  1. This should be all over the news. It would be if it happened in the Harper government. As always, media covers for the Liberals. Media is helping to destroy the country.

    1. Well that $600 million has proved a “good investment” for the Liberals after all.

    2. The Media ARE the enemy of the people. If ever there was a country that needed a free and honest Media, a Media that could hold the Government to account, its Turdholeland. Unfortunately Turdholeland, formerly Canada, is as corrupt as any third world french colonial shithole.

      1. The infrastructure projects don’t disappear because they never existed, just money vanishes.

  2. “Is it possible for an infrastructure project etc. etc. Of course it is. The Italians do it all the time.

    1. And people said her move to the money distribution department was a demotion. I told you it was the most very important department in a Liberal government. Maybe you all understand now.

        1. We already gave a trust fund kid the national wallet, twice now. He just gave a trust fund friend all the credit cards!

  3. What’s it going to take to convince Poilievre to run for the CPC? The current slate of dull as dishwater candidates isn’t cutting it for me.

      1. I was SO disappointed when Poilievre decided not to run for the CPC leadership. I would have been out there beating the drum to get him the post. As it is, I wouldn’t give that pseudo-Conservative poseur MacKay the time of day. O’Toole, IMO, won’t be able to overcome the MacKay bandwagon and the remaining two are fringe players. I want a new country.

        1. Thinking, there were many, many actual conservatives that are disappointed that he decided not to run.

  4. Well, the money went somewhere.
    There were civil servants who helped.
    Everyone involved remains silent, it works.

    An old formula.

  5. The only way malfeasance is ever uncovered is when 1 someone involved objects and 2 can benefit by squealing but will avoid being prosecuted themselves.
    A motivator to ratting out usually comes about when someone feels they didn’t get their cut or they think someone else is benefiting too much.
    Obviously if there is malfeasance going on, it would appear all the conspirators are content with their take and have not gotten greedy. But I posit one caveat.
    Before we break out a hue and cry on an assumption (no matter how well founded) it’s best to let the awkward questions persist so that the cabinet dim lights like McKenna struggle to respond intelligently.

  6. 53,211 glorious examples of our stunningly uncurious media.
    Amazing what you can buy for 2 billion.
    Complete and utter compliance.
    Seems the media’s fascination with people “taking a Knee” might be personal.

  7. As strange as this statement might be on this site, there are civil servants who do care about the country and the malfeasance of government.
    I can’t imagine the CPC are not getting the proverbially brown manilla which documents librano skulduggery.

    By the time the next election rolls around conservatives will have so much on the libranos that they should win in a cakewalk……

    1. Well said.

      We need whistle blowers like Alan Cutler. He blew the Sponsorship Scandal wide open. Remember him Abt?

      1. NR

        I do indeed. It takes guts to do what he did. Whistle blowers end their careers if they are found out, so great is the risk.

        The scandals are mounting by the day. Once the period of grace is over and legitimate criticism of the government’s handling of the virus crisis starts the attack will be withering.

        The libranos know it’s coming and will probably take their chances at an early election.

    2. Trapper

      I concur that there are honourable civil servants.
      The problem is that any politician pledging smaller government appears to them as an existential threat.
      Smaller government to a bureaucracy means doing what they do now with smaller budgets and less people. The concept of a government that potentially wants to limit what would be to the bureaucracy career opportunities would put them at odds. Just ask anyone in the oil and gas sector how they feel about politicians pledging green policies and you will hear the same concerns.
      Conservatives, the ones that believe government should be limited, are at a political disadvantage, especially with those that want a lifetime career in the civil service.

  8. McKenna’s portfolio is traditionally a large spending one. I’m sure Monsieur Champagne, the former Minister, had some involvement in this current mess.

    These Liberals are a Criminal Organization. Everyone in the upper echelons must’ve ‘got’ a bonus in their paycheck. Isn’t the loss of documentation for lost money proof of malfeasance?

    Liberals need to be fed the traditional, “For God’s Sake Leave” Speech made by the Leader of the Opposition Party. In this speech the opposition leader points out the crimes of the ruling party.

    Remember when Conservative Leader Stephen Harper made his case (against the Jean Chretien Liberals) regarding the crimes committed via the Liberal’s “Sponsorship Scandal?” It was very powerfully done.

    For the Liberals, it should be game over. The Government ought to be dissolved and Canadians heading towards an election.

  9. “Politicians are the same all over. They promise to build a bridge where there is no river.”

    Nikita S. Khruschev

  10. Ha…There is actually Proof of that in the Emirati desert. Abu Dhabi If memory serves me correct.
    They built an overpass out into the desert to connect 2 opposing sides of a wide boulevard … it went out – up over the sand – down and now you’re going in the opposite direction on the same road.

    Only in the Middle East….

  11. Those projects are like Schrödinger’s Cat. They exist but don’t exist. Just ask Canada’s #1 quantum computing expert.

  12. Pete Poilievre is a strange fellow.
    Typical #LibCons playing Mr. Righteous while having a clown ineffective “leader” & who was MP while Harper kept our doors wide open to mass immigration.

  13. Canada has a financial short fall…. They have created a Slush Fund for Foreign Fund transfers… The time is 30 days that the Funds disappear into a float, like it is done in the EU…. The Canadian policy became effective in 2019….

    Should be unlawful in all jurisdictions because when (not If) the Government Fails… Billions of the people’s money is lost…. 3 days Max is the USA.Fed standard for calculating M2 money supply. The USA Banking Industry MUST cease transfers to Canada unless they are Completed within 3 days…

    JMHO

  14. So let us ask physicists: Is it scientifically possible for an infrastructure project to vanish into thin air?

    It isn’t the project that vanishes, it’s the funding. A Liberal puts the money into a paper bag and “Voila!” it vanishes.(scuze my French)

  15. “I am entitled to my entitlements”
    So sayeth the Natural RULING Party of Canada.
    What you stupid Western Peons thought this was a democracy?
    “The peasants are revolting,let us replace them”.

    Ethics,accountability and personal responsibility are such dated concepts,so “Western”,these old ideas have not applied in Central Canada since we elected Pierre The Idiot,rewarding a Nazi Supporting Draft dodging Deviant.
    N.E.P.
    Was passed by Parliament.
    Even then Western Citizens could see .
    That they chose to “Reform” says much for their Patriotism,which was rewarded by ever more insane spending and theft by our Eastern Comrades.

    Can Ahh Duh is a Zombie,bits will fall off as it staggers to doom.
    Praise the Lord and Stash the ammunition.
