Canada's Pretty-Face Leader to Face the Chop?

Loyalty is a basic ingredient of party politics, and the long domination of Canadian politics by the Liberals Party of Canada reflects the party's tradition of strict party discipline.

Thus, as former Prime Minister Jean Chrétien said when his leadership was questioned by the Liberal rank and file, "I am the Leader. What can they do?" To which question the answer is nothing — so long as the Liberals lead in the polls.

But when the polls turn, or an election is lost, Liberals make short shrift of the leader. Thus of Liberal leaders past, the last three, Martin, Dion, and Ignatieff, all were gone within months of an election loss.

Now, seven months before an election, the polls have turned against Trudeau. What to do? Boot the pretty boy for someone able to think their way out of a paper bag.

The technical grounds for a prime ministerial defenestration are today once again concisely set forth by Andrew Coyne. The truly sordid, indeed grossly evil, character of those whose actions have brought Justin Trudeau to a deserved final public appearance on the scaffold are set forth in this National Observer article, accessible today without a subscription by way of Bourque.org.

And

A further aggravating circumstance is that this was not a classic case of pure bribery. SNC knowingly enabled and overlooked monstrous tyranny and abuse. The company cannot pretend it was unaware of Gaddafi's vicious cruelty while expensing his son Saadi Gaddafi's prostitutes, lavish lifestyle, and showering him with millions of dollars a year. The company financed his soccer aspirations and sponsored his team despite widespread reports that, just a few years earlier, his bodyguards had opened fire on soccer fans for booing a referee favouring him. Between 20 and 50 were killed in the ensuing chaos.Then there was Bashir al-Rayani, a professional soccer coach who challenged Saadi Gaddafi in 2005, only to disappear shortly before his bludgeoned body was dumped near his home. According to witnesses, al-Rayani was last seen alive at Gaddafi's seaside villa. And still, the reported gusher of cash to Saadi from SNC-Lavalin never stopped. After the revolution, Saadi Gaddafi was charged with this murder, but acquitted at trial in 2018. From the Lockerbie bombing of the 80’s, to the prison massacres, the disappearances, the tortures and football killings, the systemic rape of young girls in the 2000’s, the blood trickled down through the decades, even through its brief years of Western “rehabilitation” after 9/11.

And why has Trudeau risked everything for SNC? 

According to bourque: 

SNC-LAVALIN IS LOOKING TO LAND A BIG DEAL

A deal that would be impossible for a company either convicted or on trial for bribery and corruption. And what's in it for Trudeau. LOL. Corruption is as Canadian as maple syrup, and the Trudeau Foundation is always open for donations.

While Trudeau Tries Selling Canadians on the Virtues of Corruption, Five Former Attorney's General Call for a Police Investigation

Justin Trudeau and his palace guard have repeatedly claimed that prosecuting Québec-based engineering firm SNC Lavelin for bribery and corruption (including according to press accounts, the provision of whores, nude dancers, pornography and airline tickets for the delectation of Saadi Gadhafi, son of murdered Libyan dictator, Muammar Gaddafi) is contrary to the public interest, since it would, um, well discourage SNC Lavalin from engaging in similar bribery and corruption when seeking further work abroad.

SNC-Lavalin paid for the debauchery of Gaddafi's son while in Canada The Londoner: A report by Montreal’s La Presse newspaper says that SNC-Lavalin allegedly paid for a sex-filled trip across Canada for the son of the late Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi. “Naked dancers, porn movies and many, many, many prostitutes,” the story states.

The argument is that without the bribes, jobs would be lost. But whose jobs? Mostly, SNC Lavalin operates abroad and of those it employs abroad few are actually Canadian. So why should Canadians care?

Then there's the sob story from the Prime Minister's supporters about the poor suffering share-holders of SNC, poor sods, for whom not buying prostitutes for the worthless progeny of foreign dictators would mean lesser returns on their investment. What's more, failing to satisfy the apparently gross appetite of the likes of Saadi Gaddafi no doubt hurts the domestic white slave trade. 

So, no, let corruption blossom.

Except, might not their heretofore reputation for stainless integrity be of value to Canadian firms seeking government contracts in at least a few countries? Are there no ruling elites that wish to uphold a reputation for honest dealing? In which case, isn't the prosecution of SNC Lavalin for bribery and corruption abroad a net positive for Canada?

So, apparently, some former Canadian Attorneys General seem to think. Indeed they're calling the cops on Trudeau.
