flip flop will work. Justin is not Ford. And we have yet another ridiculous groupie who could lose her seat making things worse everywhere else:

Her fellow Newfoundlander, Ken McDonald, who has been pushing for this for a year, when asked on P and P if he would cross the floor said-“not at this time”. So, he is not even sold.
Gudie interview. What a piece of work:

No indication if Justin will be in the house tomorrow yet.
Justin chickening out again tomorrow:

Flip flop: this government is in panic mode. Directionless.
Ken McDonald, on the possibility of crossing the floor: “not at this time”. Which means he’s leaving the door open.
Liberal and even BQ (soft nationalists) who are entertaining the thoughts of joining the Conservatives?
I suspect so. If and when the first crossing happens, look for more MPs to follow. At which point, this Parliament is kaput.
Douglas,
I’ll believe a BQ crosser when I see it.
Knew that would get your attention. LOL
Ken McDonald literally and figuratively just gave the finger(with the Bloc) to the rest of the country on the carbon tax vote. He isn’t crossing the floor any time soon.

If a politician wants to cross the floor the should first resign their seat, and then run for nomination in their chosen party –
Like Jagmeet Singh?
Joe,
Jagmeet would make a perfect Liberal…
One of the weasel coalition members(Blaikie) stood up with a point of order yesterday complaining like a whiny baby because the opposition was asking questions of some NDP member about the carbon tax break. Hey Danny, you are part of the government. And then, right on cue, his fellow weasel, Mark Gerritsen, stood up in his defense which kind of defeated the point that Danny was making.
But you are good with the axis of weasels? Please. Under any normal circumstances, Justin would be history by now. Crossing the floor is the ONLY way to get rid of this joke of a coalition that NO ONE voted for. And these weasels keep shutting down investigations.
Curious V,
Like Copps did.
Exactly Ronald.
Warren,
We already knew that the UN General Assembly was explicitly anti-Zionist. Now they have proven themselves to be at least implicitly antisemitic.
I see that Melanie Joly wants a cease fire in Gaza.
This would allow Hamas to fire its rockets in peace.
I’m not a big fan of Hillary Clinton. But here I agree:

Is that what she was babbling about at the Economic Club today? Saw her speaking but turned the sound down. Is that some sort of serious organization?
Justin jumps the shark?

What made me vomit was this passage from the article: “Gerald Butts, Trudeau’s former principle private secretary, once said that what he admired about the Prime Minister was that “he wanted to win with integrity, or lose.”
I suspect Team Trudeau (with Jagmeet’s help?) have redefined the definition of integrity.
That quote is hilarious. Butts used the X changes to get off Twitter but suspect he was seeing the internal polls. Justin has spent the last 4 days trying to figure how to handle QP and will make his customary 10 minute appearance today:

Benjamin Netanyahu needs to resign.
Another poorly thought out initiative I have complained about on this site. They extended the deadline only hours before the forms were due.

Warren,
Hum. Ivanka is not a party in the case and yet she’s moving heaven and earth NOT to testify. I would call that highly significant, if not a revelation. It speaks volumes doesn’t it. (My smile just got loads wider.)
The more I see these trials piling up, the more I’m well on my way to a fantasy record orgasm! LOL. Gleason was right.
Justin put in a tough 8 minutes today at QP and things got interesting right after:
